I ripped some music some time ago when I did not have any mp3 players. Well now I have one and I would like to put the files on an mp3 so I can get many on a cd. I looked and had I done so when I ripped I could have done it easily. Now I would like to take the wav files and make them mp3 but I can not seem to do so. It would seem like I could use the same KD3 module as it knows how but I could not find a way to do it. does anyone have an idea how to make the conversion? Thanks in advance for any help you can offer. Bob -- Robert A. Rawlinson

Thanks in advance for any help you can offer. Bob Audacity,which is installed by default in 9.3 will convert most music files to mp3 ( if you have lame installed ) or ogg ( better sound at same compression levels) or either to wavs .. I think there is also a program called sox?? that does similar and might even convert to other file systems flac or suchlike music files

I like to use notlame in a script http://users.rsise.anu.edu.au/~conrad/not_lame/ Dump all your wavs into a directory, put notlame in there too, then run this script #!/bin/bash for file in *.wav; do ./notlame -h $file $file.mp3 done I agree with jfweber's suggestion to consider ogg. I never use mp3 anymore, only ogg. My script is: #! /bin/bash for file in *.wav; do oggenc $file -q 9 done Bryan ******************************************************** Powered by SuSE Linux 9.2 Professional KDE 3.3.0 KMail 1.7.1 This is a Microsoft-free computer Bryan S.

Hello everybody Some applications in my system cannot play sound when I require it. let me try to explain : If, in the KDE configuration center --> sound system configuration I click on the test button, I can hear the test sound, therefore I think that it is not an hardware problem. If I try to associate sound to certain window manager events (for a example when a new window appear), I can't hear anything if I cliclk on the "play" button near the name of the sound and naturally I never hear sound when a new window appear. But, what surprise me, some application like kalarm or amsn for example can play sound. Similar problem when I try to play music cd. With kscd I don't hear anything, but with Gnome CD player (on KDE) or a player named "Goobox 0.7.1" no problem. But kscd find my disck since it display the right name of the artist and the tracks of the disc, and it increase the "time counter" if I click on plan Did you have an idea what I've done wrong during the installation ?

claude have you found a solution to this? I am experiencing the same symtoms in SuSE 9.1 Pro with KDE 3.4.1. Have not suceeded in upgrading to 3.4.2 because of numerous dependences. My audio card is a SBLive! 5.1 Digital Model SB0220. -- Russbucket

Similar problem when I try to play music cd. With kscd I don't hear anything, but with Gnome CD player (on KDE) or a player named "Goobox 0.7.1" no problem. But kscd find my disck since it display the right name of the artist and the tracks of the disc, and it increase the "time counter" if I click on plan Not sure about the rest, but with kscd at least, do you have a cable from the CD drive to the sound card? I believe that kscd requires this (plays analog sound as opposed to digital). Other players can play CDs digitally so do not require this cable.

I believe Kscd can use the digital input too.

It was possible in KDE shipped with 9.2. In 9.3 the check box for digital input, in the kscd config, is gone. Likewise in KDE 3.4.2 (SuSE RPMs). -- Arun Khan Linux is like a wigwam - no gates, no windows, apache inside

(1) Make sure that lame is installed, if not get it from packman.
(2) Encode the wav's with lame. For good sound qualities, you can use:
(a) Desktop- "lame --preset standard

You must be aware that mp3 is a proprietary format, and thus SuSE does not include converters to it. They can not do so legally. You can, however, use other formats like ogg, that are free and tools are included - unfortunately, few players (not computers) support it. Or you may want to compile or get "lame" to do the mp3 encoding. I would recommend using "grip", it manages the full process calling the appropriate tools.
