[opensuse] Burning Audio CD from MP3
OSE 11.2 with K3B 2.0.1 I was attempting to create an audio CD from a MP3 file usiing K3B and received the following error: MP3 Audio Decoder plugin not found. K3b could not load or find the MP3 decoder plugin. This means that you will not be able to create Audio CDs from MP3 files. Many Linux distributions do not include MP3 support for legal reasons. Solution: To enable MP3 support, please install the MAD MP3 decoding library as well as the K3b MAD MP3 decoder plugin (the latter may already be installed but not functional due to the missing libmad). Some distributions allow installation of MP3 support via an online update tool. The other popup indicated another alternative, namely converting MP3 to WAV or some other format K3B understands: Unable to handle the following files due to an unsupported format: You may manually convert these audio files to wave using another application supporting the audio format and then add the wave files to the K3b project. I have the following K3B modules installed: k3b k3b-codecs k3b-lang kde3-k3b <== Do I need these if I am using KDE4? kde3-codecs kde3-lang Do I need other modules? Repositories? If there are any articles or threads in the forums covering this, please post the links.

I wish I had had this the first time I installed all the pieces to play MP3! That part still works bur when right clicking on the MP3, choosing Actions and then Create Audo CD, K3b still give the error: Unable to handle the following files due to an unsupported format: You may manually convert these audio files to wave using another application supporting the audio format and then add the wave files to the K3b project. I don't mind manually converting the MP3s to a format K3b understands. Perchance was a conversion program also installed? Command line is fine. Lucky
Good luck.

If you have k3b-codecs properly installed, mp3 should be a supported format. In K3b -> Settings -> Plugins, do you see a list including K3b MAD Decoder? Regards, Tejas -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

It is not there but I cannot find any packages remotely resembling those. A Yast Software Manager search turns up No results. A search for the plugin from within the K3B Settings => Configure K3b => Plugins results in this: MP3 Audio Decoder plugin not found. K3b could not load or find the MP3 decoder plugin. This means that you will not be able to create Audio CDs from MP3 files. Many Linux distributions do not include MP3 support for legal reasons. Solution: To enable MP3 support, please install the MAD MP3 decoding library as well as the K3b MAD MP3 decoder plugin (the latter may already be installed but not functional due to the missing libmad). Some distributions allow installation of MP3 support via an online update tool. Could someone please post the package names I need to install? I looked through the Packman repository from within the Software Manager and saw nothing that might fill the bill.

I think you may be looking for libmad0 and libmad0-32bit. I have madplay installed as well, but don't think (not sure) it is required. These are from Pacman repo. I am using 11.3 though, so not sure about your 11.2. -Mike -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

You need to change all your K3b packages to Packman, it will prompt you with something like: "Vendor change SUSE Linux Products AG --> packman.links2linux.de" and you must accept. Otherwise you will still have the broken K3b packages that ship with openSUSE. You probably should choose in YaST2 sw-single the option to view the package versions and select it there. -- Med Vennlig Hilsen, A.

That was it! I had libmad0 but not libmad0-32bit. K3b shows the MP3 stuff and can both rip audio CD to MP3 or create audio CD from MP3.

You dont want to burn audio cds from MP3 really, but from loseless formats, flac being the most common one.

After few years in factories, I can't hear big difference between mp3 and CD. For sure not with equalizer set for normal hearing and type of music that I listen recently. Your comment is interesting from another perspective. When mp3 was invented, media sizes were much smaller then today, Internet access was dial up, or ISDN. Today saving disk space, or speeding download by sacrificing sound fidelity when using mp3 is not necessary. Although, there is a "small" problem, there is not so many players that can play other then mp3. -- Regards, Rajko -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
