I have searched the internet and the more I find, the more confused I get on the above subject. Here are the confusion parts. KDE Control center is supposed to have a CDDB Retrieval under sound & Multimedia. It does not. It has Names tab under Audio CD of which I have found no information on. Konqueror should use CDDB-get to get the music titles when browsing the audio CD. It does not. Amarok should uses CDDB-get to show the song titles on the audio cd. It does not and is probably related to the Konqueror problem. CD Ripper gets the music titles, I guess from CDDL-get, but will not save as mp3-mp4, only FLAC and Ogg. I have installed lame, CDDB-get library and CDDB-get-perl modulesl, xine, and everything else that I found that should make it work. It just refuses to work. Does anyone have a solution for either getting CD ripper (sound juicer) to output mp3-mp4 or get amarok to use the CDDL-get, or what ever is required to show the music title? I have been working on this for two weeks now and have had no success. I figure there is a configuration setting somewhere that no one is saying anything about. Art

CDDB is in KsCD.

KsCD then CDDB, only track numbers show up. Click the Fetch Info, nothing happens. Art

Did you configure it? Click on the Extras button, then Configure...

OK, got the titles to listing and can play with KsCD but that still does not solve whole problem. I want to save the music to the ipod sync directory on the machine. Amarok, which is supposed to work, will not read the audio cd (/dev/hdc) and will show music titles, but when I try to play one of the songs, it comes up cannot read the cdrom, where k3b, sount juicer, etc will.

Did you check you permission sets? This maybe a problem. Also, in reference to you post about kong and audio CDs, I to am having problems with kde as well. Not specifically with CDs (though I haven´t tried it yet) but with kded crashing with certain apps (i.e. unloaded kdenewsticker and now it won´t let it run anymore, if I run as root it says could not connect to xserver:0 and that kded probably crashed - though no overt indication that this is correct has been found or alerted). This also might be due to U.S. laws related to copyright material (thank you again RIAA/MPAA - putzes!). I still don´t get the significance of cache-(machine name) in the .kde dir. I have a feeling this may play a part it seems, but am still trying to get a handle on this (not a problem in previous version of KDE).
