Settings->Configure KAudioCreator->Encoder->OggEnc->Configure Then you can select the command line options you'd like to use. man 1 oggenc will provide you with available options, including bitrate. hth craig -- Check the headers for your unsubscription address For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the archives at http://lists.suse.com Please read the FAQs: suse-linux-e-faq@suse.com

This is what's there at the moment. oggenc -o %o --artist %{artist} --album %{albumtitle} --title %{title} --date %{year} --tracknum %{number} --genre %{genre} %f I know i need to add -q and a value say -q6, but I'm not sure where in the line to add it. -- Check the headers for your unsubscription address For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the archives at http://lists.suse.com Please read the FAQs: suse-linux-e-faq@suse.com

Essentially anywhere as long as you don't insert it in the *middle* of some other option setting. like either *before* the "-o %o" or after that. -- Check the headers for your unsubscription address For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the archives at http://lists.suse.com Please read the FAQs: suse-linux-e-faq@suse.com

That's what I thought, so I tried this oggenc -q6 -o %o --artist %{artist} --album %{albumtitle} --title %{title} --date %{year} --tracknum %{number} --genre %{genre} %f and encoding failed with Cannot place file, unable to make directories. Then I tried oggenc -o %o --artist %{artist} --album %{albumtitle} --title %{title} --date %{year} --tracknum %{number} --genre %{genre} %f -q6 and got the same error. Have I got the q option wrong ? -- Check the headers for your unsubscription address For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the archives at http://lists.suse.com Please read the FAQs: suse-linux-e-faq@suse.com

Read your error message! It can't make the directories. Try checking the directory permissions where the files are being put.

Raoul.
Thank you. I see now what happened, when I tried to add the q option I must have messed up some of the other settings. So I restored the default ogg settings without any additions. That worked so I then added --quality=6 to the end and I can now encode to ogg in the quality I want, Thanks to you and Bruce Marshall for your help.

Have I got the q option wrong ?
Try a blank after the -q or try --quality=6 see 'man oggenc' From the examples: Specifying quality rather than bitrate (to a very high quality mode) oggenc infile.wav -q 6 out.ogg -- Check the headers for your unsubscription address For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the archives at http://lists.suse.com Please read the FAQs: suse-linux-e-faq@suse.com
