I'm searching for an easy way to rip audio CD's and read that konqueror can do this, by simply typing audiocd:/ in the address bar.
With kde 3.1 I got an error message which I don't remember, but now, with kde 3.2 the mouse pointer changes to the clock and nothing more. I once waited long enough and there came a message "file not found" but that might be because I opened the drive when I realized that my system was under heavy load caused by konqueror.
My system is SuSE 8.1 with KDE 3.2, a CD-ROM and a CD-RW drive installed. There is no problem playing an audio CD with xmms, no matter which drive it is in.
What's wrong here?
Regards Mario
Hopefully nothing - just put a cd in the rom drive, type
:-) Believe me I didn't forget this.
audiocd:/ (and press Enter/Return or whatever) and it should read your cd as wav/ogg/mp3 files plus other options. If you have freedb enabled it will display album/track titles as well.
This is what I tried before but id doesn't work.
Or in konq click on devices in the navigation panel, then cdrom which again should read the cd.
If I do this konqueror tries to mount the cdrom which is surely not the right thing to do for an audio CD. And of course this fails, no matter with which cd drive I do this. I get an error from kio_devicesmounthelper that the filesystem type could not be determined. As I said I have no problem mounting data cds nor do I have problems playing audio cds in xmms. Am I missing something? What are the prerequisites? I remember when upgrading to kde 3.2 I had to omit some rpms because of conflicts or missing dependencies which I was not able to resolve. The following are left over up to now: kdeaddons3-kate-3.1.4-39.i586.rpm kdeaddons3-konqueror-3.1.4-39.i586.rpm kdeaddons3-sound-3.1.4-39.i586.rpm If I try to install them I get error: failed dependencies: libkateinterfaces.so is needed by kdeaddons3-kate-3.1.4-39 libkmultitabbar.so.0 is needed by kdeaddons3-kate-3.1.4-39 libkonqsidebarplugin.so.0 is needed by kdeaddons3-konqueror-3.1.4-39 libnoatun.so.0 is needed by kdeaddons3-sound-3.1.4-39 libnoatuncontrols.so.0 is needed by kdeaddons3-sound-3.1.4-39 libnoatuntags.so.0 is needed by kdeaddons3-sound-3.1.4-39 Is any of them required for the audiocd:/ to work? Or anything else that I might have overlooked? Where do I get these deps from? Any help is much appreciated. Mario
