Vanilla &tde;, without any extra -ingredients, will be able to rip your CDs. But to encode them, you'll need -to install the relevant codecs. At the moment, Ogg Vorbis, MP3 and FLAC formats -are supported. To enable encoding to these formats, you'll have to install -libogg, lame and flac respectively. How exactly you install these depends on -your distribution: take a look at their documentation to find out how.</para> - -<para>Once you have your favourite codec(s) installed, open &kcontrolcenter; and navigate your way to <menuchoice><guimenu>Sound & -Multimedia</guimenu><guimenuitem>Audio CDs</guimenuitem></menuchoice> -and configure the settings on the various tabs to your liking. You can leave -everything in the default state if you so wish, but it's helpful to take a -look so you at least know what's on offer. Again, take a look at -<menuchoice><guimenu>Sound & Multimedia</guimenu><guimenuitem>CDDB -Retrieval</guimenuitem></menuchoice> and change anything that's not to your -liking. <acronym>CDDB</acronym>, in case you didn't know, stands for CD DataBase (or Compact -Disc DataBase in it's more free flowing form). This functionality enables -&tde; to retrieve the Artist/Album/Track information about your CDs from the -Internet. This metadata is also used to write tags to the MP3 or Ogg files -that you'll be encoding your CDs to anytime now.</para> - - -<mediaobject> -<imageobject> -<imagedata format="PNG" fileref="ripsettings.png"/> -</imageobject> -</mediaobject> - -</sect2> - -<sect2 id="audio-cd-recipe"> -<title>Recipe</title> - -<para>Without further delay, let's get down to the business of being cool. -First, pop in the CD you want to rip (obviously!). Next, fire up a -&konqueror; window and open the <guilabel>Services</guilabel> tab on the Navigation panel. The -Navigation panel sits on the left side of the window, as shown in the -screenshot below.

If it's taking some time to show -anything, it's because it's trying to fetch information about the CD from -the CDDB database you configured earlier.</para> - -<para>In the screenshot below, you can see the contents of the Ogg Vorbis -folder. It shows all the songs in the Ogg format; it even shows their file -size! But, you and I both know that audio CDs don't contain Ogg tracks. So -what exactly is happening here?</para> - - -<mediaobject> -<imageobject> -<imagedata format="PNG" fileref="oggfolder.png"/> -</imageobject> -</mediaobject> - - -<para>All the folders you see under Audio CD Browser are virtual folders. -They show contents of the CD through different filters, so to speak. When -you open the Ogg Vorbis folder, you are actually seeing the contents of the -CD <emphasis>as if</emphasis> it were stored in the Ogg format. You can go through the other -folders and you'll find MP3, flac and wav representations of the CD's -contents. You can even see the approximate file sizes when encoded in the -various formats.</para> - - -<para>So how do we rip and encode the CD? I think you can guess the answer -by now. Just decide which format you wish to rip to, open that folder, and -copy and paste those files in your target folder. That's it! &tde; will start -ripping and encoding the files on the fly! If you copy any of the files in -the <guilabel>Full CD</guilabel> folder, you'll be ripping the entire CD as -one continuous stream.</para> - - -<mediaobject> -<imageobject> -<imagedata format="PNG" fileref="rip.png"/> -</imageobject> -</mediaobject> - - -<!-- Add links to "further reading" here --> -<itemizedlist> -<title>Related Information</title> -<listitem><para>The <application>amaroK</application> website at -<ulink url="http://amarok.sf.net">http://amarok.sf.net</ulink> has the -latest news and information about <application>amaroK</application>.</para> -</listitem> -</itemizedlist> - -<!-- TODO: Add a link to the full audiocd documentation as soon as --> -<!-- it's fixed :-) --> -</sect2> -</sect1> |
