I’m using k3b to rip an audio CD and save it on my computer. It fails with:

Devices
-----------------------
LITE-ON DVDRW SOHW-1633S BPSA (/dev/sr0, CD-R, CD-RW, CD-ROM, DVD-ROM, DVD-R, DVD-RW, DVD+R, DVD+RW, DVD+R DL) [DVD-ROM, DVD-R Sequential, DVD-RW Restricted Overwrite, DVD-RW Sequential, DVD+RW, DVD+R, DVD+R Dual Layer, CD-ROM, CD-R, CD-RW] [SAO, TAO, RAW, SAO/R96P, SAO/R96R, RAW/R16, RAW/R96P, RAW/R96R, Restricted Overwrite] %7]

System
-----------------------
K3b Version: 2.0.2
KDE Version: 4.4.4 (KDE 4.4.4) "release 3"
QT Version:  4.6.3
Kernel:      2.6.34.8-0.2-default

Any idea what’s causing this and how to fix it?

NOTE: It only fails with mp3, ogg works (but I can’t use ogg because my player doesn’t understand that format).

So, again, let me recommend that you search the Packman repository for asunder, install it and see how it works. Further, did you add Packman and update k3b from that repository? Some things like mp3’s require a Packman update to work properly due to some restricted media formats not included with openSUSE.

Thank You,

Make sure you have k3b-codecs, lame and flac (in case you need flac)
Use the switcher if you didn’t:
