What happend to KAudioCreator in KDE4?

This program was part of the kdemultimedia package in KDE3, but it is no longer present in the KDE4 version. Where to get it from?

A bit late seeing this, but I was wondering the same thing.  It was definately my preferred "ripper" and I was about to do some today after updating to KDE4..  presumably there is no independant package and it isn't officially ported to KDE4 yet.

I use the Asunder gtk2 CD ripper and encoder, from community, waiting for the porting of KAudioCreator to KDE 4.

I know it's been one-a-half month since the last message in here and more than three since first asking about it. Well, I created a package that makes KAudioCreator available in KDE4 again. It's my first contribution to AUR so comments are welcome. With the exception of "Encode file" everything works.

You can also use audex : http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=20920

It's the equivalent of kaudiocreator, but for KDE4. Not mature enough to make it to the kdemultimedia package, but a neat little tool IMO.

Re: What happend to KAudioCreator in KDE4?

Hi, I compile audex (first from the aur but now from the last source 0.62b) without problem, but it dosn't work.. It say "drive error", but the device is right configured /dev/sr0 (I try with other software like soundjuicer and vlc and they run correctly with the device sr0..) What is the problem?

I'm using arch 64bit with kde4.1.3 from kdemod repo..

Thanks!

[edit] I saw the dmesg error: and audex say /dev/sr1 (?) no cd (beacouse the cd is in the dev sr0 like I setted in the config ).. I put a cd in the sr1 device and it run.. But why ??

Maybe it's because /dev/sr1 is hard-coded into audex, while true path to the cd varies from computer to computer? I don't know, kaudiocreator works fine for me (haven't tested it on x64 however).

The problem is that my 2 cd drive don't work... (it continue to put out the cd .. but is very old.. I think is normal.. and it made this just with fedora and other distro...) and audex is by defoult setted at the /dev/sr0 but it read from the sr1 ...
