Re: Problem ripping Audio CD

Well I took a look at it and noticed what you mentioned.  I tried a different 
song (without the extra special characters) with the following command line:

lame -h --tt Inside Out --ta David Meece --tl Once In A Lifetime --ty 1993 --
tc - /music//David_Meece/Once_In_A_Lifetime/01-Inside_Out.mp3

And the error is "lame: excess arg In".  I'm thinking that K3b is supplying 
something to lame via stdin, but there is something wrong in the command line 
that is in K3b's configuration (following, but without the quotes):

"lame -h --tt %t --ta %a --tl %m --ty %y --tc %c - %f"

FWIW, I'm using Kubuntu 8.10 and looked into using KAudioCreator, but there 
seems to be a dependency problem with kdemultimedia-kio-plugins that gdebi 
can't resolve.  The version installed on the system apparently isn't 
compatible with KAudioCreator.  This is unfortunate because it looks like it's 
just the ticket.

Thanks for the help.
