Public bug reported: Binary package hint: sound-juicer
Currently, if you want to rip a CD, you do it via Sound Juicer, which talks to gnome-audio-profiles-properties, which talks to gstreamer, which talks to lame (for mp3). Thing is, manually creating switches like the following to do your job: audio/x-raw-int,rate=44100,channels=2 ! lame name=enc mode=1 vbr=4 vbr-min-bitrate=128 vbr-max-bitrate=192 ! xingmux ! id3v2mux is a disgrace to 2008 computing. Users should not have to learn to read and understand these cryptic lines of switches. When iTunes does it so perfectly for 8 years now, why can't the Gnome desktop? And if not for mp3, why not even for OGG? The Ubuntu project (I don't have any hopes that the gnome or gstreamer guys will ever get their act together) should provide its users with something like this: http://eugenia.gnomefiles.org/images/gst-lame.png ** Affects: sound-juicer (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: gnome-audio-profiles-properties -- Audio profiles on gnome are a disgrace https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/242577 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to sound-juicer in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
