I am looking forward to ripping several audio cds.

I want Dolphin to create FLAC files for me, and I want it to name the destination files exactly the way I want them named.

I want the conversion process to be configured exactly the way I want it performed.

I raised the help file for Dolphin and located help for the audiocd:/ kioslave, it is quite old, 8 years old, it refers to Konqueror and it explains there is a configuration dialog. This information is of no use right now, there is no configuration dialog anywhere I have tried. This dialog sounds like it could be exactly what I need.

I would be interested in knowing if accurate and thoroughly explained details of these powerful features could be brought into the light for the public to explore. On the other hand, maybe there already exists a more thorough explanation in some other location?

Code: Select all

kcmshell4 audiocd

These powerful features are explained in Khelpcenter --> Kioslaves --> audiocd

Your kcmshell command helps bring up what might be the configuration dialog which is mentioned in the help file, but what do I click, inside Dolphin, to activate that configuration dialog?

explained in Khelpcenter --> Kioslaves --> audiocd

Not adequately explained, since the directions for configuration dialog are completely non functional.

I could suggest that the helpcenter document should be TESTED every time KDE drops a minor update on us, and then state the document was tested to work:

Code: Select all

Revision 2.3, Retested at KDE4.8.

The help file discussion about audiocd having a 'configuration dialog' went uncorrected after porting from Konqueror to Dolphin, but is there a way to configure it in Dolphin? That change represents a pretty major functionality change yet the help document isn't accurate. Just suggesting that a help document would be more credible if it could be 100% tested at some point after its 'last revision' - an '8 year old revision' is less meaningful to a user than being 'tested in the current release'.

This is not configurable in Dolphin itself, but it is configurable in System Settings > Multimedia > Audio CDs. (Which is the same configuration dialog which is launched by kcmshell4 audiocd).
