Date Added 06 August 2024
What is K3B? | Quote: | K3b is a GUI frontend to the cd recording programs cdrdao and cdrecord. It's aim is to provide a very user friendly interface to all the tasks that come with cd recording.
Features so far
Creating data cds:Add files and folders to your data cd project via drag'n'drop.
Remove files from your project, move files within your project.
Create empty direcories within your project.
Write data cds on-the-fly directly without an image file or with image file. It's also possible to just create the image file and write it to cd later.
Rockridge and Joliet support.
Rename files in your project.
Let K3b rename all the mp3/ogg files you add to your project to a common format like "artist - title.mp3".
For advanced users: support for nearly all the mkisofs options.
Creating audio cds:WAV, MP3, and OGG support so far.
CD-TEXT support. Will automagically be filled in from id3 tags in mp3 files.
Write audio cds on-the-fly without decoding mp3/ogg files to wav or the old fashioned way.
Gimmick: hide the first track within the first pregap on the cd so you have to seek backwards on your cd player to find it.
Creating Video CDs:VCD 1.1, 2.0, SVCD
CD-i support (Version 4)
Creating mixed-mode cds:
CD-Extra (CD-Plus, Enhanced Audio CD) support
CD Ripping:CDDB support via http, cddbp and local cddb directory.
Sophisticated pattern system to automatically organize the ripped tracks in directories and name them according to album, title, artist, and track number.
K3b stores CDDB info of the ripped tracks which will automatically be used as CD-TEXT when adding the ripped files to an audio project.
No SCSI emulation for ATAPI drives nessesary for cd ripping.
DVD Ripping and DivX/XviD encoding
Save/load projects.
Blanking of cdrws.
Retrieving Table of contents and cdr information.
Writing existing iso images to cd.
Writing cue/bin files created for CDRWIN

K3b has just got my vote for the best burning program for linux to date.
Very impressive. Anyone that hasn't tried it..... should. Makes all the others pale in comparision imho. Very slick interface....... i still burn all my iso's via command line though

I've tried it. I still like xcdroast better.
gcombust now supports DVD-R

Ok...I need a burning program to burn cds, iso's, and bins. This program does it all! It has a clean and sleek interface that is easy to use. I recommend it above the rest. I give it the "MUNKY SEAL OF APPROVAL".

I've just started using K3B. I was always a user of XCDRoast myself. I like K3B so far but I haven't decided if it's better than XCDRoast.

xcdroast does it all, too. And has a much cleaner interface.

For me, X-CD-Roast has the worst interface I've ever seen - full of contradictions and misdirection. Referring to X-CD-Roast 0.98alpha14:
First, root has to set up the permitted users and the default configuration, then user can modify the configuration. If the user can modify the configuration, then why bother with having the root do any configuration setup?
After that, the user gets a confusing window under the 'create CD' button: every function under 'Create CD' has a button with the word 'tracks' in it. Me, I'm not burning audio tracks, I'm burning files onto CDRs/CDRWs. Files are not tracks. How do I burn files?
The last session I attempted to burn is always reloaded on a new session.... why? How does a user delete this session (is stored in /var/tmp)?
I frequently burn ISO images onto CDRs as live filesystems (Linux install CDRs)... how does this happen? Under create CD, I see a button called write tracks, but how do I load an ISO9660 image and burn it as a file system and not as a 'track'?
gcombust allows you to select files and burn them as files!
gcombust allows you to read an ISO9660 image and burn it as a filesystem!
Author: Germ, Location: Planet Earth Posted: 17 Dec 2024 06:54 am Post subject:
root allows permissions
root sets up root's config
then the user can run it and set up his own config, which can be completely different from root's.
"The last session I attempted to burn is always reloaded on a new session.... why? How does a user delete this session (is stored in /var/tmp)?"
I have not had this problem. I jumped from alpha12 to alpha15.
"I frequently burn ISO images onto CDRs as live filesystems (Linux install CDRs)... how does this happen? Under create CD, I see a button called write tracks, but how do I load an ISO9660 image and burn it as a file system and not as a 'track'? "
copy the .iso to the directory you designated as the "image directory" during setup. It will show up as if you had read the image from CD with xcdroast. Fire up xcdroast and select "Create CD". about as simple as it gets....
"gcombust allows you to select files and burn them as files!
gcombust allows you to read an ISO9660 image and burn it as a filesystem!"
so does xcdroast. I would suggest reading the manual........

This is a little howto I wrote a while back on how to backup files/directories using XCD-Roast:
* Fire up XCD-Roast
* Click "Create CD" button.
* Click"Master CD" button.
* From the "File/Directory View" window,you can go through the directory tree and select the files/directories you wish to back up.Highlight them and click the "Add" button;the selection(s) should appear in the "Session View" window on the left.
* Click on the"Create Session/Image" tab on the far right.You can calculate the size of the
image you wish to create with the "Calculate Size" button if nescessary.Then click on the "Master to Image File" button and click "OK" when it's finished.
* Now click on the "Write Tracks" button and highlight the image you just mastered from the window on the right and click the "Add" button.Then click on the "Accept Track Layout" and then the "Write Tracks" button.
* Insert a blank CD-R/RW and click "OK".
* After sucsessfully burning the image to CD-R/RW,you can delete the image by clicking on the "Delete Tracks" button.
And that should do it.

With K3b
Screenshot
http://k3b.sourceforge.net/uploads/images/7/audioproject.png
Click New Project
Browse anywhere and drag ANY files you want to burn to the project box.
Click Burn
More Screenshots

For those coming from a windows enviroment K3B works and looks similar to Nero. Makes burning in Linux much easier for newbies.
For iso files... command line is STILL quicker for me.
I keep all my iso's in a directory called MyISOs and have a text file in there with all the burn commands already there for each iso in the file.... i just cut-n-paste the command to burn whatever iso i want to the terminal window 4 minutes later my cd tray pops out with the freshly burned cdr
An example of one of the commands:
cdrecord dev=0,2,0 -v -eject Mandrake92-cd1-ext.i586.iso
