While trying to write an audio cd with wav files I had from MS Windows, I get the error while decoding audio message and process stops. Does any body knows what to do here? I already have the wav plugins for k3b. I have fedora core 1. I tried this under kernel 2.4.22 and kerenl 2.6.3 with and without scsi emulation enabled and got the same resuls.

here is the log:

Are you able to burn other media such as standard files and mp3's?

Could you post the output of 'ls -lha /dev/hdc'? It may be a matter of setting the right permissions.

Hi

Yes, I am able to write data cd but not mp3, it does not accept mp3. Here is the results of ls -lha /dev/hdc:

[root@localhost root]# ls -lha /dev/hdc
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 22, 0 Sep 15 16:40 /dev/hdc
[root@localhost root]#

I have the same problem, but I'm trying to use OGG files.
Does anybody know the solution?

----

Actually, I just tried burning an audio cd again, and it worked this time, but I was burning at 1x.

Hi all.

I'm posting this in this thread because it was the first hit I got from Google when searching for this problem.

Go into kcontrol -> Sound & Multimedia -> System Notifications, check 'Apply to all applications', then click 'Turn on all sounds'.

Restart k3b and the problem is gone.

Dave

Edit: Hmmm. Just restarted k3b again, and the problem has returned.

<BUMP>

I'm having the same issue
