I tried burning MP3's to disk and it told me it didn't recognize the format. I tried converting them over with no luck. How do you get K3B to recognize MP3's? How do you convert files over to Flac using K3B? Thanks.

To get K3B "recognize" mp3 files as audio (and not just data files) you'll need an mp3 plugin for it. Most distributions don't have it preinstalled for the same reason why most distributions don't have audio players' mp3 plugins installed, but it's available if you want it. Last time I installed it on Fedora and another time on Ubuntu, it was just a matter of searching the .rpm or .deb from the web and installing it; not sure about SuSE though. I remember there is already at least one thread about this thing (having K3B burn mp3 files/decode/recode them), so you might want to search for it here at LQ too. If SuSE is as easy as Fedora/Ubuntu, you should just find the mp3 plugin SuSE specific rpm from the web and install it.

Thanks for the response. I'll search the web for it. If anyone has done this in Suse please let me know how you did it. I would really appreciate it. I looked through Yast, but I didn't see a MP3 plugin for K3B.
