Version: 1.70.0 (using KDE 4.4.4) OS: Linux Whenever I rip an audio CD with k3b (format:mp3, encoder:lame), the track number is not recorded in the file's metadata. It's strange because it's completely fine with recording the track number to the filename, but I can't figure out how to record track numbers to the mp3 (id3?) tags. Album, Artist, Song Title are all present, but without Track Number some software messes the order around. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Insert Audio CD, rip a track, check track with preferred software (ie Amarok). Actual Results: The track number should be recorded. Expected Results: No track number in file metadata. I'll see if it vanishes if I update to a newer factory version, but this bug's been present for a while.
Please go to "Settings"->"Configure K3b"->"Plugins" and click configure button on "External audio encoder" item. Next select "Mp3 (Lame)" and click "Edit". In "Command" see if there is "--tn %n" in lame command string. If not, add it and see if it works. This is probably effect of bug 218614. It's fixed in 1.70, but may still be in effect if you've upgraded K3b from previous version (command string was saved in configure file).
Adding "--tn %n" in the command string fixes it. Thanks a lot! Marking bug as Resolved > Duplicate of 218614. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 218614 ***
