If you have a CD with metadata and then put in a CD without metadata, K3b will show metadata from the CD that was previously inserted to the drive.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Insert CD with metadata (possibly RIP it, or just eject it)
2. Insert CD without metadata (no track names, no album name, no artist name, or a mixture of lacking metadata)

K3b will not only show the metadata from the CD that was first inserted, it will also give that metadata to the files it saves while ripping.


EXPECTED RESULT
K3b should behave the same as if it was just opened and no CD had been previously inserted. The metadata should be left blank.

I just tried this with 24.08.3 and it works for me. Please try with a version that is not 3 years old.

Fair enough. I was just using the version in Pop OS 22.04 repositories. Looks like I either have to build from source or use the snap version (there's no flathub version).
