Version: 1.69 (using KDE 4.3.4) OS: Linux Installed from: openSUSE RPMs As you can see in the screenshot !a=, does not work, i.e. it is used as part of the filename and adds "{" and other characters to the filename.

Hi, Looks like you mistyped the pattern. I see on the screenshot: > %A - %T/%n - !a=,%A'{%a - }%t instead of: > %A - %T/%n - !a='%A'{%a - }%t That's why the pattern was not recognized.
I did not type anything, it's the default! Next screenshot to show that the "," is even part of the help. So it's either a translation issue or a bug in k3b.

Yep, the character that looks like a comma after the "a=" is a quotation mark, same for the "'" after "%A". Please re-assign to the German translators in case only German is affected.

I see. It looks like a translation issue, indeed. I'm redirecting this report to i18n. In short: apostrophes used in audio filename patterns should not be changed, as they are a part of pattern syntax (see: http://websvn.kde.org/trunk/extragear/multimedia/k3b/src/rip/k3bcddbpatternwidget.cpp?revision=938581&view=markup)
SVN commit 1064508 by schwarzer: do not use fancy quites in pattern this should really be "fixed" by the developers by adding appropriate context information to the string. Translators cannot know these issues. BUG: 219421 M +5 -5 k3b.po WebSVN link: http://websvn.kde.org/?view=rev&revision=1064508
"quotes" that is. ;)
