K3b Version 1.0
Thanx for downloading K3b - The CD Kreator
These are the features so far:
- the most userfriendly interface ever ;-)
- themable
- Media-centric user interface:
- Select the medium to use for burning instead of the device
- K3b always knows about all optical devices and inserted media and adjusts the UI accordingly
- writing audio-cds
- On-the-fly decoding of many audio formats through plugin struxture
(decoding plugins for mp3, ogg vorbis, flac, wave, musepack, wma, aiff, and others)
- CD-Text support
- Metadata support, fill CD-Text from metadata or via Internet queries (CDDB + Musicbrainz)
- little gimmick: hide the first track (so that you have to search back from the
beginning of the cd to find it)
- volume level normalization (only when writing with an image)
- multiple sources for one track possible (merging of tracks, splitting of tracks,
adding silence of arbitrary length)
