I don't know whether my problem is related or not. I have
many .mp3 files on my HD, ripped from CDs using Karmic
and previous kubuntu versions. now got kubuntu 10.04.1
I attempted, using K3b to produce an audio cd from an
mp3 directory, it seemed to succeed, having burnt it though,
the automounter found it OK but it refused to play with Amarok
or any other audio player(VCH et al). And all the directories on
the disk were empty except for fullcd as mentioned above.
So being stupid I burnt a data disk with the mp3 directory using
K3b - seemed to work OK. But the auto mounter refused to notice
this disk at all.
Just to confuse the issue still further the mp3 files on the data disk
played perfectly on my win 7 machine - and the audio CD wouldn't
show up anywhere in win 7.
I reckon the developers have been copyrighted into limbo and been
forced to b&*($r up a perfectly good audio/video set up and leave us
in kubuntu linux with this mess.
