[Kreatecd-devel] Feature Request

[Rivyn (C. S. <ri...@ma...>]

Hello,

I use KreateCD as my primary method of burning CDs.  It's not quite as
intuitive as one would desire, but it works great and I haven't lost a CD
except for once when I tried burning files from across the local network ;P.

Anyways, I know KDE2 isn't going to be out for a while, but when it is, and/or
whenever a kreatecd for qt2.1/kde2 is developed, I'd like to see an easy way to
drag files right into the kreatecd window from konqueror.  Maybe make the view
a split view, with a column on the left, and a larger area on the right listing
the track contents (either of which you could drag 'n' drop files to).  I think
this would make it a lot easier for new users, and quicker for regular users.

And how about MP3 support for MP3 files added to an audio track?  Currently,
you can only use WAVs.  It's easy enough to make WAVs from the MP3s using XMMS,
then add the WAVs to an audio track, but it would be much nicer if KreateCD
could do this automatically, even if it just frontended a mp3 --> wav type
program.  This could be added anytime, as opposed to the previous idea.

Is the 'Update Track' button really necessary?  Why not just make it automatic
when you press the 'Write CD' button?  Would offer a simpler UI.

Most importantly, something which KreateCD is not responsible for.  Is there a
way to do 'Disc-At-Once' audio CDs or is that dependant on CDrecord?  I
currently have Windows installed on a small partition with Adaptec Easy-CD
Creator, which I use only for this purpose when I need to.  I'd rather not
reboot, let alone use Windows.  Is there any way to do disc-at-once in linux?

Thanks for your time.
