Arson Description

Arson is a KDE frontend to various CD burning, and ripping tools. Arson is a KDE frontend to various CD burning, and ripping tools. Arson project was originally begun to burn audio CDs because i could find no other frontends which used cdrdao (in disk at once mode), which could decode various encoded audio formats (mp3, ogg), and displayed accurate track length as the playlist was cre But as usual once the initial plans were implemented I just kept going...Arson has expanded to be a CD ripper (with many output formats), a VCD/Music/Data burner, a CD copier, a device unlocker, and a CDRW blanker. And that's in the current version!Here are some key features of "Arson":· Full progress displayed for all lengthy operations· Drag and drop from Konqueror to create play lists· Audio CD Burning Accurate track length tally displayed as track list growsCan burn using cdrdao or cdrecord (in Disk at Once, or Track at Once)Supports various audio file types, currently: · Wav· Mp3 (decode using either mpg123 or LAME)· Ogg Vorbis (optional)· SHN· FLAC (optional) Can optionally normalize (in batch or mix mode) all tracks before burning to even out volumesSupports sox to fix broken audio tracks (tracks not in 44100Khz, 16bit, stereo)Can open, and optionally verify MD5 disk setsCan load track lists from m3u filesSupports editing and burning CD-Text info with cdrdao · VCD Burning Can create and burn VCDs and SVCDs · Data CD Burning Existing ISO, and CUE/BIN filesImage creation/burning from single directory treeComplete filesystem creationISO images burned with either cdrdao or cdrecord · Audio CD ripping/encoding (rip tracks from CD to file) Can rip audio tracks using cdda2wav OR cdparanoiaEncoding in various output file formats, currently: · Wav· Mp3 (bladeenc, and LAME supported)· Ogg Vorbis (optional)· FLAC (optional)· AU· CDR· AIFF· AIFC CdIndex support (a free CDDB-like service)HTTP retrievalFreedb support (a free, open CDDB service) HTTP, and local retrievalHTTP, and local submit CD-Text retrievalSupports generic SCSI and cooked IOCTL interfacesAuto tagging of MP3 files using id3v2Configurable audio quality presets (bitrate, channels, etc) · CD-to-CD copying Direct copyCD-to-file-to-CD copyingUsing either readcd/cdrecord or cdrdao · Data CD ripping Rip to ISO file with readcdRip to CUE/BIN files with cdrdao · Multisession burning· Device unlock/reset· CDRW BlankingWhat's New in 0.9.8 Beta2 Release:· Fixed bug #829892 - Icon installation broken· Fixed bug #815006 - Incorrect Freedb Choices.
