K3b v1.0 released

Posted in

From KDE Apps:

Version 1.0 of K3b, the KDE CD and DVD ripping and burning application, has been released. Changes (long, but incomplete, list here) include:

  • Video DVD KIO slave, enabling K3b to be used to browse the discs in Konqueror
  • New device menu, showing all possible actions relating to a device
  • Proper unmounting of media before ejecting
  • New media manager, so that the program always knows which devices contain which media
  • Completely rewritten video DVD ripping and transcoding support
  • Support for libcdio (rather than libcdparanoia) and Cdrkit (Debian fork of cdrtools).

Also see the announcement with some screenshots. More shots here (from the old 0.12 version, though I'm sure they'll be updated); downloads (source, links to several distro binaries) here. Requires KDE 3.2.
