That's just KDE being KDE. kio_audiocd reads the TOC, looks that up in |
12 |
CDDB/FreeCDDB and generates "virtual folders" that contain the "virtual |
13 |
files" representing original wavs, metadata, and metadata-loaded oggs and |
14 |
mp3s. When you move a "virtual file" to a real folder, it kicks in again |
15 |
to actually generate the data represented by pulling the audio data from |
16 |
the CD (and putting though an encoder and adding tags, as needed). |

|

You change change the auto-encoder setting (among other things) under |
19 |
Control Center -> Sound & Multimedia -> Audio CDs. |
