Software update: K3b 0.11.10

K3b is a program to burn CDs and DVDs. It works under Linux and is optimized for KDE. Basically it’s little more than a GUI, as the actual burning work is done by the command line utilities cdrecord, cdrdao, and growisofs. The developers have indicated that the next major release is yet to come and they have therefore decided to release bugfix version 0.11.10. The changelog shows the following changes:

Here’s a list of changes:

• Support Mp3 files starting with multiple ID3 tags.
• Improved ~ handling in the QuickDirSelector.
• Save/Load composer fields in audio projects.
• Save/Load default DVD Copy reading device.
• Fixed cdrecord output parsing on Debian.
• Added checks for all TEAC R5XS compatible (and thus non-MMC) writers. They will be properly detected now.
• Fixed writing speed detection with some DVD writers.
• Fixed capacity detection with some DVD writers.
• Fixed VideoCD creation with enabled PBC.
• Remember the last directory in the file browser.
• Do not remove successfully created CD/DVD copy images if the writing fails and the user requested to keep the image.
