            Bug ID: 446900
           Summary: Changing command line options for lame does not work
                    (ripping mp3 from CD)
           Product: k3b
           Version: 21.08.3
          Platform: Kubuntu Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Copying

SUMMARY

K3B has an option to manually edit command line options that should be passed
to lame when encoding mp3 (ripping audio CD). Those options do not work: no
matter what is inserted into the command line, the resulting mp3 have a bitrate
of 128 kbps.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. insert audio CD, open a dialog to copy it (rip it) to harddrive
2. choose "Lame (mp3)" as the desired output and click on the configuration
button to edit options
3.  default options are:
lame -r --bitwidth 16 --little-endian -s 44.1 -h --tt %t --ta %a --tl %m --ty
%y --tc %c --tn %n

change them to:
lame -r --bitwidth 16 --little-endian -s 44.1 --preset insane --tt %t --ta %a
--tl %m --ty %y --tc %c --tn %n

or use -V 0, or use - b 192, or use any other options which should force lame
to encode mp3's with higher bitrate than 128 kbps.

4. Rip the CD

OBSERVED RESULT
All the resulting mp3's are 128 kbps, no matter what options were used. 

EXPECTED RESULT
Resulting mp3's should be encoded using the options that were specified, which
should be passed to lame.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Kubuntu 20.10

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
The built-in mp3 encoder always encodes with 28 kbps and ignores unicode in id3
tags, so it's even worse.
