K3b

Ripping to mp3

Install the lame non-free package.

Configure Lame Settings ⇒ Configure K3b ⇒ Plugins ⇒ Audio Encoder ⇒ K3b External Audio Econder:

Name	Mp3 (Lame)
Extension	mp3
Command	lame –preset standard –tt %t –ta %a –tl %m –ty %y –tc %c - %f
Swap Byte Order	True
Write Wave Header	True

The default byte ordering assumed for WAVE data files is little-endian, so it is the i386 architecture, so the Swap Byte Order should not be required. But I need this option, otherwise extracted audio is white noise.

Byte order swapping can also be accomplished by the lame -x switch.
