I have used gentoo for a while, but am new to audio.

Sound-juicer successfully rips CDs to .ogg files, which are successfully
played by totem.

I would like to produce .mp3 audio for some instead of .ogg.

SJ (sound-juicer) lists mp3 in its "edit profiles..." option but does
not include it in the "Output Format" drop down list.

The SJ ebuild says

"If ${PN} does not rip to some music format, please check your"
"USE flags on media-plugins/gst-plugins-meta"

I did check and the ones I don't have set seem unrelated to mp3.

allan ~ # eix --nocolor gst-plugins-meta
[I] media-plugins/gst-plugins-meta
Available versions: (0.10) 0.10 ~0.10-r1 0.10-r2
{X a52 alsa dvb dvd esd ffmpeg flac mad mpeg mythtv ogg oss theora vorbis xv}
Installed versions: 0.10-r2(0.10)(12:26:39 11/17/0Cool(X alsa dvd esd ffmpeg mad mpeg ogg vorbis xv -a52 -dvb -flac -mythtv -oss -theora)

Description: Meta ebuild to pull in gst plugins for apps

Any help would be appreciated.

thanks,

Maximilian Bräutigam suggested I use lame for the actual encoding.

Prowling around bugs.gentoo.org showed that my problem has occurred
before and indeed lame is part of the solution. Apparently you have to
"know" that the right thing is to emerge both

gst-plugins-taglib and gst-plugins-lame

Now all is well.
