Thanks for the new section on audio CD's. There are a few thing I don't quite understand, though. The first bullet after the image seems to imply, that audio data can be encoded in the cda format. However, that format only contain indexing information (according to Wikipedia).
The second bullet after the image I understand as saying, that the Whole CD folder contains one file for each track and each format. I get confused by the word 'concatenating', though, which might indicate, that several files are joined into one.
If I understand the situation correctly, it might be better to say:
*a CDA folder containing indexing information in the usual CDA format
*a Whole CD folder containing files of each track in every format
or somethink like that. What do You think? --[[User:Claus chr|Claus chr]] 31 october 2009

my main gripe about dolphin is it doesn't show files or folders whose name begins with a dot -- if there's an option to show them, why is it so hard to find?

Where is has always been, even in Konqueror KDE 3: View menu -> Show hidden files. --Jucato
