Package: src:vlc Version: 3.0.0~rc2-1 Severity: normal Hello, vlc promises to be able to convert and save media. It used to work on single files, but failed big time on multiple files, such as the tracks of a CD.
Using vlc 2.2.8-2+b1, if one proceeds as described in https://www.aimersoft.com/rip-dvd/vlc-rip-cd.html to attempt to rip a CD, then after inserting the name of a "Destination File" and clicking "Start", vlc attempts to overwrite repetedly all tracks into this single file. When proceeding to the next track vlc discovers that the file is there already (!) and proposes to either overwrite it or skip the new track. Eventually, one ends up with one track ripped only. This should be corrected with the request to input a "Destination folder", rather than a file name for output. vlc should then create in that folder files with sensible names such as Track01.wav Track02.wav etc. Comments to that aimersoft page report failure. The current fresher vlc 3.0.0~rc2-1 has the further problem that, when one clicks on "Start", it fails with the following error: [000055ed8e243b10] main playlist: playlist is empty QXcbConnection: XCB error: 3 (BadWindow), sequence: 21090, resource id: 9037074, major code: 40 (TranslateCoords), minor code: 0 and then simply starts playing the CD first track (!). The selected file remains empty. This report refers to two likely unrelated bugs. Correcting the newer QXcbConnection bug anyway would not make vlc any more usable for ripping: please fix both problems. Thanks in advance!
