audiocd:/ and the ogg vorbis "quality" option

I want to use audiocd:/ to rip my CDs. The configuration panel only lets me configure the bitrate (low, high and medium).
But I don't want to use that old method, I want to use the far better quality option (oggenc -q 7 for example), wich lets oggenc decide the bitrate sothat the quality for all files is constant.

I know I can retrieve wav files from CD, and then encode them with oggenc, but I hope it's possible to configure cdaudio:/ in the way I want, sothat I can retrieve directly my ogg files.

May I ask where this configuration panel is for low-medium-high quality ripping? I can't find it anywhere in Konqui's prefs. :oops:

What version are you using?
It's in CVS HEAD but not in 3.1.

You get it in kcontrol:
Sound & Multimedia -> Audio CDs -> tab "Ogg Vorbis Settings"

BTW: The dialog only shows this option if
you set the encoding method to quality-based
instead of bitrate-based.

Thanks for responding, I'm using 3.1.1 (SuSE 8.2) so I'll have to wait awhile. :x Sounds like a cool new addition though.

Ok, I just install KDE 3.1.94 from cooker on my ML 9.2, but now there is no longer "Audio CDs" in "sound & multimedia" (wich is now only "sound")
