I access an unmounted audio CD using location 'media:/cdrom0' in Konqueror and try to copy 'files' from the MP3 folder to the local hard disk. The copy proceeds OK for a while before failing with the message "The process for the media protocol died unexpectedly". I am presented with options to 'Cancel' (which aborts the copy), 'Skip' and 'Auto skip' (which abort the current file and move on to the next) Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Access MP3 'virtual' directory on an audio CD using location 'media:/cdrom0/MP3' 2. select some 'virtual' MP3 files 3. Copy to a directory on the hard disk Actual Results: After copying some data (sometimes a whole file), the process aborts with the message "The process for the media protocol died unexpectedly" Expected Results: The selected files should be copied as MP3s to the selected directory. If I use the location 'audiocd:/MP3' in konqueror, and attempt to copy the MP3 files I periodically get the message 'AudioCD: Disk damage detected on this track, risk of data corruption' but on closing the message box, the copy process continues without skipping the current file. It looks like whatever produces this message is not handled gracefully when using the 'media' protocol.
The media protocol is quite new and there were some issues related to displaying messages (e.g.: http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=102086). So, it is almost surely not gentoo's fault, I suggest to report it at bugs.kde.org if it's not already reported (or maybe it's already fixed for 3.4.1?...)
