Kodi has integrated Audio-CD (CDDA) ripping functionality. In order to use this feature, first configure the CD ripping settings (to set which encoder quality to use and where to store the files). To Rip the entire CD, highlight the Audio CD from the My Music root listing and choose Rip Audio CD from the context menu. To rip a single track, enter the Audio CD, highlight the desired track, and choose Rip Audio Track from the context menu.
Kodi will automatically download the album-information (via freedb.org CDDB) and update the ID3-tags with the proper information.

Adding audio encoders for Ubuntu
Audio encoders are now binary add-ons, but in Ubuntu they are not packaged with Kodi. Instead, they must be installed through apt-get, similar to how PVR add-ons are installed. In the future this will be something the user can manage from within the Kodi GUI, but for now they must be installed outside of Kodi.
- Quit Kodi if it is already running and open a terminal window
- Type in
sudo apt-get update
and enter your password when prompted - Type in
sudo apt-get install PACKAGENAMEHERE
but replace PACKAGENAMEHERE with a package name from the table below.- example:
sudo apt-get install xbmc-audioencoder-flac
- example:
The audio encoder add-on should now be installed.
