Bug#884864: vlc: Convert/Save fails to copy a CD

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!

All the best,
		Nick
