Since I upgraded to 13.10, I cannot export CD tracks in Rhythmbox. It told me "Additional software is required to encode media in your preferred format:
Vorbis encoder" I click install, and it loops back and does not work.
I un-installed Rhythmbox, re-installed it, and it still does not work. Now when I click install, I get "Invalid Commandline. The parameters passed to the application had an invalid format. Please file a bug!
The parameters were:
–transient-for=65011715
gstreamer|1.0|rhythmbox|Vorbis encoder|encoder-audio/x-vorbis"
I also renamed the rhythmbox folders in ~/.cache and ~/.local – this also made new difference.
Is this a bug, or do I have something set up incorrectly here?
If it makes a difference, I am running on a Dell D630.

The message is erroneous & a long standing bug. Vorbis encoding is default enabled & if you just went ahead it would work
To 'fix'
Under Preferences > Music > Format settings choose one of the 3 options, for either constant or varible set a quality.
Then close & re-open RB, the so called error will be gone
after restarting RB the install box will be gone
