85 [ Jesus Climent ]
86 * The "It took me a long time to get this release out" release.
87 * abcde.1: remove -M in favour of "-a cue" (Closes: #382614, #396505).
88 * Added a check for a DOCUE already set in the command line
89 (Closes: #385663).
90 * Added -q <Q> as a quality option.
91 * PREGAP was not set in some situations (Closes: #390170).
92 * Added -nv to wget for "no verbose" output, to avoid wget complaining it
93 cannot be quiet and verbose at the same time if "verbose = on" is set in
94 ~/.wgetrc (Closes: #388715).
95 * Added XS-Vcs-Svn: field to control file.
96 * Added some hints if we are using Debian for what packages need to be
97 installed if their binaries are not found.
98 * Spelling mistakes corrected (thanks to Ville Skytta).
99 * Unset GREP_OPTIONS to avoid things like printing number in the beginning of
100 the line (Closes: #383771).
101 * Default answer to erase a playlist was not working (thanks to Charles
102 Steinkuehler) (Closes: #395108).
103 * Corrected man page wrapping. Thanks to Edward J. Shornock
104 (Closes: #399289).
105 * Adds DISCNUMBER to Ogg/Vorbis and FLAC when using -W.
106 * Minor typos (Closes: #458995).
107 * Added AtomicParley for AAC encoding. Thanks to Bill Adams.
108 * Added by Marc Staveley:
109 - post_encode hook.
110 - track comments if null and present in CDDB.
111 * Corrected copyright information (Closes: #516535).
112
113 [ Colin Tuckley ]

125 abcde 2.3.99.6
126
127 * Default to UNICODE (UTF8) tags and comments (Closes: #282332).
128 - Added CDDBPROTO option in config file (Closes: #349951)
129 * Added a missing "INDEX 01" entry for CUE sheet creation.
130 * Avoid completing the encoding of files if we aborted previously.
131 * Embed the CUE sheet if we have a cuesheet file and we have a single FLAC
132 file, even if we are not tagging. This way we can use the file as a source
133 even if it is not tagged/named properly.
134 * Fails to quote filenames properly (Closes: #355296)
135 * Introduced VA/ONETRACKOUTPUTFORMAT.
136 * Added a missing check for AACENCODER.
137 * Updated config file with some new AAC bits.
138 * Updated FSF address.
139 * Corrected NetBSD options for ftp (Thanks to Marius).
140 * The final 2.4 will have "cuefile" as an action instead of as a flag.
141 * Create the cuefile when extracting from a FLAC file.
142 * Small bugs (Charles Steinkuehler):
143 - Added missing quotes (Closes: #375710)
144 - toolame is included in Debian as default MP3 encoder
145 - Use IFS to preserve spaces when adding metadata to a cuefile
146 * Small documentation changes:
147 - abcde.1 (Closes: #364978)
148 * The following entries have in common that both add an internal cue2discid
149 function. I will evaluate which one is more accurate and decide which one
150 to use. Right now they are not conflicting:
151 - Added internal mkcue and cue2discid functions (Charles Steinkuehler) and
152 add a check for internal abcde.<function> to make sure we are using the
153 correct version (not sure if needed ;)
154 - Added an internal implementation of cue2discid, so there is no need for
155 an external program to do the conversion. Thanks to Michael (sorry, his
156 mail does not have a surname).
157 * cue2discid is now an internal function, so no need for including the
158 python script in the path (Closes: #378407)
159 * cddb-tool.1 typo (Thanks to A. Costa) (Closes: #351775)
160 * abcde.1 typo (Thanks to David L. Anselmi) (Closes: #364978)
161 * Set proper nice values to not separate encoding and reading in the pipes
162 situation, while having a high priority process running in the system.
163 Also, set proper nice values to tagging tasks. Reading should remain as
164 the default higher priority task in the abcde flow (Closes: #359156)
165 * Standards bumped to 3.7.2.1, no changes needed.

177
178 * Repaired multiple output encoding (Closes: #351362).
179 * Added missing space on a [] test statement.
180 * Added "default" action, so that one can add things on top of what we do
181 regularly, without having to list everything: "-a default,playlist" works.
182 * Restored all the > /dev/null instead of using grep -q, since it is not
183 portable.
184 * Added Solaris OS entry, in case we need to define things for it.

189
190 * The "Mao es nuestro indiscutible lider" release.
191 * Check the CDROMREADER options we have in Debian which we depend on. Thanks
192 to Jose Carlos Garcia Sogo for finding the error.
193 * New recursive option for local CDDB repositories, to cope with other
194 players saving the entries.
195 * Brand new CD backup procedure: rip a CD into a single FLAC trac with an
196 embedded cuesheet using "-1 -M -o flac" and proceed to rip your tracks
197 from the obtained file using "-d file.flac -o <format>". It needs
198 cue2discid script from the examples directory to work. OH! If you manage
199 to get it working with bash, we can get rid of the python dependency...
200 * Initial steps to make abcde working with musicbrainz, although it is not
201 ready yet.
202 * Added a missing $ in a variable (Closes: #345629).
203 * Added -p to the mkdir's for $ABCDETEMPDIR (Closes: #345630).
204 * Added iconv + converted to utf-8 the charset of a ready-to-send CDDB
205 entry (Closes: #345708).
206 * Added AAC (Mpeg4) support.
207 * Small cd-discid update.

212
213 * Missing bits in the 2.3.99.1 changelog:
214 - Man page: added information about -z (Debug option).
215 - Corrected config file with the BATCHNORM/NOGAP split
216 (Closes: #337622).
217 - Uses /bin/bash for the time being... We need to get some substitution
218 functions/operations for the bashisms we have: Closes: #337139.
219 * Config bits with corrected typos
220 * Adding musicbrainz support. First bits.
221 * Reworked comparison for numerical answer when selecting a CDDB output.
222 * TODO updated

226 abcde 2.3.99.1
227
228 * Both -z and -C unset EJECTCD to avoid ejecting the CD when a) we are
229 debuging and b) we are not using the CD.
230 * If we are not reading the CD, set "loud" to see all the output messages
231 (that is, in most of the cases, the first encoding).
232 * Added -f to force some events that otherwise would erase files from our
233 current run. In the standard configuration ("OUTPUT=vorbis") the following
234 actions will need a "-f" to force the last one:
235 abcde -a read,encode -o ogg,flac
236 abcde -a tag,move,clean
237 During the second run abcde should complain that it is trying to erase the
238 working directory while the it has not performed any action on the FLAC
239 files, which we encoded previously.
240 * Convert the old cdparanoia-audio-tracks file into a status entry to avoid
241 eating files from previous rounds using an early version (Closes: #341050)

244
245 abcde 2.3.99
246
247 * Added diff choice to CDDB entries ("1,4").
248 * Added SHOWCDDBFIELDS to allow the user to show YEAR and GENRE in the
249 parsed CDDB output.
250 * Suggests mkcue, and erase old cdgrab info since sarge is out.
251 * Changed cdparanoia-audio-tracks to use the status file to save the data.
252 * Added the possibility of using a singletrack flac file with an embeded
253 cuesheet as a source of tracks.
254 * Added -z for easy and quick debug.
255 * BATCH has been split into two options: BATCHNORM which allows, by using
256 -b, to use the -a normalize in all the files at once, and NOGAP, that by
257 using -g, introduces the lame's --nogap extension.
258 * Added replygain using the appropiate tags with Ogg/Vorbis and Ogg/FLAC.
259 * Replaygain is an action, not a flag, since it can be performed individualy
260 in the chain of events.
261 * debian/{rules,control}:
262 - Changed the target directory from tmp to abcde, to accomodate to compat
263 mode 4.
264 - Bump standards to 3.6.2.1. No changes needed.
265 * Added "decho" as a DEBUG output for some specific debug variables.
266 * Added USEPIPES file, with information about how to add Unix pipes support.
267 * Added one more checking for PIPES*_* unset variables (which means support
268 is not added to abcde).
269 * Added toolame as an optional MP3 encoder.

275 * Some patches from Tom Spindler <dogcow () babymeat ! com>
276 - Added some quoting to the md5sum checkings, since the variables could be
277 null.
278 - NetBSD bits to use ftp instead on anything else to fetch stuff.
279 * do_playlist needs to convert the OUTPUT to the CONTAINERS to avoid ending
280 with playlists pointing to .vorbis files (Closes: #326487).

310
311 * New upstream release!
312 * Defining the tracknumber now resets the first track if given a number
313 different than 1 (that is: abcde -T 1 2-10 creates songs 1 to 9).
314 * Modified the FAQ to reflect the changes on Marillat's repo
315 (Closes: #315724).
316 * Should be "space" safe: works properly when the working directory contains
317 a space (Closes: #147493).
318 * Repared the CD query for the discid code. When failing to read a disc,
319 actually report that there might be no disc in the drive.
320 * Right now, walk over the different encoders we Depends: on in Debian and
321 use the one available: if a user has a FLAC encoder, abcde will no install
322 vorbis-tools, so it will fail to run out of the box (Closes: #321216)
323 * Added CUE support. Still experimental...
324 * Added FLAC on Ogg. Still not activated, since we cannot get comments added
325 as a post-process action.
326 * Applied patches from Fedora Core (Credit goes to Nils Philippsen
327 <nphilipp@redhat.com>)
328 * Added a post_read() function to be executed before ejecting the CD.
329 * Typos reported by A Costa corrected (Closes: #311463)
330 * Problem with abcde being run in a directory with files containing only
331 numbers solved (Closes: #313628).
332 * vorbiscomment uses now "-R" (Closes: #303566).
333 * "-t" and "-T" use the first track as a starter for the track list.
334 (Closes: #305749).
335 * Added CDPARANOIACDROMBUS option to define -d in case of using IDE and SCSI
336 in case of using ide-scsi emulation layer (Closes: #290768).
337 * Define metaflac in abcde.conf (Closes: #303555)
338 * Added the default "-f" option to the configuration file, to represent the
339 actual default option.

362
363 * Changed the way we call flac, to adapt to the new times:
364 --import-vc-from= to --import-tags-from.
365 * DOSPLAYLIST was not included in the list of options.
366 * Options passed to the encoder by using <-o ogg:"-b 192"> are now
367 supported. One can modify the way abcde encodes just for the current CD.
368 * Unfortunatelly I forgot to add the starting number for tags in Ogg. For
369 MP3 is a bit more difficult, since it needs changing the X/YY code.
370 * Also, the order of the tags in metaflac is important for the utf8 names.
371 Thanks to Frederik Juul Christiani (Closes: #297482)
372 * Added CDROMID in the .conf file, for reader programs that need it
373 (Closes: #297005)

401 abcde 2.2.0
402
403 * New release! Let's see if abcde 2.2 gets into Sarge.
404 * Added support for MPP/MP+(Musepack) encoding. Although I am trying to
405 get 2.2 for Debian Sarge release, mpc seems safe enough to introduce. See
406 corecodec.org for code.
407 * Some POSIX shell corrections (making the code more portable). Thanks to
408 Guillem Jover for pointing the problem out.
409 * CDYEAR is also passed to do_move(), so one can use it for sorting the
410 directories.
411 * Small MacOS X fix, allowing directories with "()" to work. Thanks to Evan
412 Jones.
413 - On the MacOS X, I still do not know if abcde works correctly. If does
414 not, please, drop a note. Or else.
415 * DOSPLAYLIST also changes "/" with "\".
416 * DATA tracks are now excluded from the ripping process using internally
417 the cdparanoia "-Q" query option. If using another ripper, it does not
418 work (at least there is no support for them in abcde)
419 (Closes: #112692, #117412).
420 * New "0" choice for "None of the above" has been introduced. If selected, a
421 template is created and the user encouraged to edit it (Closes: #147683).
422 * New options for when the PLAYLIST already exists: erase, append or keep.
423 * Bug fixes along the code:
424 - abcde.1 corrections and additions
425 - abcde corrections and code reorganization. abcde now exits earlier if
426 some of the options are incompatible. Also the actions are set as
427 variables earlier, so we use less calls to external tools.
428 - abcde.conf additions
429 * The GENRE is munged now in its own mungegenre function, so that no more
430 upper-to-lowercase is done (forced) except if the default is used.
431 * Examples added to the tarball and /usr/share/doc/abcde/examples with two
432 scripts to make abcde kind-of-a ripper daemon.
433 * Changed to experimental to have an stable 2.1.x version in Sarge.
434 * Add CDDB information to Ogg/Vorbis and FLAC files (Closes: #265358).
435 * Added INTERACTIVE option. Set it to "n" and there you go, without user
436 interaction.
437 * Changes normalize to normalize-audio (Closes: #267053)
438 * Copes with wav files being erased by the ripping tool.
439 * Small patch to support ()'s in the path under MacOSX. Thanks to Evan Jones
440 for noticing and sending the patch.
441 * Added -w for COMMENT seed. Used to give a comment to a given CD.
442 * Option "-t <number>" added to modify the numbering from a starting point
443 (Closes: #95828). Geez! That is low bug number...
444 * Added -T to modify also the tag entries on the songs. Currently available
445 for FLAC and Ogg/Vorbis.
446 * Removes trailing spaces (Closes: #280382).

499 (Closes: #235531).
500 * Solved bug with batch encoding, thanks to Travis McKay.
501 * When *DATAPREFIX was set, the playlist creation was made without newline.
502 * Added >&2 redirection to visualize the "Erase playlist" question
503 (Closes: #241221).
504 * Added the option "-m" to modify the resulting playlist, to contain CRLF at

507 * When using a selected, localy cached CDDB entry, we forgot to show the

519 * Correction by "huf" <mihi at mail.eol.hu>. The test code in line 376
520 needed some quotes.
521 * The PADDING code and some CDDB funcions were *really* messy. Now it looks
522 cleaner, works faster and some not needed network operations are no

551 * Store locally the CDDB information, under $HOME/.cddb since it is being
552 used by Grip (at least). PATH is user defined (Closes: #88048)
553 * If you are using cdda2wav and SCSI drives, you can set CDROMID for the
554 SCSI drive, since it differs from the cd-discid CDROM parameter
555 (Closes: #121987).

709 * Default behaviour of VAOUTPUTFORMAT output changed to avoid multiple
710 directories for a same album. I think the format is more logical, and you
711 can always split the files once they are created.
712 * Padding track wavs with 0 so if you want to burn those wavs just cdrecord
713 *.wav will do it. Use "-p" to force it when encoding a small (<9) number
714 of files (Closes: #111627).
715 * Added "KEEPWAVS" as a variable to keep those wavs. Default is "no". Can
716 use also "-k" in the command line. (Closes: #160372).
717 This probably should be changed with an option to move the wav files to

1120 * New name. A Better CD Encoder. cdgrab was already taken - the original
1121 cdgrab name belongs to a CDDA reading program for DOS dating back to
1122 1993. It's still in use and active development, so I'm changing the
1123 name of cdgrab instead. See this URL for a description of the original
1124 cdgrab: http://www.scn.rain.com/pub/cdrom/cdgrab.txt
1125
1126 Your old /etc/cdgrab.conf and/or ~/.cdgrab.conf can simply be

1160 * Merged in patches from Nathaniel J Smith that puts cddb lookup
1161 functionality in a separate script, cddb-tool

1184 * **** YOU WILL NEED TO EDIT CDGRAB.CONF **** if you use lame as
1185 /usr/bin/lamer. The default program name is now 'lame' as of lame v3.0.
1186 If you don't want to touch your lame installation, put the following in
1187 your cdgrab.conf: "LAME=lamer"
1188 * Omits -w from cdparanoia commands
1189 * Depends on cdparanoia-bin or cdparanoia now - this accomodates the recent
1190 cdparanoia package namechange.

1196 cdgrab 0.7.4

1198 * Now only uses the first match from a CDDB datafile for the track
1199 information, this works around a cddb glitch some of you may have
1200 hit last month
1201 * Default config file now gets version number from program.
1202 * added 'debug' option to CDROMREADERSYNTAX to get cdparanoia to only rip
1203 the first 5 seconds of a track. This is very useful to those debugging
1204 cdgrab, makes things go much faster. This will also prevent me releasing
1205 another 0.7.2 :)
1206 * Now puts options last on the encoder command line if you are using
1207 bladeenc or l3enc, this should allow the proper use of these encoders
1208 with additional commandline options (thanks to Justin Hugh Daly for
1209 pointing this out)

1244 compared to your cdrom drive) but cdgrab will be done with your CD
1245 much more quickly.
