101 [ Jesus Climent ]
102 * The "It took me a long time to get this release out" release.
103 * abcde.1: remove -M in favour of "-a cue" (Closes: #382614, #396505).
104 * Added a check for a DOCUE already set in the command line
105 (Closes: #385663).
106 * Added -q <Q> as a quality option.
107 * PREGAP was not set in some situations (Closes: #390170).
108 * Added -nv to wget for "no verbose" output, to avoid wget complaining it
109 cannot be quiet and verbose at the same time if "verbose = on" is set in
110 ~/.wgetrc (Closes: #388715).
111 * Added XS-Vcs-Svn: field to control file.
112 * Added some hints if we are using Debian for what packages need to be
113 installed if their binaries are not found.
114 * Spelling mistakes corrected (thanks to Ville Skytta).
115 * Unset GREP_OPTIONS to avoid things like printing number in the beginning of
116 the line (Closes: #383771).
117 * Default answer to erase a playlist was not working (thanks to Charles
118 Steinkuehler) (Closes: #395108).
119 * Corrected man page wrapping. Thanks to Edward J. Shornock
120 (Closes: #399289).
121 * Adds DISCNUMBER to Ogg/Vorbis and FLAC when using -W.
122 * Minor typos (Closes: #458995).
123 * Added AtomicParley for AAC encoding. Thanks to Bill Adams.
124 * Added by Marc Staveley:
125 - post_encode hook.
126 - track comments if null and present in CDDB.
127 * Corrected copyright information (Closes: #516535).
128

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

195 * Added missing space on a [] test statement.
196 * Added "default" action, so that one can add things on top of what we do
197 regularly, without having to list everything: "-a default,playlist" works.
198 * Restored all the > /dev/null instead of using grep -q, since it is not
199 portable.
200 * Added Solaris OS entry, in case we need to define things for it.

207 * Check the CDROMREADER options we have in Debian which we depend on. Thanks
208 to Jose Carlos Garcia Sogo for finding the error.
209 * New recursive option for local CDDB repositories, to cope with other
210 players saving the entries.
211 * Brand new CD backup procedure: rip a CD into a single FLAC trac with an
212 embedded cuesheet using "-1 -M -o flac" and proceed to rip your tracks
213 from the obtained file using "-d file.flac -o <format>". It needs
214 cue2discid script from the examples directory to work. OH! If you manage
215 to get it working with bash, we can get rid of the python dependency...
216 * Initial steps to make abcde working with musicbrainz, although it is not
217 ready yet.
218 * Added a missing $ in a variable (Closes: #345629).
219 * Added -p to the mkdir's for $ABCDETEMPDIR (Closes: #345630).
220 * Added iconv + converted to utf-8 the charset of a ready-to-send CDDB
221 entry (Closes: #345708).
222 * Added AAC (Mpeg4) support.
223 * Small cd-discid update.

242 abcde 2.3.99.1
243
244 * Both -z and -C unset EJECTCD to avoid ejecting the CD when a) we are
245 debuging and b) we are not using the CD.
246 * If we are not reading the CD, set "loud" to see all the output messages
247 (that is, in most of the cases, the first encoding).
248 * Added -f to force some events that otherwise would erase files from our
249 current run. In the standard configuration ("OUTPUT=vorbis") the following
250 actions will need a "-f" to force the last one:
251 abcde -a read,encode -o ogg,flac
252 abcde -a tag,move,clean
253 During the second run abcde should complain that it is trying to erase the
254 working directory while the it has not performed any action on the FLAC
255 files, which we encoded previously.
256 * Convert the old cdparanoia-audio-tracks file into a status entry to avoid
257 eating files from previous rounds using an early version (Closes: #341050)

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

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

382 * Options passed to the encoder by using <-o ogg:"-b 192"> are now
383 supported. One can modify the way abcde encodes just for the current CD.
384 * Unfortunatelly I forgot to add the starting number for tags in Ogg. For
385 MP3 is a bit more difficult, since it needs changing the X/YY code.
386 * Also, the order of the tags in metaflac is important for the utf8 names.

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

535 * Correction by "huf" <mihi at mail.eol.hu>. The test code in line 376

537 * The PADDING code and some CDDB funcions were *really* messy. Now it looks
538 cleaner, works faster and some not needed network operations are no

568 used by Grip (at least). PATH is user defined (Closes: #88048)
569 * If you are using cdda2wav and SCSI drives, you can set CDROMID for the

726 directories for a same album. I think the format is more logical, and you
727 can always split the files once they are created.
728 * Padding track wavs with 0 so if you want to burn those wavs just cdrecord
729 *.wav will do it. Use "-p" to force it when encoding a small (<9) number
730 of files (Closes: #111627).

732 use also "-k" in the command line. (Closes: #160372).

1133
1134 abcde 0.8.4
1135
1136 * New name. A Better CD Encoder. cdgrab was already taken - the original
1137 cdgrab name belongs to a CDDA reading program for DOS dating back to
1138 1993. It's still in use and active development, so I'm changing the
1139 name of cdgrab instead. See this URL for a description of the original
1140 cdgrab: http://www.scn.rain.com/pub/cdrom/cdgrab.txt
1141
1142 Your old /etc/cdgrab.conf and/or ~/.cdgrab.conf can simply be
1143 renamed to /etc/abcde.conf and ~/.abcde.conf.
1144
1145 The program name is now 'abcde'.

1170
1171 cdgrab 0.8
1172
1173 * Fixed a bug where if multiple tracks (but not the entire CD) was
1174 specificed explicitly, cdgrab would loop forever after the first track
1175 * Now uses Debian's sensible-editor wrapper if available
1176 * Merged in patches from Nathaniel J Smith that puts cddb lookup
1177 functionality in a separate script, cddb-tool
1178 * Adds WAVOUTPUTDIR environment variable for those running out of space in
1179 OUTPUTDIR.

1183 cdgrab 0.7.7
1184

1186 handle multiple inexact matches as well. (Thanks again to Robert Macaulay)

1196
1197 cdgrab 0.7.5
1198
1199 * Quick bugfix release - with any luck I can start on 0.8 soon :)
1200 * **** YOU WILL NEED TO EDIT CDGRAB.CONF **** if you use lame as
1201 /usr/bin/lamer. The default program name is now 'lame' as of lame v3.0.
1202 If you don't want to touch your lame installation, put the following in
1203 your cdgrab.conf: "LAME=lamer"
1204 * Omits -w from cdparanoia commands
1205 * Depends on cdparanoia-bin or cdparanoia now - this accomodates the recent
1206 cdparanoia package namechange.
1207 * Fixed a stealth-whitespace typo at line 495. Thanks go to Gregory T.
1208 Norris for tracking this down.

1211
1212 cdgrab 0.7.4
1213
1214 * Now only uses the first match from a CDDB datafile for the track
1215 information, this works around a cddb glitch some of you may have
1216 hit last month
1217 * Default config file now gets version number from program.
1218 * added 'debug' option to CDROMREADERSYNTAX to get cdparanoia to only rip
1219 the first 5 seconds of a track. This is very useful to those debugging
1220 cdgrab, makes things go much faster. This will also prevent me releasing
1221 another 0.7.2 :)
1222 * Now puts options last on the encoder command line if you are using
1223 bladeenc or l3enc, this should allow the proper use of these encoders
1224 with additional commandline options (thanks to Justin Hugh Daly for
1225 pointing this out)
1226 * m3u PLAYLIST SUPPORT! Check out the new -p and -P options!

1251 * CDDB handling revisited - cdgrab should now properly handle CD's with
1252 multiple or inexact CDDB entries.

1255
1256 cdgrab 0.7
1257
1258 * Parallelizes ripping and encoding - this may take substantially more disk
1259 space temporarily (up to 500MB or so depending on how fast your CPU is
1260 compared to your cdrom drive) but cdgrab will be done with your CD
1261 much more quickly.
1262 * Allows for SMP optimizations (multiple encoders running at once) with the
1263 new -j option
1264 * Output fix for TOC printing
1265 * cd-discid split off into it's own package

1305 * Bombs out if there's no CD in the drive

1307 * Encourages people to use brackets for OUTPUTFORMAT variables to
1308 handle formats like Artist/TrackName_Number.mp3
