1 abcde (2.3.99.2-1) unstable; urgency=low
3 * Missing bits in the 2.3.99.1 changelog:
4 - Man page: added information about -z (Debug option).
5 - Corrected config file with the BATCHNORM/NOGAP split
7 - Uses /bin/bash for the time being... We need to get some substitution
8 functions/operations for the bashisms we have: Closes: #337139.
9 * Config bits with corrected typos
10 * Adding musicbrainz support. First bits.
11 * Reworked comparison for numerical answer when selecting a CDDB output.

16 abcde (2.3.99.1-1) unstable; urgency=low
18 * Both -z and -C unset EJECTCD to avoid ejecting the CD when a) we are
19 debuging and b) we are not using the CD.
20 * If we are not reading the CD, set "loud" to see all the output messages
21 (that is, in most of the cases, the first encoding).
22 * Added -f to force some events that otherwise would erase files from our
23 current run. In the standard configuration ("OUTPUT=vorbis") the following
24 actions will need a "-f" to force the last one:
25 abcde -a read,encode -o ogg,flac
26 abcde -a tag,move,clean
27 During the second run abcde should complain that it is trying to erase the
28 working directory while the it has not performed any action on the FLAC
29 files, which we encoded previously.
30 * Convert the old cdparanoia-audio-tracks file into a status entry to avoid
31 eating files from previous rounds using an early version (Closes: #341050)

35 abcde (2.3.99-1) unstable; urgency=low
37 * Added diff choice to CDDB entries ("1,4").
38 * Added SHOWCDDBFIELDS to allow the user to show YEAR and GENRE in the
40 * Suggests mkcue, and erase old cdgrab info since sarge is out.
41 * Changed cdparanoia-audio-tracks to use the status file to save the data.
42 * Added the possibility of using a singletrack flac file with an embeded
43 cuesheet as a source of tracks.
44 * Added -z for easy and quick debug.
45 * BATCH has been splitted into two options: BATCHNORM which allows, by using
46 -b, to use the -a normalize in all the files at once, and NOGAP, that by
47 using -g, introduces the lame's --nogap extension.
48 * Added replygain using the appropiate tags with Ogg/Vorbis and Ogg/FLAC.
49 * Replaygain is an action, not a flag, since it can be performed individualy
50 in the chain of events.
51 * debian/{rules,control}:
52 - Changed the target directory from tmp to abcde, to accomodate to compat
54 - Bump standards to 3.6.2.1. No changes needed.
55 * Added "decho" as a DEBUG output for some specific debug variables.
56 * Added USEPIPES file, with information about how to add Unix pipes support.
57 * Added one more checking for PIPES*_* unset variables (which means support
58 is not added to abcde).
59 * Added toolame as an optional MP3 encoder.
60 * Added a "-u" flag to set the FreeDB/whatever-cddb-server-you-use to use
61 th 6th step of the protocol and request the entries in UTF-8, which
62 hopefully will add the expected UTF-8 tags and comments.

102 abcde (2.3.0-1) unstable; urgency=low
104 * New upstream release!
105 * Defining the tracknumber now resets the first track if given a number
106 different than 1 (that is: abcde -T 1 2-10 creates songs 1 to 9).
107 * Modified the FAQ to reflect the changes on Marillat's repo
109 * Should be "space" safe: works properly when the working directory contains
110 a space (Closes: #147493).
111 * Repared the CD query for the discid code. When failing to read a disc,
112 actually report that there might be no disc in the drive.
113 * Right now, walk over the different encoders we Depends: on in Debian and
114 use the one available: if a user has a FLAC encoder, abcde will no install
115 vorbis-tools, so it will fail to run out of the box (Closes: #321216)
116 * Added CUE support. Still experimental...
117 * Added FLAC on Ogg. Still not activated, since we cannot get comments added
118 as a post-process action.
119 * Applied patches from Fedora Core (Credit goes to Nils Philippsen
120 <nphilipp@redhat.com>)
121 * Added a post_read() function to be executed before ejecting the CD.
122 * Typos reported by A Costa corrected (Closes: #311463)
123 * Problem with abcde being run in a directory with files containing only
124 numbers solved (Closes: #313628).
125 * vorbiscomment uses now "-R" (Closes: #303566).
126 * "-t" and "-T" use the first track as a starter for the track list.
128 * Added CDPARANOIACDROMBUS option to define -d in case of using IDE and SCSI
129 in case of using ide-scsi emulation layer (Closes: #290768).
130 * Define metaflac in abcde.conf (Closes: #303555)
131 * Added the default "-f" option to the configuration file, to represent the
132 actual default option.

154 abcde (2.2.4-1) unstable; urgency=low
156 * Changed the way we call flac, to adapt to the new times:
157 --import-vc-from= to --import-tags-from.
158 * DOSPLAYLIST was not included in the list of options.
159 * Options passed to the encoder by using <-o ogg:"-b 192"> are now
160 supported. One can modify the way abcde encodes just for the current CD.
161 * Unfortunatelly I forgot to add the starting number for tags in Ogg. For
162 MP3 is a bit more difficult, since it needs changing the X/YY code.
163 * Also, the order of the tags in metaflac is important for the utf8 names.
164 Thanks to Frederik Juul Christiani (Closes: #297482)
165 * Added CDROMID in the .conf file, for reader programs that need it
167 * Added a check for cdparanoia when encountering data-only CDs.

194 abcde (2.2.0-1) unstable; urgency=low
196 * New release! Let's see if abcde 2.2 gets into Sarge.
198 - Bumped to 3.6.1.1. No changes needed.
199 * Added support for MPP/MP+(Musepack) encoding. Although I am trying to
200 get 2.2 for Debian Sarge release, mpc seems safe enough to introduce. See
201 corecodec.org for code.
202 * Some POSIX shell corrections (making the code more portable). Thanks to
203 Guillem Jover for pointing the problem out.
204 * CDYEAR is also passed to do_move(), so one can use it for sorting the
206 * Small MacOS X fix, allowing directories with "()" to work. Thanks to Evan
208 - On the MacOS X, I still do not know if abcde works correctly. If does
209 not, please, drop a note. Or else.
210 * DOSPLAYLIST also changes "/" with "\".
211 * DATA tracks are now excluded from the ripping process using internally
212 the cdparanoia "-Q" query option. If using another ripper, it does not
213 work (at least there is no support for them in abcde)
214 (Closes: #112692, #117412).
215 * New "0" choice for "None of the above" has been introduced. If selected, a
216 template is created and the user encouraged to edit it (Closes: #147683).
217 * New options for when the PLAYLIST already exists: erase, append or keep.
218 * Bug fixes along the code:
219 - abcde.1 corrections and additions
220 - abcde corrections and code reorganization. abcde now exits earlier if
221 some of the options are incompatible. Also the actions are set as
222 variables earlier, so we use less calls to external tools.
223 - abcde.conf additions
224 * The GENRE is munged now in its own mungegenre function, so that no more
225 upper-to-lowercase is done (forced) except if the default is used.
226 * Examples added to the tarball and /usr/share/doc/abcde/examples with two
227 scripts to make abcde kind-of-a ripper daemon.
228 * Add CDDB information to Ogg/Vorbis and FLAC files (Closes: #265358).
229 * Added INTERACTIVE option. Set it to "n" and there you go, without user
231 * Changes normalize to normalize-audio (Closes: #267053)
232 * Copes with wav files being erased by the ripping tool.
233 * Small patch to support ()'s in the path under MacOSX. Thanks to Evan Jones
234 for noticing and sending the patch.
235 * Added "-w <COMMENT>". Used to give a comment to a given CD.
236 * Added "-W <number>". Used to combine "-T #01 -w CD #".
237 * Added "-t <number>" to modify the numbering from a starting point
238 (Closes: #95828). Geez! That is low bug number...
239 * Added "-T <number>" to modify also the tag entries on the songs. Currently
240 available for FLAC and Ogg/Vorbis.
241 * Removes trailing spaces (Closes: #280382).
242 * TRACKNAME now combines multi-lines from long CDDB entries.

475 * Removed all the inline tagging since it breaks the action chain, except
476 in Ogg/Speex. Need to check if "vorbiscomment" can be used for it.
478 * Added DISTMP3NICE variable, to nice the distmp3 program (Closes: #208398)

484 * Small fixes and patches.
485 + GENRE can be used for OUTPUTFORMAT and PLAYLISTFORMAT
486 + id3v2 should work now with -c for comments (Closes: #199949)
487 + small bug with batch encoding
488 + Variables are exported before the CDDB functions are called, so they
489 should use the right variables for the HTTPGET command.
490 + Tagging also use TRACKS and CDGENRE for MP3 files (kudos to Dirk
492 + FLAC encoding now uses dismp3 to encode remotelly (kudos to Taylor and
493 Kevin Cramer). HANDLE WITH CARE ;)
494 Also FLAC now uses CDGENRE and CDYEAR for tagging.
496 + Standards to 3.6.0. No changes needed.
497 + Changed Build-Depends to -Indep, since this is a POSIX shell script.
498 * tail/head change: -1 has been deprecated. Noted by Stephan Kulow.
499 * Ogg/Speex support added, for speech encoding (Closes #204635)
500 * Documentation update (Closes: #198825)

523 * More FreeBSD specific bits: CDROM and EJECT changes.
525 * Added CDDBPROTO for specifying the protocol level of the cddb query.
526 * CDDB protocol upgraded to 5. CDYEAR and CDGENRE are now used for CD
527 tagging. Patches from FreeBSD guys.
528 * COMMENT is now used for inline tagging with oggenc (my mistake it was
529 missing): Closes: #191475.

533 abcde (2.1.2-1) unstable; urgency=low
535 * Documentation updates: Closes: #186230.
536 * Usual set of bug fixes and corrections.
537 * Default behaviour of VAOUTPUTFORMAT output changed to avoid multiple
538 directories for a same album. I think the format is more logical, and you
539 can always split the files once they are created.
540 * Padding track wavs with 0 so if you want to burn those wavs just cdrecord
541 *.wav will do it. Use "-p" to force it when encoding a small (<9) number
542 of files (Closes: #111627).
543 * Added "KEEPWAVS" as a variable to keep those wavs. Default is "no". Can
544 use also "-k" in the command line. (Closes: #160372).
545 This probably should be changed with an option to move the wav files to
546 another directory instead of just keep de abcde.<cdid> directory.
547 * Added documentation comments about OUTPUTTYPE (Closes: #184963).
548 * abcde.conf cleanup: (Closes: #186230, #187400).
