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

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

191
192 * Repaired multiple output encoding (Closes: #351362).
193 * Added missing space on a [] test statement.
194 * Added "default" action, so that one can add things on top of what we do
195 regularly, without having to list everything: "-a default,playlist" works.
196 * Restored all the > /dev/null instead of using grep -q, since it is not
197 portable.
198 * Added Solaris OS entry, in case we need to define things for it.

202 abcde 2.3.99.3
203
204 * The "Mao es nuestro indiscutible lider" release.
205 * Check the CDROMREADER options we have in Debian which we depend on. Thanks
206 to Jose Carlos Garcia Sogo for finding the error.
207 * New recursive option for local CDDB repositories, to cope with other
208 players saving the entries.
209 * Brand new CD backup procedure: rip a CD into a single FLAC trac with an
210 embedded cuesheet using "-1 -M -o flac" and proceed to rip your tracks
211 from the obtained file using "-d file.flac -o <format>". It needs
212 cue2discid script from the examples directory to work. OH! If you manage
213 to get it working with bash, we can get rid of the python dependency...
214 * Initial steps to make abcde working with musicbrainz, although it is not
215 ready yet.
216 * Added a missing $ in a variable (Closes: #345629).
217 * Added -p to the mkdir's for $ABCDETEMPDIR (Closes: #345630).
218 * Added iconv + converted to utf-8 the charset of a ready-to-send CDDB
219 entry (Closes: #345708).
220 * Added AAC (Mpeg4) support.
221 * Small cd-discid update.

225 abcde 2.3.99.2
226
227 * Missing bits in the 2.3.99.1 changelog:
228 - Man page: added information about -z (Debug option).
229 - Corrected config file with the BATCHNORM/NOGAP split
230 (Closes: #337622).
231 - Uses /bin/bash for the time being... We need to get some substitution
232 functions/operations for the bashisms we have: Closes: #337139.
233 * Config bits with corrected typos
234 * Adding musicbrainz support. First bits.
235 * Reworked comparison for numerical answer when selecting a CDDB output.
236 * TODO updated

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

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

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

316 * MKCUE needs to be passed some $CDROM as an option, or otherwise it will

318 * Also, make the CUEREADER a bit more general, since we might be using other
319 CUE extractors.

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

376
377 * Changed the way we call flac, to adapt to the new times:
378 --import-vc-from= to --import-tags-from.
379 * DOSPLAYLIST was not included in the list of options.
380 * Options passed to the encoder by using <-o ogg:"-b 192"> are now
381 supported. One can modify the way abcde encodes just for the current CD.
382 * Unfortunatelly I forgot to add the starting number for tags in Ogg. For
383 MP3 is a bit more difficult, since it needs changing the X/YY code.
384 * Also, the order of the tags in metaflac is important for the utf8 names.
385 Thanks to Frederik Juul Christiani (Closes: #297482)
386 * Added CDROMID in the .conf file, for reader programs that need it
387 (Closes: #297005)
388 * Added a check for cdparanoia when encountering data-only CDs.

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

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

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

725 can always split the files once they are created.
726 * Padding track wavs with 0 so if you want to burn those wavs just cdrecord
727 *.wav will do it. Use "-p" to force it when encoding a small (<9) number
728 of files (Closes: #111627).

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

1131
1132 abcde 0.8.4
1133
1134 * New name. A Better CD Encoder. cdgrab was already taken - the original
1135 cdgrab name belongs to a CDDA reading program for DOS dating back to
1136 1993. It's still in use and active development, so I'm changing the
1137 name of cdgrab instead. See this URL for a description of the original
1138 cdgrab: http://www.scn.rain.com/pub/cdrom/cdgrab.txt
1139
1140 Your old /etc/cdgrab.conf and/or ~/.cdgrab.conf can simply be
1141 renamed to /etc/abcde.conf and ~/.abcde.conf.
1142
1143 The program name is now 'abcde'.

1168
1169 cdgrab 0.8
1170
1171 * Fixed a bug where if multiple tracks (but not the entire CD) was
1172 specificed explicitly, cdgrab would loop forever after the first track
1173 * Now uses Debian's sensible-editor wrapper if available
1174 * Merged in patches from Nathaniel J Smith that puts cddb lookup
1175 functionality in a separate script, cddb-tool
1176 * Adds WAVOUTPUTDIR environment variable for those running out of space in
1177 OUTPUTDIR.

1181 cdgrab 0.7.7
1182
1183 * Yet another quick fix to finish what 0.7.6 started - cdgrab should now
1184 handle multiple inexact matches as well. (Thanks again to Robert Macaulay)
1185
1186 -- Robert Woodcock <rcw@debian.org> Thu, 12 Aug 1999
1187

1194
1195 cdgrab 0.7.5
1196
1197 * Quick bugfix release - with any luck I can start on 0.8 soon :)
1198 * **** YOU WILL NEED TO EDIT CDGRAB.CONF **** if you use lame as
1199 /usr/bin/lamer. The default program name is now 'lame' as of lame v3.0.
1200 If you don't want to touch your lame installation, put the following in
1201 your cdgrab.conf: "LAME=lamer"
1202 * Omits -w from cdparanoia commands
1203 * Depends on cdparanoia-bin or cdparanoia now - this accomodates the recent
1204 cdparanoia package namechange.
1205 * Fixed a stealth-whitespace typo at line 495. Thanks go to Gregory T.
1206 Norris for tracking this down.

1209
1210 cdgrab 0.7.4
1211
1212 * Now only uses the first match from a CDDB datafile for the track
1213 information, this works around a cddb glitch some of you may have
1214 hit last month
1215 * Default config file now gets version number from program.
1216 * added 'debug' option to CDROMREADERSYNTAX to get cdparanoia to only rip
1217 the first 5 seconds of a track. This is very useful to those debugging
1218 cdgrab, makes things go much faster. This will also prevent me releasing
1219 another 0.7.2 :)
1220 * Now puts options last on the encoder command line if you are using
1221 bladeenc or l3enc, this should allow the proper use of these encoders
1222 with additional commandline options (thanks to Justin Hugh Daly for
1223 pointing this out)
1224 * m3u PLAYLIST SUPPORT! Check out the new -p and -P options!

1247 parallelized session.
1248 * MAXPROCS added to config file
1249 * CDDB handling revisited - cdgrab should now properly handle CD's with
1250 multiple or inexact CDDB entries.

1252 -- Robert Woodcock <rcw@debian.org> Fri, 14 May 1999
1253
1254 cdgrab 0.7
1255
1256 * Parallelizes ripping and encoding - this may take substantially more disk
1257 space temporarily (up to 500MB or so depending on how fast your CPU is
1258 compared to your cdrom drive) but cdgrab will be done with your CD
1259 much more quickly.
1260 * Allows for SMP optimizations (multiple encoders running at once) with the
1261 new -j option
1262 * Output fix for TOC printing
1263 * cd-discid split off into it's own package

1300 * Added ALBUMFILE, fixed manpage reference to it
1301 * Deletes editor backups from 'cdgrab -e' automagically
1302 (I wish mutt did this :)
1303 * Bombs out if there's no CD in the drive
1304 * Bombs out if any necessary external programs don't exist
1305 * Encourages people to use brackets for OUTPUTFORMAT variables to
1306 handle formats like Artist/TrackName_Number.mp3

1314 command line, use 'cdgrab -d device' now to get the same result.
1315 * Allows you to edit CDDB response data before using it (-e)
