8 abcde (2.2.0-1) unstable; urgency=low
10 * New release! Let's see if abcde 2.2 gets into Sarge.
12 - Bumped to 3.6.1.1. No changes needed.
13 * Added support for MPP/MP+(Musepack) encoding. Although I am trying to
14 get 2.2 for Debian Sarge release, mpc seems safe enough to introduce. See
15 corecodec.org for code.
16 * Some POSIX shell corrections (making the code more portable). Thanks to
17 Guillem Jover for pointing the problem out.
18 * CDYEAR is also passed to do_move(), so one can use it for sorting the
20 * Small MacOS X fix, allowing directories with "()" to work. Thanks to Evan
22 - On the MacOS X, I still do not know if abcde works correctly. If does
23 not, please, drop a note. Or else.
24 * DOSPLAYLIST also changes "/" with "\".
25 * DATA tracks are now excluded from the ripping process using internally
26 the cdparanoia "-Q" query option. If using another ripper, it does not
27 work (at least there is no support for them in abcde)
28 (Closes: #112692, #117412).
29 * New "0" choice for "None of the above" has been introduced. If selected, a
30 template is created and the user encouraged to edit it (Closes: #147683).
31 * New options for when the PLAYLIST already exists: erase, append or keep.
32 * Bug fixes along the code:
33 - abcde.1 corrections and additions
34 - abcde corrections and code reorganization. abcde now exits earlier if
35 some of the options are incompatible. Also the actions are set as
36 variables earlier, so we use less calls to external tools.
37 - abcde.conf additions
38 * The GENRE is munged now in its own mungegenre function, so that no more
39 upper-to-lowercase is done (forced) except if the default is used.
40 * Examples added to the tarball and /usr/share/doc/abcde/examples with two
41 scripts to make abcde kind-of-a ripper daemon.
42 * Add CDDB information to Ogg/Vorbis and FLAC files (Closes: #265358).
43 * Added INTERACTIVE option. Set it to "n" and there you go, without user
45 * Changes normalize to normalize-audio (Closes: #267053)
46 * Copes with wav files being erased by the ripping tool.
47 * Small patch to support ()'s in the path under MacOSX. Thanks to Evan Jones
48 for noticing and sending the patch.
49 * Added "-w <COMMENT>". Used to give a comment to a given CD.
50 * Added "-W <number>". Used to combine "-T #01 -w CD #".
51 * Added "-t <number>" to modify the numbering from a starting point
52 (Closes: #95828). Geez! That is low bug number...
53 * Added "-T <number>" to modify also the tag entries on the songs. Currently
54 available for FLAC and Ogg/Vorbis.
55 * Removes trailing spaces (Closes: #280382).
56 * TRACKNAME now combines multi-lines from long CDDB entries.

108 spinning at high speed.
109 * Added a pre-read function for preparations. Uses include closing the CD
110 tray (Closes: #137548).
111 * Added COMMENT part in OggFlac metadata.
112 * Documentation update: README, abcde.1
113 * Do not tag GENRE and DATE in Ogg/Vorbis if CDDB does not provide them
115 * Solved bug with batch encoding, thanks to Travis McKay.
116 * When *DATAPREFIX was set, the playlist creation was made without newline.
117 * Added >&2 redirection to visualize the "Erase playlist" question
119 * Added the option "-m" to modify the resulting playlist, to contain CRLF at
120 the end of every line, letting some hardware players which insist with
121 DOS-style files to use them. Also, added DOSPLAYLIST as a config option.
122 * When using a selected, localy cached CDDB entry, we forgot to show the
123 selection when asking the user for editing the choice. Now we show it.
124 * Improved the logic in the order of events when using a local CDDB repo.

137 cleaner, works faster and some not needed network operations are no
138 longer performed when we are working with local CDDB repositories.
139 * Added "-V" for extra verbosity (on slow networks the user might be waiting
140 and wondering is somethins is happening).

155 * We now show the selected CDDB entry on a second run, instead of all of
156 them (not that one should stop abcde, but just in case). This way
157 consecutive interrupted runs obtain the same results.

163 * Check if normalizer is found in the PATH (Closes: #228014)
164 * Added (commented) bits to check if the CD being processed is the CD on the
165 tray, so that if differs we do not eject it.
166 * Store locally the CDDB information, under $HOME/.cddb since it is being
167 used by Grip (at least). PATH is user defined (Closes: #88048)
168 * If you are using cdda2wav and SCSI drives, you can set CDROMID for the
169 SCSI drive, since it differs from the cd-discid CDROM parameter
171 * MacOSX keeps on failing because the OS mounts the CD before we finish
172 ripping it... or something else. Please, test test test the code, and

180 * Urgent fixes for the FreeBSD and MacOSX bits. When using cdda2wav, the

182 we will not try to be very smart.
183 * Added a test for HTTPGETOPTS since it cannot be empty for the default
185 * Quick release to fix a problem with the CDROM detection code.
187 * Cleaned a bashism. Thanks to Klaus Ethgen (Closes: #226782).
188 * Rewrote some parts of the cdda2wav code. Since I do not have a machine
189 where cdda2wav works, I cannot test the code. The modifications have been
190 done following user reports. If you use cdda2wav and abcde does not work

197 * INLINETAG and STARTTRACKNUMBER flags added.
198 * CDROM checking is now done with a bit more wiselly (Closes: #219768)
199 * HTTPGET is only requested is "cddb" action is performed.
200 * Workout the possibility of cdparanoia erasing our wav files
202 * The default answer for editing CDDB data is now "y" if the disk is
203 unknown. If not, the default is "n". Requested by Ricky Buchanan.
204 * Now we do not erase silently any previous $PLAYLISTFILE left behind by a
205 previous CD ripping (Closes: #220753)
206 * Write info file with cdda2wav (Closes: #187702).

208 cdda2wav has a problem with this, please, report.

213 * Merged bits to avoid FreeDB people anger and to cut down the "abcde." part
214 of the discid. Now you can set the "-C" command with the directory name.
215 Kudos go to Bart Samwel.
216 * Added some info bits to the config file about normalize, requested by

349 * Documentation updates: Closes: #186230.
350 * Usual set of bug fixes and corrections.
351 * Default behaviour of VAOUTPUTFORMAT output changed to avoid multiple
352 directories for a same album. I think the format is more logical, and you
353 can always split the files once they are created.
354 * Padding track wavs with 0 so if you want to burn those wavs just cdrecord
355 *.wav will do it. Use "-p" to force it when encoding a small (<9) number
356 of files (Closes: #111627).
357 * Added "KEEPWAVS" as a variable to keep those wavs. Default is "no". Can
358 use also "-k" in the command line. (Closes: #160372).
359 This probably should be changed with an option to move the wav files to
360 another directory instead of just keep de abcde.<cdid> directory.

787 * New name. cdgrab was already taken - the original cdgrab name
788 belongs to a CDDA reading program for DOS dating back to 1993.
789 It's still in use and active development, so I'm changing the
790 name of cdgrab instead. See this URL for a description of the
791 original cdgrab: http://www.scn.rain.com/pub/cdrom/cdgrab.txt
793 Your old /etc/cdgrab.conf and/or ~/.cdgrab.conf can simply be
794 renamed to /etc/abcde.conf and ~/.abcde.conf.
