171 * PREGAP was not set in some situations (Closes: #390170).
172 * Corrected debian/changelog.
173 * Added -nv to wget for "no verbose" output, to avoid wget complaining it
174 cannot be quiet and verbose at the same time if "verbose = on" is set in
175 ~/.wgetrc (Closes: #388715).

206 abcde (2.3.99.6-1) unstable; urgency=low
208 * Default to UNICODE (UTF8) tags and comments (Closes: #282332).
209 - Added CDDBPROTO option in config file (Closes: #349951)
210 * Added a missing "INDEX 01" entry for CUE sheet creation.
211 * Avoid completing the encoding of files if we aborted previously.
212 * Embed the CUE sheet if we have a cuesheet file and we have a single FLAC
213 file, even if we are not tagging. This way we can use the file as a source
214 even if it is not tagged/named properly.
215 * Fails to quote filenames properly (Closes: #355296)
216 * Introduced VA/ONETRACKOUTPUTFORMAT.
217 * Added a missing check for AACENCODER.
218 * Updated config file with some new AAC bits.
219 * Updated FSF address.
220 * Corrected NetBSD options for ftp (Thanks to Marius).
221 * The final 2.4 will have "cuefile" as an action instead of as a flag.
222 * Create the cuefile when extracting from a FLAC file.
223 * Small bugs (Charles Steinkuehler):
224 - Added missing quotes (Closes: #375710)
225 - toolame is included in Debian as default MP3 encoder
226 - Use IFS to preserve spaces when adding metadata to a cuefile
227 * Small documentation changes:
228 - abcde.1 (Closes: #364978)
229 * The following entries have in common that both add an internal cue2discid
230 function. I will evaluate which one is more accurate and decide which one
231 to use. Right now they are not conflicting:
232 - Added internal mkcue and cue2discid functions (Charles Steinkuehler) and
233 add a check for internal abcde.<function> to make sure we are using the
234 correct version (not sure if needed ;)
235 - Added an internal implementation of cue2discid, so there is no need for
236 an external program to do the conversion. Thanks to Michael (sorry, his
237 mail does not have a surname).
238 * cue2discid is now an internal function, so no need for including the
239 python script in the path (Closes: #378407)
240 * cddb-tool.1 typo (Thanks to A. Costa) (Closes: #351775)
241 * abcde.1 typo (Thanks to David L. Anselmi) (Closes: #364978)
242 * Set proper nice values to not separate encoding and reading in the pipes
243 situation, while having a high priority process running in the system.
244 Also, set proper nice values to tagging tasks. Reading should remain as
245 the default higher priority task in the abcde flow (Closes: #359156)
246 * Standards bumped to 3.7.2.1, no changes needed.

261 * Added "default" action, so that one can add things on top of what we do
262 regularly, without having to list everything: "-a default,playlist" works.
263 * Restored all the > /dev/null instead of using grep -q, since it is not

273 to Jose Carlos Garcia Sogo for finding the error.
274 * New recursive option for local CDDB repositories, to cope with other
275 players saving the entries.
276 * Brand new CD backup procedure: rip a CD into a single FLAC trac with an
277 embedded cuesheet using "-1 -M -o flac" and proceed to rip your tracks
278 from the obtained file using "-d file.flac -o <format>". It needs
279 cue2discid script from the examples directory to work. OH! If you manage
280 to get it working with bash, we can get rid of the python dependency...
281 * Initial steps to make abcde working with musicbrainz, although it is not
283 * Added a missing $ in a variable (Closes: #345629).
284 * Added -p to the mkdir's for $ABCDETEMPDIR (Closes: #345630).
285 * Added iconv + converted to utf-8 the charset of a ready-to-send CDDB

307 abcde (2.3.99.1-1) unstable; urgency=low
309 * Both -z and -C unset EJECTCD to avoid ejecting the CD when a) we are
310 debuging and b) we are not using the CD.
311 * If we are not reading the CD, set "loud" to see all the output messages
312 (that is, in most of the cases, the first encoding).
313 * Added -f to force some events that otherwise would erase files from our
314 current run. In the standard configuration ("OUTPUT=vorbis") the following
315 actions will need a "-f" to force the last one:
316 abcde -a read,encode -o ogg,flac
317 abcde -a tag,move,clean
318 During the second run abcde should complain that it is trying to erase the
319 working directory while the it has not performed any action on the FLAC
320 files, which we encoded previously.

332 * Changed cdparanoia-audio-tracks to use the status file to save the data.
333 * Added the possibility of using a singletrack flac file with an embeded
334 cuesheet as a source of tracks.
335 * Added -z for easy and quick debug.
336 * BATCH has been split into two options: BATCHNORM which allows, by using
337 -b, to use the -a normalize in all the files at once, and NOGAP, that by
338 using -g, introduces the lame's --nogap extension.
339 * Added replygain using the appropriate tags with Ogg/Vorbis and Ogg/FLAC.
340 * Replaygain is an action, not a flag, since it can be performed individually
341 in the chain of events.
342 * debian/{rules,control}:
343 - Changed the target directory from tmp to abcde, to accommodate to compat
345 - Bump standards to 3.6.2.1. No changes needed.
346 * Added "decho" as a DEBUG output for some specific debug variables.
347 * Added USEPIPES file, with information about how to add Unix pipes support.
348 * Added one more checking for PIPES*_* unset variables (which means support
349 is not added to abcde).
350 * Added toolame as an optional MP3 encoder.
351 * Added a "-u" flag to set the FreeDB/whatever-cddb-server-you-use to use
352 th 6th step of the protocol and request the entries in UTF-8, which
353 hopefully will add the expected UTF-8 tags and comments.

396 * Defining the tracknumber now resets the first track if given a number
397 different than 1 (that is: abcde -T 1 2-10 creates songs 1 to 9).
398 * Modified the FAQ to reflect the changes on Marillat's repo
400 * Should be "space" safe: works properly when the working directory contains
401 a space (Closes: #147493).
402 * Repared the CD query for the discid code. When failing to read a disc,
403 actually report that there might be no disc in the drive.
404 * Right now, walk over the different encoders we Depends: on in Debian and
405 use the one available: if a user has a FLAC encoder, abcde will no install
406 vorbis-tools, so it will fail to run out of the box (Closes: #321216)
407 * Added CUE support. Still experimental...
408 * Added FLAC on Ogg. Still not activated, since we cannot get comments added
409 as a post-process action.
410 * Applied patches from Fedora Core (Credit goes to Nils Philippsen
411 <nphilipp@redhat.com>)
412 * Added a post_read() function to be executed before ejecting the CD.
413 * Typos reported by A Costa corrected (Closes: #311463)

415 numbers solved (Closes: #313628).

417 * "-t" and "-T" use the first track as a starter for the track list.

420 in case of using ide-scsi emulation layer (Closes: #290768).
421 * Define metaflac in abcde.conf (Closes: #303555)

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

485 abcde (2.2.0-1) unstable; urgency=low
487 * New release! Let's see if abcde 2.2 gets into Sarge.
489 - Bumped to 3.6.1.1. No changes needed.
490 * Added support for MPP/MP+(Musepack) encoding. Although I am trying to
491 get 2.2 for Debian Sarge release, mpc seems safe enough to introduce. See
492 corecodec.org for code.
493 * Some POSIX shell corrections (making the code more portable). Thanks to
494 Guillem Jover for pointing the problem out.
495 * CDYEAR is also passed to do_move(), so one can use it for sorting the
497 * Small MacOS X fix, allowing directories with "()" to work. Thanks to Evan
499 - On the MacOS X, I still do not know if abcde works correctly. If does
500 not, please, drop a note. Or else.
501 * DOSPLAYLIST also changes "/" with "\".
502 * DATA tracks are now excluded from the ripping process using internally
503 the cdparanoia "-Q" query option. If using another ripper, it does not
504 work (at least there is no support for them in abcde)
505 (Closes: #112692, #117412).
506 * New "0" choice for "None of the above" has been introduced. If selected, a
507 template is created and the user encouraged to edit it (Closes: #147683).
508 * New options for when the PLAYLIST already exists: erase, append or keep.
509 * Bug fixes along the code:
510 - abcde.1 corrections and additions
511 - abcde corrections and code reorganization. abcde now exits earlier if
512 some of the options are incompatible. Also the actions are set as
513 variables earlier, so we use less calls to external tools.
514 - abcde.conf additions
515 * The GENRE is munged now in its own mungegenre function, so that no more
516 upper-to-lowercase is done (forced) except if the default is used.
517 * Examples added to the tarball and /usr/share/doc/abcde/examples with two
518 scripts to make abcde kind-of-a ripper daemon.
519 * Add CDDB information to Ogg/Vorbis and FLAC files (Closes: #265358).
520 * Added INTERACTIVE option. Set it to "n" and there you go, without user
522 * Changes normalize to normalize-audio (Closes: #267053)
523 * Copes with wav files being erased by the ripping tool.
524 * Small patch to support ()'s in the path under MacOSX. Thanks to Evan Jones
525 for noticing and sending the patch.
526 * Added "-w <COMMENT>". Used to give a comment to a given CD.
527 * Added "-W <number>". Used to combine "-T #01 -w CD #".
528 * Added "-t <number>" to modify the numbering from a starting point
529 (Closes: #95828). Geez! That is low bug number...
530 * Added "-T <number>" to modify also the tag entries on the songs. Currently
531 available for FLAC and Ogg/Vorbis.
532 * Removes trailing spaces (Closes: #280382).
533 * TRACKNAME now combines multi-lines from long CDDB entries.

587 tray (Closes: #137548).
588 * Added COMMENT part in OggFlac metadata.
589 * Documentation update: README, abcde.1
590 * Do not tag GENRE and DATE in Ogg/Vorbis if CDDB does not provide them
592 * Solved bug with batch encoding, thanks to Travis McKay.
593 * When *DATAPREFIX was set, the playlist creation was made without newline.
594 * Added >&2 redirection to visualize the "Erase playlist" question
596 * Added the option "-m" to modify the resulting playlist, to contain CRLF at
597 the end of every line, letting some hardware players which insist with
598 DOS-style files to use them. Also, added DOSPLAYLIST as a config option.
599 * When using a selected, localy cached CDDB entry, we forgot to show the
600 selection when asking the user for editing the choice. Now we show it.
601 * Improved the logic in the order of events when using a local CDDB repo.

615 longer performed when we are working with local CDDB repositories.

634 consecutive interrupted runs obtain the same results.

642 tray, so that if differs we do not eject it.
643 * Store locally the CDDB information, under $HOME/.cddb since it is being
644 used by Grip (at least). PATH is user defined (Closes: #88048)
645 * If you are using cdda2wav and SCSI drives, you can set CDROMID for the
646 SCSI drive, since it differs from the cd-discid CDROM parameter

649 ripping it... or something else. Please, test test test the code, and

666 where cdda2wav works, I cannot test the code. The modifications have been
667 done following user reports. If you use cdda2wav and abcde does not work

677 * Workout the possibility of cdparanoia erasing our wav files
679 * The default answer for editing CDDB data is now "y" if the disk is
680 unknown. If not, the default is "n". Requested by Ricky Buchanan.
681 * Now we do not erase silently any previous $PLAYLISTFILE left behind by a
682 previous CD ripping (Closes: #220753)

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

690 * Merged bits to avoid FreeDB people anger and to cut down the "abcde." part
691 of the discid. Now you can set the "-C" command with the directory name.
692 Kudos go to Bart Samwel.

826 * Documentation updates: Closes: #186230.
827 * Usual set of bug fixes and corrections.
828 * Default behaviour of VAOUTPUTFORMAT output changed to avoid multiple
829 directories for a same album. I think the format is more logical, and you
830 can always split the files once they are created.
831 * Padding track wavs with 0 so if you want to burn those wavs just cdrecord
832 *.wav will do it. Use "-p" to force it when encoding a small (<9) number
833 of files (Closes: #111627).
834 * Added "KEEPWAVS" as a variable to keep those wavs. Default is "no". Can
835 use also "-k" in the command line. (Closes: #160372).
836 This probably should be changed with an option to move the wav files to
