TODO:
----
-* Set loud after reading, so that the 1st encoding is visible.
-* flac with force.
-* no eject when we dont read a CD.
+* Get the multiple choices in both local and remote CDDB to use the same
+ functions.
-
-* flacdecode (to extract files from a -1 flac file) (ALMOST READY!)
-
-* Get the echo instances to behave consistently
+* Add musicbrainz support: http://www.rupamsunyata.org/~decklin/musicbrainz-get-tracks
* read the TOC and CDTEXT files and store them
invoked once per wav.
Abcde should halt when a problem occurs, so it can be manually resolved.
-
-* AAC support (faac should be free?)
-
-* I used abcde to rip a cd in batch normalizing mode to mp3 (mp2
- actually) format with toolame. The first part went fine, until toolame
- started. That resulted in an error. Here is the relevant part of the
- logfile made by 'abcde -D 2>logfile':
-
- -----
- + TRACKFILES= track1.wav track2.wav track3.wav track4.wav
- + nice -n 10 toolame --nogap track1.wav track2.wav track3.wav track4.wav
- toolame: unrec option -
- toolame: unrec option n
- toolame: -p model must be 1 or 2, not track1.wav
- + RETURN=1
- + '[' 1 '!=' 0 ']'
- + echo 'batch-encode: returned code 1'

- In my abcde.conf I have "BATCH=y". Setting this to "BATCH=n" solves
- this. "BATCH=y" is responsible for inserting '--nogap'. I don't know
- what that is supposed to be doing, but it is only meant for use with
- lame, and I am using toolame as that is free software: "LAME=toolame"
- in abcde.conf.
-
- I see two possible solutions:
-
- 1. Check if LAME really is lame and not toolame or some other mp3
- encoder. If so, then go ahead and insert '--nogap' in the generated
- command. Else don't.
-
- 2. Don't tie the '--nogap' insertion to the setting of BATCH. Make a
- new option NOGAP or something for that.
-
- Other than that, abcde is a brilliant time saver. Thanks!
-
- BTW, dpkg -l toolame:
- ii toolame 02i-2 MPEG-1 layer 2 audio encoder

-
-abcde -a read,encode -o ogg,flac,wav (it creates and encodes the 3 formats)
-
-abcde -a tag,move,clean (it tags and moves Ogg/Vorbis and erases everything
- else...)
-
-I will have to add a "-f" as force to erase the directory if we have encoded
-something else than what we have already moved, so that we dont destroy
-formats that we want to keep.
