To make things easier, I coded this bash script to convert my archive, and it’s been a lifesaver:

github.com/Ardakilic/flac-to-1

It uses SoX in the background and is essentially a simple iteration wrapper. It checks the bitrate and sample rate, transcodes if necessary, and just copies the file if no conversion is needed.

Finally found a CD ripper for Linux – Whipper – with the goal of creating accurate copies, rather than doing it fast.

It's a command line tool, which may sound daunting, but after running a few commands to calibrate the settings to your CD-ROM, it's as easy as typing "whipper cd rip" to rip to FLAC with metadata from MusicBrainz. Very nice!

Continued thread

and the above should've been on the #taggart thread instead of here, but we've already established that i suck at keeping all my updates to a single thread...

anyway, first issue closed! #lofty worked great, giving me uniform support for *takes a deep breath* #Aac #Aiff #Ape #Flac #Mpeg #Mp4 #Mpc #Opus #Vorbis #Speex #Wav #WavPack 💥

up next: using docs.rs/unicode-width/latest/u to get me some tidy columns - length of some release titles is just delightfully absurd!
