It automates the whole process of ripping +data from music compact discs (CD), the naming of the files, their converting +into MP3 or Ogg-Vorbis format and the labelling of the MP3 files with an ID3 +tag. dekagen uses dialog for a user interface that is intended to be +"intuitive". + +Music data is read from CDs using cdda2wav, cdparanoia, dagrab, or tosha, and +stored on your harddisk in wav-format. Note that this will have an excessive +need of disk space. After this, the wav-data is converted into MP3 format +using 8hz-mp3, bladeenc, l3enc, lame, mp3enc, or notlame, or into Ogg-Vorbis +format using oggenc. This will take a while. To avoid manual naming and +tagging for all the files, cda is used for CDDB lookups. To label the MP3 +files with ID3 tags, id3ed, id3tag, id3tool, or mp3info, or the built-in +capabilities of some encoders (lame, notlame) are used. Ogg-Vorbis files can +be labelled with oggenc. + +WWW: http://userpage.fu-berlin.de/~mbayer/tools/dekagen.html + +- Martin Kraft +martin.kraft@fal.de |
