NAME

       dr_cdrip - rip audio cd’s to ogg

SYNOPSIS

       dr_cdrip [args] < id3-tag-file

DESCIPTION

       dr_cdrip sets up a cdparanoia(1) - oggenc(1) pipe for each track on
       your audio cd, so that the audio on your cd will be stored as .ogg
       files on your harddisk. args will get passed to each songs’ oggenc(1)
       invocation.

       id3-tag-file could look like this:

        Jaffa - Star 67
        Think of one - Den Antwaarpse Shabi
        Klute - Angry Woman
        Electrotwist - The Smurfer

       Evil characters are discarded from the file, we don’t want them to
       appear in filenames. If a line lacks a ’ - ’, the line is assumed to be
       a title.

       Defauls setting of oggenc(1)’s --quality level is 7, override by
       setting the CDRIP_QUALITY environment variable.

       Note: mp3’s id3 tags seem to be called "comments" in the .ogg world.

EXAMPLE

        dj@gelfand ~$ export CDRIP_QUALITY=9
        dj@gelfand /h.../The_New_York_Contemporary_Five$ dr_cdrip \
         -l "The New York Contemporary Five" -a "Archie Shepp" \
         -c "description=Don Cherry: crnt, Archie Shepp: ts, Don \
         Moore: b, JC Moses:d" -c "genre=Jazz" -c "date=1963" \
         -c "location=Copenhagen" \
         -c "copyright=1991 Storyville Records" -c "license=All Rights Reserved" \
         -c "organization=Storyville" \
         -c "contact=http://www.storyville-records.com/" \
         -c "diskid=bd10c70d" < /tmp/songlist

       See DISCID HOWTO on
       http://freedb.org/modules.php?name=Sections&sop=viewarticle&artid=6 for
       info on disk id.  Beware!  A diskid comment is _not_ mentioned in the
       xiph.org suggestions!

       (oggenc’s -t will be used by dr_cdrip. -a might be.)

       supported extra comments are (see ogg123.c)

        VERSION=, TRACKNUMBER=, ISRC=

       ARTIST is -a, ALBUM is -l TITLE is -t.

       VERSION is e.g. ’Biosphere Foo Mix’.  Multipe ARTIST tags can occur;
       this use is encouraged if applicable.  -c foo will be displayed by
       ogg123 as ’Comment: foo’.

       Run something like:

        cdcd tracks | sed 's/^.*\]\ *//' | sed 's/\ $//'

       to extract a songlist from a cddb database.

BUGS

       The format of the songinfo input file is non-standard.  Support for
       cddb is lacking.
