Howdy!
I'd like to rip my cd-s to flac files using some
command line app, like cdda2wav or cdparanoia.
Using pipe to flac utility would be nice and the
way I'd take. What program acts in that matter?
Since cdda2wav is in the base, I suppose people
use it regurarly. Something like:
program {options} - | flac - flac_file.flac
One more thing bothers me. I cannot see songs on
the cd in the way of "/dev/acd0t1". I tried to
stress it using cdcontrol, but no way. The kernel
is customized, no sound in it, and a lot of others
has gone. The box is speakers-free, so cannot
check if it plays in deed.
Best regards

What program acts in that matter?It won't work if you want the songs to have the right metadata; You'd have to supply that to the pipe in some way... For ripping I use cdparanoia: 'cdparanoia -B 1' rips all tracks. The following perl scripts reads a text file containing the metadata (artist, album name, track data) and calls flac: ----- make-flac ----- #!/usr/bin/perl # # Compiles a list of wav files into flac files. # # Author: R.F.

> audio/abcdeThank you for reply. As I see in Makefile, abcde uses cdparanoia as an engine for the job. I think I should stay with simple app. My thinkering was: what is the background app people on this list use? I consider either cdparanoia or cdda2wav. What makes me nervous is I do not see device in /dev directory. I should point to tracks on the cd, like acd0t1 etc. Best regards Zoran
K, this command as root makes the flac file:
cdparanoia 1 - | flac - -o song.flac
-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 23560791 Mar 7 15:53 song.flac
At this moment I cannot check if it plays correctly.

What program acts in that matter?What does this have to do with FreeBSD-stable? This question is better asked on freebsd-questions.> Since cdda2wav is in the base, I suppose people > use it regurarly. Something like:What do you mean by "base"? It is a port and not in the base system. -- Rick C. Petty
