I wish to add flac support to my Windows audio player so I wanted to ask a few questions. I rely on another lib for decoding/playing flac audio files so all I need to explicitly add support for is reading/writing flac metadata. 1st: I've downloaded libflac and have begun browsing. Is there a simple way to identify and carve out the pieces needed only for metadata i/o? Or will I have to

I''ve got following code in GenresHelper.rb def album_list(genre) albums = genre.albums.sort list = albums.collect { |album| link = link_to album.title, :controller => ''albums'', :action => ''show'',

A month or two ago I sent an email to this list proposing to expand the list of "standard" tags for Ogg Vorbis. No tag would be required, but if you wanted to encode certain types of information about a file, you could use a standard tag. I went through the whole discussion, and revised my proposal in light of all the comments from everyone. Here is the updated proposal. This

Some of these things may allready be addressed: Comments in oggfiles: (meaning the accutall keyword "comment(s)" With xmms you can edit oggtags, among artist and title you have "comment" * xmms creates comment attributes starting with "=" * freeamp does not seem to understand ogg-"comment" at all. * oggenc seems to like to put the comment as is without

Here's a patch that stops the flac binary from writing empty tag fields. At least in Windows world these come to files by accident. CD extraction programs pass all possible metadata entries they allow setting in the UI to flac binary and most of the time most fields are empty when basic info like artist, album, title, track number and release date are the only fields that are set.

I mentioned sub-tagging in an earlier post. Here's a more in-depth mail on what i thought of. One of the debates going on here are whether ARTIST is worthy of life. Another is whether the average user will bother filling in the detailed info Jonathan wants. Of course, all tags are optional, but nevertheless we should have a tagging-system that pleases _the_users_, that is, everybody: 1.

I''ve just been bodyslammed by a problem with has_and_belongs_to_many - as far as I can tell, if it doesn''t appear at the top of other relationship definitions it doesn''t seem to work right. For example: class Artist < ActiveRecord::Base has_and_belongs_to_many :genres has_many :albums has_many :videos has_many :cds has_many :collections end ..works fine

I change a lot of my CD to Ogg to be able to listen them easily from my computer (I use foobar, I was used to WMP but it does not support library for Ogg files and plug-ins I found for this where poor) without the need for frequent CD changing. I like my music to be richly tagged. But with classical music CD it is a real pain to tag those files. Typical problems involve: - single CD

I don't agree with the s/Ogg Vorbis/Vorbis/. vorbiscomment does edit Ogg Vorbis files, not Vorbis streams in any other encapsulation. -r On Mon, Nov 19, 2007 at 07:01:43AM -0800, ivo@svn.xiph.org wrote: > Author: ivo > Date: 2007-11-19 07:01:43 -0800 (Mon, 19 Nov 2007) > New Revision: 14188 > > Modified: > trunk/vorbis-tools/vorbiscomment/vorbiscomment.1 > Log:

I've been having problems with Amarok and K3B, but I think it comes down to a problem with flac. All my music and audio files are encoded in flac format. I've ripped my CDs using KAudioCreator and using this command to encode them (split for formatting): flac --best -o %o --tag=Artist=%{artist} --tag=Album=%{albumtitle} --tag=Date=%{year} --tag=Title=%{title}

Hi, I'm wondering: If you have audio files like foo1.ogg and foo1.mp3, and the Vorbis file has nice comments (title, tracknumber, artist, album, date, etc), is there a tool to copy the information to an MP3 file on a "best effort" strategy? I know that MP3 TAGs are quite limited regarding lengths. Regards, Ulrich

Quazgaa and I were talking about the comment tags we'd like in oggenc. Here, as requested by Michael, is the summary. Date (year in id3 land) should be supported. We suggest '-y | --date'. I suggested '%y' for passing it to the filename template, but this may be of limited utility. Track number. -n was the first choice, but is taken by the name template. We settled on

Hi, having inspected one of the files found at music.ibiblio.org, I realized that the comments are quite poor or misformatted in the files. I'm telling you, because: 1) I think it's great to have some free music 2) I think the performers deserve to be recognized Generally, I'd put as much as possible into the Vorbis comments. Then you could skip creating these index.html manually:

I'm currently using CDex with the string: -8 -V -T artist="%a" -T album="%b" -T title="%t" -T date="%y" -T tracknumber="%tn" -T genre="%g" --replay-gain -o "%2" "%1" but I decided I don't need/want ReplayGain since I can't stand how low (quiet) it plays. Funny thing is I edited the RG part

Hello all. Quick question ('Cause I'm famished and have to get something to eat) If I have a batch of files (wave and/or ogg) with a certain naming scheme. Would it be possible for me to write a small nifty (newbie) dos-batch program that could tag those ogg-files (or encode the waves with tags) with regards to the namin parameters. Let me clarify. I usually encode waves with the

I've been working towards a mp3info like tool, OggInfo, which will surplant vorbiscomment in functionality, and also incorportate mp3info like featuers. Looking at existing vorbis api calls, i find: vorbis_comment_add() /* unsupervised string insertion */ vorbis_comment_add_tag() /* formated TAG=text insertion */ vorbis_comment_query() /* scans for matching tag (up to count duplicates) and

Is there anybody who can help my for implement a feature in icecast 2? I want to update ogg vorbis meta data album/title/genre/artist via an webbased interface. like metadata.xml for mp3 files. If there`s anybody, contact my benny@name-pool.net i would pay for this feature. thanks --- >8 ---- List archives: http://www.xiph.org/archives/ icecast project homepage: http://www.icecast.org/ To

I was playing in Glade tonight with couple of GUI ideas for the vorbis comment editor. I've attached the glade file. A few notes: On the user-friendly version, we might want an "Advanced" tab that would pop up the user-hostile version to edit "non-standard" comment tags. I'm just not sure how to do that in a way that won't scare the non-technical. We need to

Hi, Peter Pawlowski's new (1.15beta) winamp decoder plugin seems quite nice, in my opinion.. The "title formatting logic" is what I've been dreaming of for ages.. Right now I've chosen "%artist / [[%[abbr20]album][-%[num2]tracknumber] / ]%title[ - %version]" I get titles such as "Artist / Title"or "Artist / Album / Title" or "Artist /

This is more of an EAC question, but I have not yet received an answer from my post on that page. Since they are closely related I thought I would give it a try here. I just bought a BIG stack of CDs (70+) and decided to recheck all of my EAC (beta 4) + FLAC (1.1.2) settings prior to ripping and encoding them. I also calibrated a new external Plextor CD-ROM too. The setting string I use in
