dekagen is a front-end to several tools for the ripping, converting, and
|
|
naming of MP3 and Ogg-Vorbis files. 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 hard disk 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.
