MP3 Rip Kit for Linux
The MP3 Rip Kit for Linux is a hyperthreading audio rip and encoding tool to
mp3 format. It makes use of a Makefile. If you have 2 processors and/or
hyperthreading CPU support, GNU make offers the option -j 4 to start 4
lame
encoding threads simultaniously. cdrdao can be patched to use the online
CDDB audio cd database to create title songs. mp3 files names are created
from the CDDB TITLE records. Patched versions of cdrdao can be downloaded.
The multithreaded lame mp3 encoding as of version 1.0.4 has been expanded
with ID3 tag options, so that most popular mp3 players and software display
full details about title, artist and album.
So how does this work? configure your CDROM reader correctly for
cdrdao inside /usr/share/cdrdao/drivers. Figure out which device
is used for your CDROM reader. For ATAPI CDROM drives :
primary/master ( /dev/hda ): DEVICE = ATA:0,0,0
primary/slave ( /dev/hdb ): DEVICE = ATA:0,1,0
secondary/master ( /dev/hdc ): DEVICE = ATA:1,0,0
secondary/slave ( /dev/hdd ): DEVICE = ATA:1,1,0
Select a basename for your audio album :
BASE = urbansolitude
Adjust these two values (DEVICE and BASE) inside the Makefile, and next
start the full-automatic ripping of your audio cd :
# ./runit.sh
