15.0 > Audio > abcde (2.9.3)

abcde is a frontend command-line utility (actually, a shell script)
that grabs tracks off an audio CD, encodes them to Ogg Vorbis, MP3,
MP2, FLAC, Opus, Speex, WAV, WavPack, Musepack, AIFF, M4A/AAC, MKA,
Monkey's Audio and/or True Audio formats, and tags them all in one go.

There are many additional features that abcde supports by installing one
or more of these dependencies:

* eyeD3           for tagging MP3 files (default)
* id3lib          for tagging MP3 files (with ID3TAGV=id3tag)
* id3v2           for tagging MP3 files (with ID3TAGV=id3v2.3)
* id3             for tagging MP3 files (with ID3TAGV=id3v1)

* twolame         for creating MP2 files
* mutagen         for tagging MP2 and MP3 files (with ID3TAGV=id3v2.3
                  and ID3V2=mid3v2)

* musepack-tools  for creating Musepack files

* fdkaac          for creating M4A/AAC files
* wine            for running qaac and fhgaacenc

* mac             for creating Monkey's Audio files
* apetag          for tagging Monkey's Audio files

* tta             for creating True Audio files (default)

* glyr            for downloading album art
* mkcue           for generating cue sheets for one-album files
* vorbisgain      for adjusting the volume of Ogg Vorbis files

Set CDDBMETHOD to "cddb" if you would like to retrieve music metadata
and album art from freedb instead of MusicBrainz.

This requires: cd-discid, perl-MusicBrainz-DiscID, perl-WebService-MusicBrainz
