* Package name : jack Version : 4~git20230906.795fba0 Upstream Contact: Arne Zellentin <za...@users.sf.net> * URL : https://github.com/jack-cli-cd-ripper/jack * License : GPL-2+ Programming Lang: Python Description : Rip and encode CDs with one command Jack has been developed with one main goal: making OGGs (or MP3s) without having to worry. There is nearly no way that an incomplete rip goes unnoticed, e.g. jack compares WAV and OGG file sizes when continuing from a previous run. Jack also checks your HD space before doing anything (even keeps some MB free). . Jack is different from other such tools in a number of ways: - it supports different rippers and encoders - it is very configurable - it doesn't need X - it can "rip" virtual CD images like the ones created by cdrdao - when using cdparanoia, cdparanoia's status information is displayed and archived for all tracks, so you can see if something went wrong - it uses sophisticated disk space management, i.e. it schedules its ripping/encoding processes depending on available space. - freedb/gnudb/musicbrainz query, file renaming and id3/ogg-tagging - it can resume work after it has been interrupted. If all tracks have been ripped, it doesn't even need the CD anymore, even if you want to do a freedb query. - it can do a freedb query based on OGGs alone, like if you don't remember from which CD those OGGs came from. - freedb submissions I used jack a long time, until pathon3 migration. IN the meantime the author revived the project, so i want to re-introduce it into Debian.
