I've been working on my ripper this week and I've added the functionality to do freedb look ups (freedb still seems to be working currently).
Some of the code to process the strings involved in communication with the server is somewhat tedious to write in C and looking at the way it's done in cdgrip.py I'm starting to appreciate the beauty of python :) Anyway, back to the point. The new sources and even a compiled binary (running binaries from the internet is a bad idea.. blaaa) can be found here: http://dcdgrip.passthejager.org/ Compiling isn't hard, extract the archive and run ./compile (you'll need gcc and all the usual stuff installed.) The main benefits are: * It's faster than cdgrip.py (at least on my system) * It doesn't use the TOC file and should work on bin/cue rips The drawbacks are: * ogg only (no mp3 support yet) * Command line only (no GUI yet) * Linux only (no windows support ever) I would like some help testing. There is no front end yet so it's still all done from the command line: $dcdgrip bin_file should rip the bin file into .cdg and .ogg files (you need oggenc installed: apt-get install oggenc, or yum install oggenc, or emerge --sync --something --something --something --blaaa) If anyone can compile it, rip a disk or two and see: * how fast it is on your system * If it gets the track naming right that would be grand. Also if anyone could get hold of a cue/bin rip of a CD+G disk and run it against the bin file and report back what happens that would also be grand :) Drew. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
