I'm sure that whatever happens with encoding, it'll involve either pipes or some other way of specifying how to encode. The big problem is tagging; we have Python libraries for writing Ogg and ID3v2.4 tags, but I haven't seen anything for FLAC.

Re: [Freevo-users] ripping interface?
A database may be an option, since we use Twisted now for the web stuff and it supports Pgsql nicely.

Any suggestions on how to structure the audio directories? I can also make a subdirectory using the 'Category' of music and or use the Artists/Groups name if CDDB returns that info. This is where a database is needed. I saw some discussion on the dev list (where this discussion should probably go :-) ) regarding mysql and saw general distaste towards using a database. You simply cannot build a useful application for searching, browsing and categorizing music and for building playlists buy just working with a directory structure. I'd really like to see some kind of listening preference data stored on each track that can be used to find the next track to listen to. I don't see this kind of thing being simple, fast, or light-weight without the use of a real database. I'm not at all opposed to working on this with someone. Frankly, I think Freevo could do well with a database, rather than working with, for example, one big honkin' XML file for TV listings. That's something that I think MythTV does quite well... Now, that being said, I still think you need to have a reasonable directory structure.
