Linux Cue Sheet Tool for Multiple FLAC Files Options

[meatballs]

Hi,

I have slimserver setup on a machine which also runs abcde as a ripping and encoding service. It all works fine, but I'd also like to use abcde to create the cue files.

Does anybody know a linux tool that can do that for me? I've looked at mkcue and cuegen, but they both seem geared up to single flac files per album.

At the moment, I'm using EAC on a separate windows machine to create the files after the CD has been ripped/encoded. It works, but it would be great to get abcde to do the work for me!!

You can use shntool's cue mode:

CODE

% shntool cue -c *.flac
FILE "joined.wav" WAVE
 TRACK 01 AUDIO
   INDEX 01 0:00:00
 TRACK 02 AUDIO
   INDEX 01 0:49:03
 TRACK 03 AUDIO
   INDEX 01 3:56:59
 TRACK 04 AUDIO
   INDEX 01 7:27:02
 TRACK 05 AUDIO
   INDEX 01 11:27:37
 TRACK 06 AUDIO
   INDEX 01 14:04:09
 TRACK 07 AUDIO
   INDEX 01 21:09:06
 TRACK 08 AUDIO
   INDEX 01 25:43:70
 TRACK 09 AUDIO
   INDEX 01 30:26:17
 TRACK 10 AUDIO
   INDEX 01 35:46:06
 TRACK 11 AUDIO
   INDEX 01 42:29:31

OK, many thanks. I've not heard of this tool before, so I'll give it a go.

shntool is to lossless as sox is to random-ass audio formats

no, really - it roxxers - i use fix/join/split/cat/conv all the time
