This is the final version of iTunesEncode.exe. Put here because there's really nowhere better to put it.

Edit: If you get a message telling you that the file is corrupt, then rename the file to iTunesEncode46.zip.gz and try again. And stop using IE, that's what causes this problem.

What changed?

download and read the readme.

Nothing has changed in it since I added the Album Art capability. People were just unable to get it from my webpage, so I posted it here.

what is it?
my winzip won't open it
"it does not appear to be a valid archive"

it's defiantly a zip archive. no problems here with WinRAR. must be a corrupted download at your side.

Same story here. Downloaded it three times. File is the correct size. Corrupt archive in Directory Opus and WinRAR too.

I figured it out. It has to do with IE and the way it sometimes handles stuff when the server is using mod_gzip.

If you get that it's a corrupt file, then rename it to iTunesEncode46.zip.gz and then try to open it with WinZip, WinRar, etc. It'll work then.

Have you tried asking Roberto if he can host @ RareWares?

That would be great...

Sergio

I consider it free-range, especially since I lost the source code. If he wants to host it at rarewares, he's quite welcome to it.

Done. Thanks.

sorry does anyone know how to go about adding album artist tag support to itunes encode?

It seems that iTunes 7.0.2 (maybe earlier, I don't know) added the ability to encode multiple tracks at once, so iTunesEncode works with fb2k now without giving errors about flushing the cache.


Edit: ... or not. Doesn't work on my home machine, core duo. argh. I spoke too soon. For some reason it seemed to work on my work computer... not sure why...

I tried omitting the -o switch so that I wouldn't have to delete anything after encoding but that doesn't appear to work.

hey guys.

first off id like to thank you otto for this fantastic peice of software. it has made my life a hell of a lot easier encoding my FLAC libraries

i have a suggestion of improving it somewhat, and i dont think it would involve too much rework of the original sourcecode (not that id know as i dont code myself )

i was wondering if it would be possible to implement a "BAND" tagging switch so that my FB2K "BAND/Album Artist" would be automatically written to the iTunes "Album Artist" tag on conversion of my files.
BAND is apparently the string iTunes uses for its "Album Artist" tag.

thanks for your time and cheers once again for this great proggy!
