I'm scripting a few tools to help me with a few things, and I'd like a CLI tool that calculates the audio checksum of a file, preferably ending up with the same checksum that EAC provides for a ripped track.
Does anyone know of such tool? Also there might be some trickyness in that EAC does not include zero-bytes in it's calculation IIRC (or was it dBPA?)
I think EAC uses plain CRC32 calculation with a different initialization vector which I currently forgot.
