MAREO ia a (M.)ultiple (A.)pplications (R.)unner for (E.)AC and (O.)thers. It has originally developed for use with EAC, but has succesfully been tested and adapted to work with CDex. It woul probably also work with any other CD ripper.

It works as a (fake) encoder that in turn runs the real encoders for each track ripped by the ripper, passing it the required parameters such as source and dest file, author, CD, track, etc. It can also be used to call other post-compress and pre-compress programs, like ReplayGain.

This is is very useful for example if you like to encode all (or some) of your CDs to Ogg Vorbis for archival, and also to MP3 for use with your MP3 player (when would iRiver support Ogg Vorbis?).

While you can rip an entire CD with EAC (and CDex) to wav, and then run multplie encoders on them, MAREO can do the multiple encodes after each track EAC (and CDex) has been ripped!

It is my (very) humble contribution to the great Hydrogenaudio comunity, to whom it is dedicated, and also to the EAC (best Free CD Ripper), CDex (best Open Source CD Ripper), foobar2000 (best Free Audio Player), Ogg Vorbis (best Open Source MP3 alternative) and LAME (best MP3 encoder) developers, and to Borland, for Delphi and Kylix, my beloved (and best Windows and Linux) programming environments.

Instructions and Download from MAREO Home Page

EMER 1.1:
* Some changes (don't remember :-P))

EMER 1.0:
* First Version

"Mareo" means dizziness in spanish...

I have tried with every version so far, and none, now up to 1.4, have worked. My commandlines have progressed, but I still get errors. Here is where I sit:

mp3 NONE @pathonly@\@extonly@ "@ownpath@\lame.exe" --alt-preset standard --nohist --add-id3v2 --ta "@artist@" --tl "@cdname@" --tt "@songname@" --tn "@track@" --ty "@year@" --tg "@genre@" --tc "LAME3.90.2 --aps" "@source@" "@dest@"
;
flac NONE @pathonly@\@extonly@ "@ownpath@\flac.exe" -7 "@source@" -o "@dest@" -T artist="@artist@" -T album="@cdname@" -T title="@songname@" -T tracknumber="@track@" -T date="@year@" -T genre="@genre@" -T comment="Exact Audio Copy (Secure mode)"

I want the files to be put in the path I choose in EAC, except in a separate directory for each encoder. This is what I am using the "@pathonly@\@extonly@" . I want them to be named according to how EAC would name them, not the temporary names, of course. From what I understand, this should name the files this way automatically, correct? Please help. Thanks

Edit: Here is my filenaming setup in EAC:

%D\%Y - %C\%A - %N - %T

so, for FLAC, I should get:
"directory chosen in EAC"\FLAC\%D\%Y - %C\%A - %N - %T

and for MP3, I should get:
"directory chosen in EAC"\MP3\%D\%Y - %C\%A - %N - %T

to mmortal03: Good luck on figuring it out. Trying to make it work gives me MAREO as defined by AtaqueEG.

to kwanbis: MAREO still deletes the apostrophes that are passed to it from the ripper. I've seen this happen with EAC, CDex, and Audiograbber. Although the track can be processed if it is gived the temp_abreviated name, when it is renamed to the final name, I get words like cant, dont, wont, instead of can't, don't, won't. If I write my action lines to no use a temp_abbreviated name, the action won't work at all; the ripper has named the file with an apostrophe and MAREO is trying to find a file named without an apostrophe.

Note to any concerned: If you add the following command to the end of MAREO.ini, it will cause an error and freeze the cmd box so you can read it and figure out what is going on.

FIN NONE NONE STOP

the problem is on your override path. you can't use there any literall (at least untill now, i would change it), so you must put the full path there like c:\eac\my_music\nnnn ... use _ instead of spaces. i would change that so the path override can use the literals (like @pathonly@).

well, it is actually delphi that does that i think, i would ftry to figure out wath to do with the apostrophes ... but is at least not that terrible ... good tip about the last thing

se perfectamente lo que significa mareo en español (i know perfectly what mareo means in spanish) ... i'm from argentina ... spanish is my moter tonge

Well, I changed them to all literal, and it still doesn't work.

I tried both

mp3 NONE D:\Music\MP3\ "@ownpath@\lame.exe" --alt-preset standard --nohist --add-id3v2 --ta "@artist@" --tl "@cdname@" --tt "@songname@" --tn "@track@" --ty "@year@" --tg "@genre@" --tc "LAME3.90.2 --aps" "@source@" "@dest@"

and

only change was removing backslash to path, just to make sure

and I get this:

2errors ocurred. Press any key to end.

the problem is where eac is putting the temp wav ... it usually is where you tell it to save ... so why don't you try to append the path to the @source@? as in d\whatever\@source@? also, copy all the log options mareo does ... so i can see the problem ... sadly, till monday, i wont be able to do tests, cuse i have all on other machine from this one ...l but we would surelly fix it if you are willing to help me

I am guessing it could have something to do with this, so I will remove it temporarily to see what happens. If this is the problem, you see, this information changes by the cd, so it would be impossible to have it all literal. I will test to see if this fixes the problem as a temporary fix.

As for copying all the error logs, that is impossible, because there is nowhere to put a "> file.txt" here, and the logging scrolls off the command screen...

I figured that out by your flag...

I just thought it was kinda funny...

Keep up the good work...

Aguante!

monday i would look at this ...

I will appreciate it a lot...btw, I wonder if this is getting any attention to be added as an integrated option in EAC?

kwanbis, is there a way to use MAREO 1.4 to do this:
-- encode to FLAC
-- normalize w/volumax
-- encode the normalized WAV to MP3
making sure the FLACs and MP3s end up in the EAC-specified destination folder?
Thanks in advance!

-- Rob

ok guys, before the anouncement, i have uploaded 1.5 to the server, i would like all that have had problems to test it and let me know.

MAREO 1.5
* Full log capabilities: each tie is run, MAREO creates a .log file where all the screen prints are also logged.
* It is posible to use Literals on the Path Override on the INI file.
* Fixed a bug where the apostophes where being deleted.
* Fixed some renaming bug (the dest path wasn't being taken into account).

YAY!!

The apostrophes are now recognized in MAREO.

The log feature is great for debugging my action lines (ends up in @ownpath@).

One suggestion: using a spell checker on the documentation might make it a little easier to follow. I understand that English is not your first language and you do quite well with it (much better than I would ever do with yours). If you'd like, I can do that for you and post it here or email it to you.

There seems to be a limit of how many characters can be passed from the ripper to MAREO; I come up with at maximum total of 243 characters. Usually this may not be a problem, but with my extremely long file naming, if I use all the parameters, the @dest@ gets truncated and causes the action to fail.

I have a work-around that works; use only the fourth parameter for passing the filename and all is well when using MAREO with Audiograbber. (1 2 3 %s) (Rip method must use 'Rip as much as possible to RAM' to pass the real filename instead of 'temp.wav')


My action lines in mareo.ini that work with Audiograbber which puts each file type in a separate folder:

wav NONE NONE "@ownpath@\WaveGain.exe" --radio --apply "@dest@"

ape NONE NONE "@ownpath@\mac.exe" "@pathonly@\@nameonly@.wav" "D:\+Rips\+apes\@nameonly@.ape" -c3000

ogg NONE NONE "@ownpath@\oggenc.exe" -q 1 --advanced-encode-option lowpass_frequency=19 "@pathonly@\@nameonly@.wav" --output="D:\+Rips\+oggs\@nameonly@.ogg"

mp3 NONE NONE "@ownpath@\lame.exe" --alt-preset standard --nohist "@pathonly@\@nameonly@.wav" "D:\+Rips\+mp3s\@nameonly@.mp3"


This is shaping up to be a very useful tool. Thanks for sharing it!

Yes ...




totally, it was also really usefull for the fixing of it



be my guest (post here if you wisht)



Actually, MAREO can receive, at least here in windows 2000, more than 4096 chars ... maybe is Audigrabber?



thanks you for sharing your info

About the limit of characters passed; it seems the culprit is Audiograbber. Audiograbber displays a box that shows the command it is passing to an external encoder, and the box I got shows a total of only 263 characters being passed. I'll contact Jackie about that.

As per your request, here are the mareo.txt and mareo.ini as they come out of a spell check from EditPad Pro ( http://www.editpadpro.net ): (I've replaced tabs with spaces; use with a fixed pitch font like Courier)

M.A.R.E.O. - (M.)ultiple (A.)pplications (R.)unner for (E.)AC and (O.)thers - Copyright © 2003 by Kwanbis

MAREO is a (M.)ultiple (A.)pplications (R.)unner for (E.)AC and (O.)thers. It has originally developed for use with EAC, but has been tested and adapted to work with CDex. It would probably also work with any other CD ripper.

It works as a (fake) encoder that in turn runs the real encoders for each track ripped by the ripper, passing it the required parameters such as source and dest file, author, CD, track, etc. It can also be used to call other post-compress and pre-compress programs, like ReplayGain.

This is very useful for example, if you like to encode all (or some) of your CDs to Ogg Vorbis for archival, and also to MP3 for use with your MP3 player (when will iRiver support Ogg Vorbis?).

While you can rip an entire CD with EAC (and CDex) to wav, and then run multiple encoders on them, MAREO can do the multiple encodes after each track EAC (and CDex) has been ripped!

It is my (very) humble contribution to the great Hydrogenaudio community, to whom it is dedicated, and also to the EAC (best Free CD Ripper), CDex (best Open Source CD Ripper), foobar2000 (best Free Audio Player), Ogg Vorbis (best Open Source MP3 alternative) and LAME (best MP3 encoder) developers, and to Borland, for Delphi and Kylix, my beloved (and best Windows and Linux) programming environments.

Configuring MAREO

MAREO is very easy to set up. It consists of only 2 steps. Configuring the CD Ripper to use MAREO, and telling MAREO in what formats do I want to encode.

First, download and decompress it to your ripper's folder.


EAC SETUP

Set EAC's Compression Options (F11) as follows:

1. Parameter passing scheme: User Defined Encoder
2. Program, including path, used for compression: (browse for) mareo.exe
3. Add ID3 tag: UNCHECKED
4. Use file extension: the file extension of the **first** format you are going to encode into
5. Additional command line options: EAC %o %s %d "%a" "%g" "%t" "%n" "%y" "%m"


VERY IMPORTANT: %o is the final name of the track, as specified on EAC's Naming Scheme (F9). If it includes a point (.) in it you must include a "fake extension". For example, if the naming scheme is "Artist - CD Name - #.- Track Name" (notice the point after the # and before the -), you must use this command line options: EAC %o.xxx %s %d "%a" "%g" "%t" "%n" "%y" "%m"


CDex SETUP

Set CDex Options -Settings (F4), Encoder as follows:

1. Encoder: External Encoder
2. Encoder path: (browse for) mareo.exe
3. File Extension: the file extension of the 1st format you are going to encode into
4. Parameter string: CDex "%a - %b - %tn - %t" %1 %2 "%a" "%b" "%t" "%tn" "%y" "%g"

CDex does not haves an option that represents the full file name of the ripped tracks, as EACs %o option does, so you have to build it "by hand". In this case "%a - %b - %tn - %t" means "artist name - cd name - track number - track name". If you want to include a point (.) in it you must include a "fake extension": .xxx . For example, if the naming scheme is "Artist - CD Name - #.- Track Name" (notice the point after the # and before the -), you must use this command line options: CDex "%a - %b - %tn - %t".xxx %1 %2 "%a" "%b" "%t" "%tn" "%y" "%g".

NOTE: the double quotes (") are used to surround parameters that can have spaces inside. For example, track name. In the case of EAC, it automatically surrounds the final, source and destination file names with " if needed. CDex uses the short file names for source and dest so it is not needed to surround in either case.

EAC & CDex:

Last, uncomment(remove the ";" from the from of the line) the lines you want to execute (or create your own following the explanation bellow).

HOW IT WORKS

After EAC/CDex finishes ripping a track, it runs MAREO, passing it, on the command line:

ExecutingProgram FinalFileName SourceFilename DestinationFilename CdArtist CdName TrackName TrackNumber Year Genre

MAREO then reads the mareo.ini file, that must be located where mareo.exe is, and for each ACTION LINE (an Action Line is any line that does not starts with a ";) replaces all the LITERALS (specials strings codes that MAREO recognizes and that start and end with @) with the correct values, finally executing the newly created (encode) command.

HERE IS THE LIST OF LITERALS AND THE VALUES THEY REPRESENT

Literal From Final Value
@program@ Command Line Parameter # 1 EAC or CDex
@finalname@ Command Line Parameter # 2 Encoded File Final File Name
@source@ Command Line Parameter # 3 FULL Source File Name
@dest@ Command Line Parameter # 4 FULL Destination File Name
@artist@ Command Line Parameter # 5 CD Artist Name
@cdname@ Command Line Parameter # 6 CD Name
@songname@ Command Line Parameter # 7 Song Name
@track@ Command Line Parameter # 8 Track (song) Number
@year@ Command Line Parameter # 9 Year of the CD release
@genre@ Command Line Parameter # 10 CD's Music Genre

@11@ Command Line Parameter # 11 Anything User Defined
.. .. ..
@nn@ Command Line Parameter # nn Anything User Defined

@ownpath@ MAREO finds out the full path to MAREO, without the ending backslash
@fullname@ MAREO finds out the full temporary name with the encoder extension
@pathonly@ MAREO finds out the full temporary path, without the ending backslash
@nameonly@ MAREO finds out the temporary name, without any extension
@extonly@ MAREO finds out the encoder file extension without the dot (ie: OGG)

As I said, the "ACTION LINES" are the actual commands MAREO would run (after replacing all the LITERALS as described above). An Action Line must contain:

ExtensionOfTheEncodedFile TextBetweenFinalEncodedNameAndExtension OverridePathName CommandToRunWithParameters

1. ExtensionOfTheEncodedFile: the string that identifies the encoded files. For example, the encoder produces ogg files, this should be ogg.
2. TextBetweenFinalEncodedNameAndExtension: used to add some text between the final file name of the encoded song, and the file extension. It is used if you want to encode with the to the more than once to the same encoder, at different qualities. For example, suppose you want to encode with LAME, in Extreme and Portable qualities, the file "mana_song1.wav". EAC and MAREO would try to generate two "mana_song1.MP3" files, one for the first encode, and the other for the second one, which is not possible. We need to define TextBetweenFinalEncodedNameAndExtension of the second Action Line to be (for example) _portable, MAREO would rename this file to "mana_song1_portable.MP3"! VERY IMPORTANT: if you don't want to add text between the file name and the file extension, put NONE, but you must include anything.
3. OverridePathName: here you can set a different path where MAREO would put the encoded file of the specific encoder. It must be a fully qualified Path Name. Also, instead of spaces, use the _. It is ignored for the first encoder Action Line, cause EAC and CDex like to rename the files themselves.
4. CommandToRunWithParameters: this is the real command that MAREO would execute, after replacing all the LITERALS with the corresponding values.


A REAL USE EXAMPLE

Suppose that our INI file consists of this 2 Action Lines:

mp3 NONE NONE "@ownpath@\lame.exe" --alt-preset standard -Z @source@ @dest@
ogg NONE C:\Portable_Player @ownpath@\oggenc.exe --quality 5 @source@ --output=f"@dest@"

and that we are ripping the song: Emma Shapplin - Etterna - 12 - La Notte Etterna.wav

After receiving the correct parameter from the command line, MAREO would take the 1st Action Line:

mp3 NONE NONE "@ownpath@\lame.exe" --alt-preset standard -Z @source@ @dest@

convert it to:

"c:\whatever\lame.exe" --alt-preset standard -Z c:\xxx\abbreviated_song_name.wav c:\xxx\abbreviated_song_name.mp3

and then execute it.

Then, it would take the 2nd Action Line:

ogg NONE C:\Portable_Player @ownpath@\oggenc.exe --quality 5 @source@ --output=f"@dest@"

convert it to:

"c:\whatever\oggenc.exe" --quality 5 c:\xxx\abbreviated_song_name.wav --output=f"c:\xxx\abbreviated_song_name.ogg"

and would rename the file:

C:\xxx\abbreviated_song_name.ogg

to

C:\Portable Player\Emma Shapplin - Etterna - 12 - La Notte Etterna.OGG.


Note how MAREO used the "C:\Portable_Player" string on the Action Line to override the original destination Path and how it added the OGG extension.

MAREO would then terminate, and pass control back to EAC/CDex, who, in turn, would rename c:\xxx\abbreviated_song_name.mp3 to Emma Shapplin - Etterna - 12 - La Notte Etterna.MP3.


INI FILE

On the INI file, I have put settings for Ogg Vorbis, LAME MP3 and MPC for practical and exemplar use. If anyone has more settings to add, for MP4, AAC, etc, post them on Hydrogenaudio's MAREO's topic.


TESTING

MAREO has been developed and tested under Windows 2000. I would really appreciate confirmation that it runs on XP, NT, 95, 98, ME.
