1 abcde (2.7-1) UNRELEASED; urgency=medium
3 * Remove Jesus and Colin from Maintainer and Uploaders fields, as
4 they've moved on. Thanks to both for their efforts!
5 * Update the Vcs- fields to point to current upstream.
6 * Clarify the old "public domain" mention in the license, now removed
8 * Remove TODO file, removed upstream
9 * New upstream version, with lots of improvements and bugfixes:
10 + Rewrite of abcde's mungefilename function. Thanks to
11 Andreas Kusalananda Kahari for this and also thanks
12 to Andrew Willis for the report which triggered the
13 rewrite. Thanks also to shughes for an earlier report.
14 This closes Issues 72 and 135.
15 + TRACKTOTAL now written to flac and ogg files. Thanks to
16 monkth for the notification. This resolves Issue 76.
17 + Support added for the downloading of album art. A huge
18 thank you to Johannes Gernemann who came forward with
19 the technique used and also the original patch. An equally
20 huge thanks to Richard who extended and greatly enhanced
21 the original patch. Detailed documentation added to the
22 abcde FAQ document although the sane defaults in place
23 will guarantee a good experience even for those who do
24 not read documentation! This closes Issue 33.
25 + Support added for ripping with the GNU Compact Disc
26 Input and Control library (libcdio) as requested by
27 both gentoo and NixOS. The utility used is cd-paranoia
28 and can best be called from a conf file as follows:
30 CDROMREADERSYNTAX=libcdio
31 CD_PARANOIA=cd-paranoia
32 CDPARANOIAOPTS="--never-skip=40 --verbose"
34 with the CD_PARANOIA variable giving the correct path
35 to cd-paranoia. I believe that cd-paranoia uses the same
36 options as cdparanoia but if I am proven incorrect this
37 will need to be rectified...
38 + Fix for encoding with bladeenc and usepipes.
39 + Fix for broken ripping with dagrab. Closes Issue 140.
40 + Fix for diskutil selecting wrong disk on OS X. Thanks
41 to Richard for this fix which closes Issue 139.
42 + Added some error checking and documentation for
43 the abcde-musicbrainz-tool. Thanks yet again to
44 Matthias Andree for this work! Closes issue 138.
45 + New variables for m4a/aac encoding options to be
46 manipulated in a users ~/.abcde.conf file:
47 1. FAACENCOPTS for faac encoding options
48 2. NEROAACENCOPTS for neroAacEnc options
49 3. FDKAACENCOPTS for fdkaacenc options
50 Note that these options replace the now obsolete AACENCOPTS.
51 + Check added for neroAacTag when encoding with neroAacEnc.
52 + Several additions to usepipes with the following encoders
56 3. mpcenc: Musepack SV8
61 The cd ripper cdda2wav (icedax) has also been added.
62 + Ripping and encoding with 'usepipes' fixed. This fix
64 + Suggested encoding options for mp3enc added to the sample
65 abcde.conf. Last release of mp3enc in 1998 but it still
66 works flawlessly with a modern abcde!
67 + Suggested encoding options for l3enc added to the sample
68 abcde.conf. Congratulations to abcde which in 2015 still
69 works with l3enc which saw its final release in 1997!
70 + Fix for -o option use with options and multiple outputs.
71 This allows for commandline options such as the following:
72 abcde -o 'flac:-8,mp3:-b 320'
73 Thanks to Matthias Andree for yet another quality patch!
74 This closes Issue 136.
75 + Support added for ReplayGain with WavPack encoding.
76 + Fix for MusePack to allow the use of the SV8 ReplayGain
77 application 'mpcgain'.
78 + Monkey's Audio (ape) encoding added. Tagging is with
79 Robert Muth's apetag. Thanks to Shantiq for testing.
80 + Simplify Opus tagging.This closes Issue 133.
81 + Allow 'clean' when OUTPUTTYPE=wav, broken for some time.
82 Thanks to Roger rogerx.oss<at>gmail.com for showing the
83 problem and demonstrating the fix. This closes Issue 94.
84 + Clarification that CDDBLOCALRECURSIVE=y is required for
85 local CDDB search. Thanks to Reuben Thomas for the
86 notification. This partially resolves Issue 121.
87 + AtomicParsley removed from debian/control, WavPack added.
88 + Details of abcde's handling of faac compiled with and
89 without mp4v2 added as a new entry to FAQs.
90 + Fix to allow display of the 'date' meta tag generated
91 by eyeD3 in vlc, Audacious and friends.
92 Thanks to Reuben Thomas. This closes Issue 126.
93 + Fix for flac floating point error. Thanks to rwvtveer
94 for the patch which closes Issue 113.
95 + Formalised 3 methods of mp3 tagging using ID3TAGV:
96 1.id3v2.4 using eyeD3 (set in abcde as the default)
99 Thanks to Adriaan for this patch which fixes issue 101.
100 + Support for WavPack added. Closes issue 123.
101 + Fix for mp3 encoding with different versions of eyeD3.
102 Thanks to Matthias Andree for this patch.

394 * Avoid completing the encoding of files if we aborted previously.
395 * Embed the CUE sheet if we have a cuesheet file and we have a single FLAC

408 - toolame is included in Debian as default MP3 encoder
409 - Use IFS to preserve spaces when adding metadata to a cuefile

411 - abcde.1 (Closes: #364978)
412 * The following entries have in common that both add an internal cue2discid
413 function. I will evaluate which one is more accurate and decide which one
414 to use. Right now they are not conflicting:
415 - Added internal mkcue and cue2discid functions (Charles Steinkuehler) and
416 add a check for internal abcde.<function> to make sure we are using the
417 correct version (not sure if needed ;)
418 - Added an internal implementation of cue2discid, so there is no need for
419 an external program to do the conversion. Thanks to Michael (sorry, his
420 mail does not have a surname).
421 * cue2discid is now an internal function, so no need for including the
422 python script in the path (Closes: #378407)

424 * abcde.1 typo (Thanks to David L. Anselmi) (Closes: #364978)
425 * Set proper nice values to not separate encoding and reading in the pipes
426 situation, while having a high priority process running in the system.
427 Also, set proper nice values to tagging tasks. Reading should remain as
428 the default higher priority task in the abcde flow (Closes: #359156)

492 * Both -z and -C unset EJECTCD to avoid ejecting the CD when a) we are
493 debuging and b) we are not using the CD.
494 * If we are not reading the CD, set "loud" to see all the output messages
495 (that is, in most of the cases, the first encoding).
496 * Added -f to force some events that otherwise would erase files from our
497 current run. In the standard configuration ("OUTPUT=vorbis") the following
498 actions will need a "-f" to force the last one:
499 abcde -a read,encode -o ogg,flac
500 abcde -a tag,move,clean
501 During the second run abcde should complain that it is trying to erase the
502 working directory while the it has not performed any action on the FLAC
503 files, which we encoded previously.

515 * Changed cdparanoia-audio-tracks to use the status file to save the data.
516 * Added the possibility of using a singletrack flac file with an embeded
517 cuesheet as a source of tracks.
518 * Added -z for easy and quick debug.
519 * BATCH has been split into two options: BATCHNORM which allows, by using
520 -b, to use the -a normalize in all the files at once, and NOGAP, that by
521 using -g, introduces the lame's --nogap extension.
522 * Added replygain using the appropriate tags with Ogg/Vorbis and Ogg/FLAC.
523 * Replaygain is an action, not a flag, since it can be performed individually
524 in the chain of events.
525 * debian/{rules,control}:
526 - Changed the target directory from tmp to abcde, to accommodate to compat
528 - Bump standards to 3.6.2.1. No changes needed.
529 * Added "decho" as a DEBUG output for some specific debug variables.
530 * Added USEPIPES file, with information about how to add Unix pipes support.
531 * Added one more checking for PIPES*_* unset variables (which means support
532 is not added to abcde).
533 * Added toolame as an optional MP3 encoder.
534 * Added a "-u" flag to set the FreeDB/whatever-cddb-server-you-use to use
535 th 6th step of the protocol and request the entries in UTF-8, which
536 hopefully will add the expected UTF-8 tags and comments.

578 * New upstream release!
579 * Defining the tracknumber now resets the first track if given a number
580 different than 1 (that is: abcde -T 1 2-10 creates songs 1 to 9).
581 * Modified the FAQ to reflect the changes on Marillat's repo
583 * Should be "space" safe: works properly when the working directory contains
584 a space (Closes: #147493).
585 * Repared the CD query for the discid code. When failing to read a disc,
586 actually report that there might be no disc in the drive.
587 * Right now, walk over the different encoders we Depends: on in Debian and
588 use the one available: if a user has a FLAC encoder, abcde will no install
589 vorbis-tools, so it will fail to run out of the box (Closes: #321216)
590 * Added CUE support. Still experimental...
591 * Added FLAC on Ogg. Still not activated, since we cannot get comments added
592 as a post-process action.
593 * Applied patches from Fedora Core (Credit goes to Nils Philippsen
594 <nphilipp@redhat.com>)
595 * Added a post_read() function to be executed before ejecting the CD.
596 * Typos reported by A Costa corrected (Closes: #311463)

598 numbers solved (Closes: #313628).
599 * vorbiscomment uses now "-R" (Closes: #303566).
600 * "-t" and "-T" use the first track as a starter for the track list.

603 in case of using ide-scsi emulation layer (Closes: #290768).
604 * Define metaflac in abcde.conf (Closes: #303555)

633 * Options passed to the encoder by using <-o ogg:"-b 192"> are now

635 * Unfortunatelly I forgot to add the starting number for tags in Ogg. For
636 MP3 is a bit more difficult, since it needs changing the X/YY code.
637 * Also, the order of the tags in metaflac is important for the utf8 names.

668 abcde (2.2.0-1) unstable; urgency=low
670 * New release! Let's see if abcde 2.2 gets into Sarge.
672 - Bumped to 3.6.1.1. No changes needed.
673 * Added support for MPP/MP+(Musepack) encoding. Although I am trying to
674 get 2.2 for Debian Sarge release, mpc seems safe enough to introduce. See
675 corecodec.org for code.
676 * Some POSIX shell corrections (making the code more portable). Thanks to
677 Guillem Jover for pointing the problem out.
678 * CDYEAR is also passed to do_move(), so one can use it for sorting the
680 * Small MacOS X fix, allowing directories with "()" to work. Thanks to Evan
682 - On the MacOS X, I still do not know if abcde works correctly. If does
683 not, please, drop a note. Or else.
684 * DOSPLAYLIST also changes "/" with "\".
685 * DATA tracks are now excluded from the ripping process using internally
686 the cdparanoia "-Q" query option. If using another ripper, it does not
687 work (at least there is no support for them in abcde)
688 (Closes: #112692, #117412).
689 * New "0" choice for "None of the above" has been introduced. If selected, a
690 template is created and the user encouraged to edit it (Closes: #147683).
691 * New options for when the PLAYLIST already exists: erase, append or keep.
692 * Bug fixes along the code:
693 - abcde.1 corrections and additions
694 - abcde corrections and code reorganization. abcde now exits earlier if
695 some of the options are incompatible. Also the actions are set as
696 variables earlier, so we use less calls to external tools.
697 - abcde.conf additions
698 * The GENRE is munged now in its own mungegenre function, so that no more
699 upper-to-lowercase is done (forced) except if the default is used.
700 * Examples added to the tarball and /usr/share/doc/abcde/examples with two
701 scripts to make abcde kind-of-a ripper daemon.
702 * Add CDDB information to Ogg/Vorbis and FLAC files (Closes: #265358).
703 * Added INTERACTIVE option. Set it to "n" and there you go, without user
705 * Changes normalize to normalize-audio (Closes: #267053)
706 * Copes with wav files being erased by the ripping tool.
707 * Small patch to support ()'s in the path under MacOSX. Thanks to Evan Jones
708 for noticing and sending the patch.
709 * Added "-w <COMMENT>". Used to give a comment to a given CD.
710 * Added "-W <number>". Used to combine "-T #01 -w CD #".
711 * Added "-t <number>" to modify the numbering from a starting point
712 (Closes: #95828). Geez! That is low bug number...
713 * Added "-T <number>" to modify also the tag entries on the songs. Currently
714 available for FLAC and Ogg/Vorbis.

952 * Added DISTMP3NICE variable, to nice the distmp3 program (Closes: #208398)

958 * Small fixes and patches.
959 + GENRE can be used for OUTPUTFORMAT and PLAYLISTFORMAT
960 + id3v2 should work now with -c for comments (Closes: #199949)
961 + small bug with batch encoding
962 + Variables are exported before the CDDB functions are called, so they
963 should use the right variables for the HTTPGET command.
964 + Tagging also use TRACKS and CDGENRE for MP3 files (kudos to Dirk
966 + FLAC encoding now uses dismp3 to encode remotelly (kudos to Taylor and
967 Kevin Cramer). HANDLE WITH CARE ;)
968 Also FLAC now uses CDGENRE and CDYEAR for tagging.
970 + Standards to 3.6.0. No changes needed.
971 + Changed Build-Depends to -Indep, since this is a POSIX shell script.
972 * tail/head change: -1 has been deprecated. Noted by Stephan Kulow.
973 * Ogg/Speex support added, for speech encoding (Closes #204635)

997 * More FreeBSD specific bits: CDROM and EJECT changes.
999 * Added CDDBPROTO for specifying the protocol level of the cddb query.
1000 * CDDB protocol upgraded to 5. CDYEAR and CDGENRE are now used for CD
1001 tagging. Patches from FreeBSD guys.

1007 abcde (2.1.2-1) unstable; urgency=low
1009 * Documentation updates: Closes: #186230.
1010 * Usual set of bug fixes and corrections.
1011 * Default behaviour of VAOUTPUTFORMAT output changed to avoid multiple
1012 directories for a same album. I think the format is more logical, and you
1013 can always split the files once they are created.
1014 * Padding track wavs with 0 so if you want to burn those wavs just cdrecord
1015 *.wav will do it. Use "-p" to force it when encoding a small (<9) number
1016 of files (Closes: #111627).
1017 * Added "KEEPWAVS" as a variable to keep those wavs. Default is "no". Can
1018 use also "-k" in the command line. (Closes: #160372).
1019 This probably should be changed with an option to move the wav files to
1020 another directory instead of just keep de abcde.<cdid> directory.
1021 * Added documentation comments about OUTPUTTYPE (Closes: #184963).
1022 * abcde.conf cleanup: (Closes: #186230, #187400).

1445 abcde (0.8.4-1) unstable; urgency=low
1447 * New name. cdgrab was already taken - the original cdgrab name
1448 belongs to a CDDA reading program for DOS dating back to 1993.
1449 It's still in use and active development, so I'm changing the
1450 name of cdgrab instead. See this URL for a description of the
1451 original cdgrab: http://www.scn.rain.com/pub/cdrom/cdgrab.txt
1453 Your old /etc/cdgrab.conf and/or ~/.cdgrab.conf can simply be
1454 renamed to /etc/abcde.conf and ~/.abcde.conf.
1456 The program name is now 'abcde'.
