README for crip - last updated: Sat May 7 04:10:30 CDT 2005
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS:
---------------------
This should help get you started:
You will need the following software installed first:
Linux, perl, cdparanoia, oggenc (Ogg Vorbis encoder) or FLAC (Free Lossless
Audio Codec encoder), vorbiscomment (from vorbistools) (if encoding to Ogg
Vorbis), vorbisgain (if you have normalization turned off as recommended),
and sox (if you want to turn normalization on or trim silence (v12.17.4 or
above necessary for silence trimming)).
Sorry about all the prerequisites, but you should have all these on
your Linux system anyway, especially if you're going to be making
good, professional-quality music files.
First, copy the CDDB_get.pm file somewhere where your perl will look
for its .pm files like so:
cp CDDB_get.pm /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/
Copy the criprc_example file to your home directory and name it .criprc:
cp criprc_example ~/.criprc
Look at the variables in the .criprc file and set them the way you want
them to be. Note that I use '-q 5' as the oggenc flags that I use to
encode, which encodes to about 160kbps Ogg Vorbis. If you don't like
it change it!
USAGE INSTRUCTIONS:
-------------------
Just `cd` to a directory on a robust drive with plenty of space. There
will be a lot of hard drive activity so make sure the drive is good and
can handle it without overheating or otherwise failing. Then run crip
from the directory where you want the .wav files and .ogg / .flac files
to go. crip assumes that your CDROM device is /dev/cdrom.
When finished just move off the music files to where you want them to go
and 'rm *' everything left in that directory.
That's it! You now have very good "professional-grade" and properly
labeled Ogg Vorbis (or FLAC) files of your music.
For a tutorial of how to answer the questions once you run the script,
plus documentation for the script, see:

(I know I need to make a new tutorial).
