opus

easyTAG selection error

Applying CD tags to my .OPUS album Scenario: just ripped a CD that said it was a certain album. Got EasyTAG1 set up for GnuDB2 and downloaded all the data for the album and found out that the burn was actually missing one song from the official disc, throwing off the whole naming and numbering scheme. I attempted to Apply the disc tags to everything omiting the missed file. It would always would fail with some off-by-one that I couldn’t escape.

Mass file conversion using find and exec

convert mp3 to opus The short solution find ./ -type f -name '*.mp3' -exec sh -c 'ffmpeg -i "{}" -f wav - | opusenc --music - "{}.opus"' \; The full journey to the solution The first trick was just to use ffmpeg to convert to .wav, and then to take that .wav output and feed it to opusenc1 ffmpeg -i input.mp3 -f wav - | opusenc –bitrate 256 - output.opus
