NAME

mp3cut - split MP3 files according to cue sheets

SYNOPSIS

sample [options] [file ...]

Options:

   --silent             don't produce verbose messages
   --id3tags            provide ID3 tags on the files
   --ident              show identification
   --help               brief help message
   --verbose            verbose information

OPTIONS

--id3tags

Provide ID3 tag information to the written MP3 files.

This requires a yet unreleased additional package. Stay tuned.

--verbose

More verbose information (default).

--silent

Less verbose information.

--version

Print a version identification to standard output and exits.

--help

Print a brief help message to standard output and exits.

--ident

Prints a program identification.

file

Input file(s), which must be valid cue sheets.

DESCRIPTION

This program will read the given cue sheets and spits the associated mp3 files according to the information in the cue sheet.

The name of the MP3 file will be taken from the cue sheet. All tracks will be written with names derived from the track title, with spaces changed to underscores, the track number prefixed, and ".mp3" added.

Some iterations may be necessary to find satisfying cut points, but it is easy to adjust the cue file data manually.

USING CDDB ENTRY DATA

mp3cut does not understand CDDB entry data. A helper program, cddb2cue can be used to generate a cue sheet from the CDDB info.

Some iterations may be necessary to find satisfying cut points, and it is easier to correct a cue file than the CDDB info.

REQUIREMENTS

MPEG::Audio::Frame 0.04 or later, except 0.07.

DISCLAIMER

Audio data can be copied incorrectly. Always check your resultant files. Never throw away the original data. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK.
