当初、英字の大文字・小文字と数字の62種で計算し、9億通りと見積もった。だが実際に運用を始めて二つの制約が判明した。 2026年2月23日、キャッシュタグは大文字と小文字を区別しないことがわかった。$AbCdE も #$abcde も同じタグとして扱われる。使える文字は英字26種と数字10種の36種になり、空間は6200万通りに縮小した。

Recently, the tagging with #abcde doesn't work anymore. It calls #eyeD3 but it doesn't set the tags because of missing quotes in the call. I'm using the "newest" version on fedora which is from 2019.

Any idea how that happens?

I am digitizing my CD collection and I am ~100 CDs out from completion.

#abcde is the workhorse for this operation. I can recommend it if you still need to do the same.

My only gripe that ripping the CD to .WAV takes foreeeeveeeer, but encoding of almost any length is done in mere seconds.

Since abcde pulls CD information from #Musicbrainz the obscure '90s / early '00s is truly hit and miss. The most obscure stuff is grabbed fine, but something more popular requires manually entry.

Tomorrow is grocery day. Also I want to get the Velcro® working on the Pi camera. Also I need to pull down the latest camera script after I did some linting on the code this week. The beauty of git and branches.
And finally my WFMU CDs need ripped but also I need to manually tag the results. That will take a bit of time, but abcde should automate the bulk of it.

I had good luck with abcde, described here

https://abcde.einval.com/wiki/

to get it to run on my Mac using MacOS I had to set it up to use GnuDB for album info. My log of that

https://vielmetti.typepad.com/logbook/2025/04/using-abcde-and-gnudb-to-transfer-music-on-cd-to-my-nas.html

should be helpful if you run into MusicBrainz snags.

abcde should install with your favorite Linux package manager; e.g. here is the Debian info

What kind of brain-fart I had when I thought that it’d be good idea to rewrite my install script on my day off?
- A really bad one, I say after spending 6 hours doing it. It would’ve been a great day togonto ride a bicycle.
Oh well. At least while having thinking pauses, I came across abcde and actually managed to continue my cd ripping project.
#linux #script #bash #abcde
@balterwenjamin42 Yeah, I have been using #abcde for many years, it does what it's supposed to, reliably. Did you know the entire project is written in #Bash? Just recently found out!
How to rip your audio CDs to MP3 from the Linux terminal with abcde

MP3, as easy as abc…

Yesterday, I've set up a #volumio device for my daughter together with her.

We regularly go to the library and I rip the audio book CDs she borrows with a one-click script based on #abcde and copy them to the family NAS. She then used to listen to them with my Volumio (streaming from the NAS) in the living room. Now she can listen in her own room as well.

The new device is essentially a Raspberry Pi with a touch screen. The hard part now is to build a case for this thing.
