It means ripping tracks 2,3,4,7, output codec mp3. It'll grab CD info from CDDB server and create mp3 files and directories with CD and song titles. A sample ~/.abcde.conf:
Code: Select all
# System defaults for abcde version 2.1.x
# Nothing in this file is uncommented by default.
#
# If you wish to override these system-wide settings, create your own
# .abcde.conf file in your home directory.
# If you wish to use a different CDDB server, edit this line.
# If you just wanted to use a proxy server, just set your http_proxy
# environment variable - wget will use it correctly.
#CDDBURL="http://freedb.freedb.org/~cddb/cddb.cgi"
# The CDDB protocol requires hello information, including a valid username
# and hostname. If you feel paranoid about giving away such info, edit this
# line - the format is username@hostname.
#HELLOINFO="`whoami`@`hostname`"
# This controls the email address CDDB changes are submitted to.
#CDDBSUBMIT=freedb-submit@freedb.org
# The following options control whether or not fetched CDDB entries
# are cached locally in $CDDBLOCALDIR
#CDDBCOPYLOCAL="n"
#CDDBLOCALDIR="$HOME/.cddb"
# Select here if you want to use the locally stored CDDB entries.
# This is useful if you do a lot of editing to those CDDB entries.
# Also, other tools like Grip store CDDB entries under $HOME/.cddb,
# so they can be reused when ripping CDs.

# Specify the style of encoder to use here -
# oggenc, vorbize - for OGGENCODERSYNTAX
# lame, gogo, bladeenc, l3enc, xingmp3enc, mp3enc - for MP3ENCODERSYNTAX
# flac - the only supported for FLACENCODERSYNTAX at the moment.
# default is a valid option for oggenc, lame and flac.
# Currently this affects the default location of the binary, the variable

# This is a relative 'nice'ness (that is, if the parent process is at a
# nice level of 12, and the ENCNICE is set to 3, then the encoder will
# run with an absolute nice value of 15. Note also, that setting these

# Actions to take
# Comma-separated list of one or more of the following:
# cddb,read,normalize,encode,tag,move,playlist,clean
# encode implies read
# normalize implies read
# tag implies cddb,read,encode
# move implies cddb,read,encode,tag
# playlist implies cddb
# The default action list is defined in the following comment.
#ACTIONS=cddb,read,encode,tag,move,clean
# CDDB options
# If NOSUBMIT is set to y, then abcde will never prompt asking if you
# wish to submit your edited cddb file.
#NOSUBMIT=n
# If NOCDDBQUERY is set to y, then abcde will never even try to access
# the CDDB server; running abcde will automatically drop you into a
# blank cddb file to edit at your leisure. This is the same as the
# -n option. NOCDDBQUERY=y implies NOSUBMIT=y.
#NOCDDBQUERY=n
# CD device you want to read from
#CDROM=/dev/cdrom
# If you'd like to make a default location that overrides the current
# directory for putting mp3's, uncomment this.
#OUTPUTDIR=`pwd`
# Or if you'd just like to put the temporary .wav files somewhere else
# you can specify that here
#WAVOUTPUTDIR=`pwd`
# OUTPUTTYPE can be either "ogg", "mp3", "flac" or "spx", or a combination
# of them separated with ",": "ogg,mp3".
#OUTPUTTYPE=ogg
# Output filename format - change this to reflect your inner desire to
# organize things differently than everyone else
# You have the following variables at your disposal:
# OUTPUT, GENRE, ALBUMFILE, ARTISTFILE, TRACKFILE, and TRACKNUM.
# Make sure to single-quote this variable. abcde will automatically create
# the directory portion of this filename.
# NOTICE: OUTPUTTYPE has been deprecated in the OUTPUTFORMAT string.
# Since multiple-output was integrated we always append the file type
# to the files. Remove it from your user defined string if you are getting
# files like ".ogg.ogg".
#OUTPUTFORMAT='${ARTISTFILE}-${ALBUMFILE}/${TRACKNUM}.${TRACKFILE}'
# Like OUTPUTFORMAT but for Various Artists discs.
#VAOUTPUTFORMAT='${ARTISTFILE}/${TRACKFILE}'
# Define how many encoders to run at once. This makes for huge speedups
# on SMP systems. Defaults to 1. Equivalent to -j.
#MAXPROCS=2
# Support for systems with low disk space:
# n: Default parallelization (read entire CD in while encoding)
# y: No parallelization (rip, encode, rip, encode...)
#LOWDISK=n
# Set the playlist file location format. Uses the same variables and format
# as OUTPUTFORMAT. If the playlist is specified to be in a subdirectory, it
# will be created for you and the playlist will reference files from that
# subdirectory.
#PLAYLISTFORMAT='${ARTISTFILE}-${ALBUMFILE}.${OUTPUT}.m3u'
# If you want to prefix every filename in a playlist with an arbitrary
# string (such as 'http://you/yourstuff/'), use this option
#PLAYLISTDATAPREFIX=''
#Like PLAYLIST{FORMAT,DATAPREFIX} but for Various Artists discs:
#VAPLAYLISTFORMAT='${ARTISTFILE}-${ALBUMFILE}.${OUTPUT}.m3u'
#VAPLAYLISTDATAPREFIX=''
#This will give the playlist CR-LF line-endings, if set to "y".
#(some hardware players insist on CR-LF line-endings
#DOSPLAYLIST=n
# Custom filename munging:
# By default, abcde will do the following to CDDB data to get a useful
# filename:
# * Translate colons to a space and a dash for Windows compatibility
# * Eat control characters, single quotes, and question marks
# * Translate spaces and forward slashes to underscores
# To change that, redefine the mungefilename function.
# mungefilename recieves the CDDB data (artist, track, title, whatever)
# as $1 and outputs it on stdout.
#mungefilename ()
#{
# echo "$@" | sed s,:,\ -,g | tr \ / __ | tr -d '\"\?\[:cntrl:\]
#}
# Custom pre-read function
# By default it does nothing.
# You can set some things to get abcde funtion in better ways:
# * Close the CD tray using eject -t (if available in eject and supported by
# your CD device.
# * Set the CD speed. You can also use the built-in options, but you can also
# set it here. In Debian, eject -x and cdset -x do the job.
#pre_read ()

# If you'd like to have abcde eject the cdrom after all the tracks have been
# read, uncomment the following line.
#EJECTCD=y
# To encode on the remote machines foo, bar, baz, quux, and qiix, as well as
# on the local machine (requires distmp3 to be installed on local machine and
