It's fun for a while. After having finished, you have + the follwing files on your HD: track_01.ogg track_02.ogg, ..., + track_nn.ogg plusjack.toc, jack.freedb, jack.progress. The last three are + used to store the state jack is in so it can resume work when + interrupted. + * Jack will create a directory called jack-xxxxxxxx for you, there it + stores all the file for the CD whose id is xxxxxxxx. After a freedb query + this directory is renamed to something human readable, like "Artist - + Title". + * When jack is interrupted, call it again using the same commandline as + before to resume work, in this case: + $ jack + * The WAV files have been deleted. If you want jack to keep them, try + $ jack -k + * Now let's try a freedb query: + $ jack -q + when succesful the files are now renamed to something more readable and + have been ID3 tagged accordingly. jack.freedb contains the queried freedb + entry, the original file has been backed up to jack.freedb.bak. + * The query failed? Ok, contribute! edit the freedb template: + $ vi jack.freedb + Note: the DTITLE should be set to + Artist / Name Of Album + or + Various Artist / Name Of Compilation + when adding a compilation, use + Artist - Title Of Track + for the track titles. Do not delete any lines from the template. Do not + change the numbers. Yes the TTITLEs start at 0 and end one track too + early. Read the freedb documentation. + * now activate the entries: + $ jack -R + now the files have been renamed and tagged. Check the names two or three + times. Typo made? No problem, you can alway undo the file renaming with + $ jack -u + Note that the ID3 tags are not undone. Fix the freedb file and again, use + $ jack -R + to activate your changes. When you are sure the freedb file is suitable + for submission, submit it (via e-mail (option -m) or via HTTP POST + (option --submit). When using the former, sendmail must be installed and + working on your machine! If you're on a dial-up, you can use the - + m option to queue submits, provided sendmail is set up accordingly): + $ jack -m + or + $jack --submit +Those were the basics. Now some more advanced examples: + * All in one: query, rip, encode, cleanup: + $ jack -Q --remove + * query any time while working: + $ jack + and, from another shell: + $ jack -d -Q + * query for unknown OGGs: + $ jack -q -g track_*.ogg + * rip from image, first, create the image: + $ cdrdao read-cd --datafile data.cdr data.toc + then make OGGs from the image: + $ jack -f data.toc +more to follow. |
