The subject of this post is actually a question e.g. is there a mp3 ripper that allows the bitrate to be modified. I have looked at cdparanioa, which I believe is the foundation of most of the Linux rippers, but it does not allow modification of the bitrate. I realise I could ripper in flacc format but I have an mp3 player as does my grandaughter so I need the mp3 format. Incidentally is there a player(portable) that will play flacc encoded files?
I recently downloaded Utube ripper, and now it is in my applications panel. But oddly, It does not boot. I try to delete it to reinstall it, but I can't find it anywhere. What folder could I find it in
I'm on 10.04. Every dvd ripper I've tried so far has failed in one or another. I have all restricted extras and medibuntu codecs installed. DVD::Rip either throws an error message or stops ripping somewhere through the process Handbrake only finds some of the dvd titles OGM rip gives an "Unknown error" Acidrip says "mencoder interrupted by user"
In fact the bitrate should be 139 or possibly 132. So assume that is what is wrong. Have assiduously coated myself with nourishing smegma and the like but am unable to work out how to set the bitrate in this case.
I have the same mp3 on two different distros, Fedora 14 and Ubuntu 10.10, both using gnome. The md5sum of the mp3 is identical on both distros, but on Ubuntu the bitrate is 96kbps and on Fedora it is apparently 257kbps. Discovered this using RhythmBox but also appears in Nautilus browser, under the properties tag.
Kernel 2.6.21.5, Slakware 12.0 I have plenty of files like this:
Code:
$ file 23-1.mp3 23-1.mp3: Audio file with ID3 version 23.0 tag, MP3 encoding $
All I want to know about a file like this is the bitrate is has been created with. Can this data be inside the tag? What's a cli program that lets me know that information?
Started with a clean install, with new GeForce 6200 video card installed. Very impressed that when I tried to activate compiz, it informed me that I must download and install the relevant drivers - and it provided me with a 'one click' install! Now I'm running the latest driver (195) - well done guys!Anyway, happy as I am with a no-fuss install, I'd like to know what is everyones pick of CD ripper to MP3?
I've downloaded Asunder, but this seems very slow in comparison to other Windows-based apps I've tried.I wanted to try Sound Juicer, but unfortunately it requires some code to change from VBR to CBR @ 320kbps.
All I'd like to reliably do is rip a few audio CDs. SoundKonverter - doesn't work at all. Log tells me nothing SoundJuicer - OK for one disk. Usually crashes when the read disk is ejected and attempts are made to read the next. Failing that, it will read a few tracks and then lock up. K3B - Only rips first disk, then the progress window (form) locks up at 100%. Cancel button doesn't work. Need to kill task.
RipOff - works OK, but so slow... life's too short goobox - locks up before it even reads the disk and despite its claims I don't think it's a "rip" tool anyway.
I am wanting to reduce around 9.9gigs of music to 8gigs to fit on my phone. I have done some snooping and noticed a program called Lame. I also noticed a code:
for x in [ `ls -1 *.mp3` ]; do lame --preset 32 $x new32-${x}; done
I was wondering if someone would be able to explain the code and how I go about converting the bitrate to 96?
I am trying to find out how I can estimate the IP Layer bitrate I would get from an ethernet link? Say at 100 Mbits/s or 200 Mbits/s (powerline)? Is there a formula that I could use to calculate that?
I'm using ubuntu 9.10 and I'm trying to crack my own password with John the Ripper. I've been reading and working at this for a long time and I've not been able to crack my password. I've added a "test" account on my machine with the password "password": For my Unix Password:
YES I have read the README and the FAQ and for this problem they give the following possible problems: Q: Why doesn't John load my password file? It says "No password hashes
I am relatively new to Ubuntu and may have a security breech. I was recently looking over synaptics installed packages on my PC and noticed JOHN installed on my system. This was never installed by me nor do I think this entire APP is a dependency of something that may have been installed.My questions are... Has my system been compromised? I use an elaborate password as well as UFW.Can I determine who installed this package (i.e. local user account or remote user)?Can I determine when? The system was installed only 3 days ago.Can I determine if there have been any instances of a successful or failed remote connection to my PC?
I'm trying to install Rubyripper into Maverick using these guidelines: [URL]
But I get this error message in terminal:
Code: W: Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/aheck/ppa/ubuntu/dists/maverick/main/source/Sources.gz 404 Not Found W: Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/aheck/ppa/ubuntu/dists/maverick/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz 404 Not Found
E: Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead. Presumably because it can't find the package. But what do I do next? or is there an alternative way to install?
This may be a minor irritation, but I'm puzzled by it nonetheless. I'm ripping my CDs to MP3 using Sound Juicer with the lamemp3enc plugin and following gstreamer pipeline.
All was great a couple days ago, but suddenly the files' audio properties show 48 kbps bitrate when it should be well over 200. I even changed the pipeline to use "target=1 bitrate=256" with the same result. The files are being encoded as expected and that is reflected in the file size and the Statistics view in VLC.
I have two computers running Ubuntu 10.10. One has all the latest updates, but the other has not been updated in several days. This problem is happening on the former, but not the latter. gst-inspect lamemp3enc shows both computers have the same version of the encoder.
I thought I'd put it out to the forum here before submitting a bug in launchpad.
I'm looking for the best way to pull some video files off of DVDs onto the desktop. These are not copyright protected. I don't want a program that plays the movie and then make a duplicate like most windows programs these are TOO slow. Also if I could shrink and change the format that would be a huge bonus.
I'm vaguely remembering a video stream ripper that was open source and could be compiled for linux, mac, and windows. It's name ended with ++ and I can't remember anything else Basically, it was like StreamTransport but open source and multiprotocol capable. Can anybody help me find it again? I'd be open to alternatives too of course! My basic need is to rip anything being rendered by my video card.
I really need to burn my 64 kbps uncompressed A-Law PCM file to Audio CD uncompressed as is and make this 8 hour file appear on CD Players. What app does it for me? It must fit on CD! Goldwave makes a-law / u-law wav files BTW. I can do this with linux or windows with any application. tell me how or where to download. I have the wav files already.
I have a large collection of music albums sorted in folders which are named like this: "Zombie Ritual - 2004 - Night Of The Zombie Party" (%{artist} - %{year} - %{album}). I want to rename them so as to be indicative of the bitrate, for example, "Zombie Ritual - 2004 - Night Of The Zombie Party" => "Zombie Ritual - 2004 - Night Of The Zombie Party (@320)". It will be hard to do this manually. I tried to use EasyTag and Kid3 to do this, but they cannot add bitrate to tags.
Mencoder settings... I'm doing a simple transcoding of an avi file from FFmpeg MPEG4 codec to XVID MPEG-4 codec. The problem is that the audio bitrate is changing from 192 kbps to 32 kbps. The audio codec for both files is mp3 (MPEG-1 layer 3). (I'm transcoding the FFmpeg MPEG4 encoded avi because my blu-ray player doesn't see, let alone play it. Any XVID MPEG-4 encoded avi files the blu-ray player sees and plays fine). I ran mencoder trying the four settings below but the audio bitrate still comes out at 32 kbps:
When I convert files with mencoder I get the output with incorrect audio bitrate. Seems that mencoder ignores the bitrate I pass to it. Here's my script:
Result file should have 128kbps audio bitrate, but here are the results: Input file: 02_seminar.avi, 42Mb video: 432x320 00:05:10 25fps DivX5 1Mbps audio: 48KHz 00:05:10 Stereo 138Kbps mp3
I'm trying to read content of file to variable and use this variable in for loop. The problem is, when I have c++ comment style in file - /*. Spaces in line are also interpreted as separated lines.
For example:
Code:
Changing $files to "$files" eliminate these problems but causes that whole content of variable is treated as one string (one execution of loop).
my script has a variable which comes in the form +00.00 +0.00 -00.00 or -0.00 (the numbers can be any in that form) for any that have a + symbol I need to remove the +, but if it has a - symbol it needs to stay.
i need to make a new variable with the string from the old variable btut without any plus sign. I have tried a lot of different ways with no success, each thing I tried either left the + or removed the entire string. I think this should work but doesn't
howto to transcode multiple mp3 files to another bitrate? I have a lot of 320bits mp3 which should be converted to 192bits before I can play them on my car stereo.
I have 1 router 2 pcs. We had to move one pc away from the router so I bought a wifi card. Everything went fine, the card works and I have internet but the network is incredible slow.
