brianfreud: out of disk space?
2009-03-14 07333, 2009
brianfreud
doubt it, there was 4.6 gb free at that point
2009-03-14 07305, 2009
pbryan
Can you run with --verbose on?
2009-03-14 07317, 2009
pbryan
nikki: Some labels are putting what looks like ASINs on their spine.
2009-03-14 07312, 2009
nikki
pbryan: maybe so, that's unlikely to explain people adding them in these ones I'm looking at :P
2009-03-14 07320, 2009
pbryan
Hmm. I'm guilty of entering B0000_______ for some releases.
2009-03-14 07337, 2009
nikki
it's one of the japanese sony ones, so I predict it'll start with SRCL
2009-03-14 07308, 2009
nikki
woohoo. SRCL-6735 :D
2009-03-14 07321, 2009
brianfreud
pbryan: I'm giving it --verbose, but it's still running --discard-comments
2009-03-14 07324, 2009
pbryan
brianfreud: also, for the FLAC files in question, can you play with a FLAC player?
2009-03-14 07338, 2009
brianfreud
yep, listened to just that one a few times this week
2009-03-14 07347, 2009
pbryan
--discard-comments just prevents transfers of tags from FLAC to ogg.
2009-03-14 07355, 2009
brianfreud
k
2009-03-14 07307, 2009
brianfreud
well, with --verbose on, no extra info vs what I pastebinned
2009-03-14 07331, 2009
brianfreud
and 5.0 gb free atm on that drive
2009-03-14 07355, 2009

Can you run file "/media/Music_/To Convert/Paul Haslinger - Death Race/01 - Paul Haslinger - A Hard Sport For A Hard Age.flac"
2009-03-14 07308, 2009
pbryan
file being the *nix program to tell you what kind of file it is.
2009-03-14 07318, 2009

/media/Music_/New Done/Paul Haslinger - Death Race/01 - Paul Haslinger - A Hard Sport For A Hard Age.flac: Audio file with ID3 version 2.3, MP3 encoding
2009-03-14 07332, 2009
pbryan
Uh, that's an MP3.
2009-03-14 07336, 2009
pbryan
dude.
2009-03-14 07345, 2009
brianfreud
???, hmmm, ok, odd...
2009-03-14 07346, 2009
pbryan
It only converts FLAC files to Vorbis.
2009-03-14 07350, 2009
brianfreud
no, I know
2009-03-14 07356, 2009
pbryan
:)
2009-03-14 07359, 2009
brianfreud
how did an mp3 with .flac get in that dir??? :P
2009-03-14 07307, 2009
pbryan
I can't answer that. ;)
2009-03-14 07326, 2009
brianfreud
lol, but don't you know everything? :D
2009-03-14 07327, 2009
pbryan
That explains your problem.
2009-03-14 07330, 2009
brianfreud
yep
2009-03-14 07348, 2009
pbryan
I guess I could extend the script to really confirm it's a FLAC file before trying to transcode it.

navap: btw, your inputs are helping catch oddball parsing issues, again, thanks
only dangerous bit it that it's stripping the ID info completely, not converting the ID3 info to vorbis tags
2009-03-14 07355, 2009
brianfreud
prob safer to make that an optional switch, unless you do have it convert the tag
2009-03-14 07342, 2009
pbryan
Trying to pull-out the ID3 tags will be difficult.
2009-03-14 07317, 2009
pbryan
There are vorbis comments, no?
2009-03-14 07319, 2009
brianfreud
yeah - that's why I'm thinking maybe a "clearid3" switch
2009-03-14 07343, 2009
pbryan
Hmm?
2009-03-14 07343, 2009
brianfreud
no, when I loaded the post-processed files into quod libit, it went into the "no tags" catchall
2009-03-14 07352, 2009
pbryan
So, there are no vorbis tags.
2009-03-14 07302, 2009
pbryan
Why on earth are people encoding into FLAC with ID3 frames??
2009-03-14 07307, 2009
brianfreud
not a clue
2009-03-14 07316, 2009
pbryan
Hmm.
2009-03-14 07330, 2009
pbryan
Yeah, a bunch more work to handle the ID3 tags on FLAC files.
2009-03-14 07345, 2009
pbryan
Wow, even metaflac can't handle the file.
2009-03-14 07351, 2009
brianfreud
ah, looks like it's the default value in windows EAC, even going to flac - "Add ID3"
2009-03-14 07306, 2009
pbryan
Dude, that's fscked up.
2009-03-14 07335, 2009
pbryan
Hmm. The vorbis comments are in the files.
2009-03-14 07343, 2009
pbryan
You can see them with less.
2009-03-14 07351, 2009
pbryan
metaflac just can't read them because ID3 confuses it.
2009-03-14 07343, 2009
brianfreud
yeah, they're just not transferring then from the flac to the ogg
2009-03-14 07309, 2009
pbryan wonders how he can coerce metaflac to ignore ID3.
2009-03-14 07312, 2009
pbryan
These are definitely not compliant FLAC files we're dealing with.
2009-03-14 07359, 2009
brianfreud
nope
2009-03-14 07325, 2009
brianfreud
LOL, ok, I think this case is proof positive that the "is it possibly not part #'s?" routine works :P
2009-03-14 07340, 2009

This Is a Song, Part 1 2 3 ‐ the Subtitle, converts
2009-03-14 07345, 2009
brianfreud
This Is a Song, Part A B C ‐ the Subtitle, converts
2009-03-14 07303, 2009
brianfreud
This Is a Song, Part I II III ‐ the Subtitle, does not convert, as it fingerprints as a sentence :P
2009-03-14 07328, 2009
pbryan
brianfreud: apt-get install v2strip
2009-03-14 07353, 2009
pbryan
Strip the ID3 tags manually, then use 0.6 to transcode. That seems the safest best.

hmm...
2009-03-14 07322, 2009
nikki wonders if programs like id3v2 and eyeD3 can remove them
2009-03-14 07327, 2009
brianfreud
picard can
2009-03-14 07344, 2009
brianfreud
I'll just make sure to toss those rare ones at picard first, then at your script
2009-03-14 07351, 2009
nikki
picard isn't a command line program though :P
2009-03-14 07331, 2009
brianfreud
true
2009-03-14 07316, 2009
pbryan
v2strip seems pretty easy to use.
2009-03-14 07325, 2009
pbryan
And, complain to the uploader that he/she should uncheck the "add ID3 tags" box in EAC.
2009-03-14 07304, 2009
brianfreud
yup
2009-03-14 07314, 2009
nikki wonders how many words 2 minutes of speaking would be
2009-03-14 07323, 2009
brianfreud
ok, safe assumption to make, priority of handling-wise? C is a valid roman numeral, but would you agree the chances are hugely higher that it's part C the letter, not part C the number?
2009-03-14 07329, 2009
brianfreud
same for L?
2009-03-14 07340, 2009
nikki
part c is almost definitely the letter
2009-03-14 07350, 2009
nikki
part l? can't really imagine that either way
2009-03-14 07315, 2009
brianfreud
part 12, vs part 50 - prob still more likely to be a letter than number
2009-03-14 07321, 2009
pbryan sick. Goes back to sleep.
2009-03-14 07323, 2009
pbryan
Natta.
2009-03-14 07327, 2009
brianfreud
natta :)
2009-03-14 07323, 2009
brianfreud
ok, only really really tricky case...
2009-03-14 07347, 2009
brianfreud
dropped comma: "For the most part i can" vs "For the most part, i can"
2009-03-14 07303, 2009
brianfreud
should it assume the first is a part #?
2009-03-14 07302, 2009
nikki
brianfreud: actually, I think part l is more likely to be a typo of part i
2009-03-14 07317, 2009
nikki
since I and l look the same in a lot of fonts
2009-03-14 07332, 2009
brianfreud
maybe, but rare enough, I think, to also be 50% intentional
2009-03-14 07304, 2009
brianfreud
but fair to say that changes are higher that "Part I" without the comma, is a part #?
