For whatever reason, neither of those 2 scripts worked. More excess args errors. Thanks everyone for giving it a go, I'm just going to listen to the music instead of fussing with it.
I know there's probably another thread for this sort of thing, but one of the very few Windows programs I'm longing for at the moment is called RazorLame, and I think you can guess what it does...
Ripping, converting wav to (32 kbps mono) mp3 with RipperX
this looks interesting:Now if I can only figure out how to extract the titles and artists into an .inf file, I could also have cd text!!
http://www.ibiblio.org/mp3info/
gmp3info is intended to modify the entries IN the .mp3-file.
If you want to get these informations to be used in a database, you would need to write a script, that uses the comandlineversion (mp3info).
The Help-page explains, what parameters you have to add, to extract single fields from the ID3-tags (the text in the mp3).
So you could write such a script (just structure, not executable):
If you would write the script so, that it creates CSV (Comma Seperated Values), then you could import the database.txt to gnumeric or OpenOffice Calc:
Jackson Michael;Thriller;Greatest Hits
I'm currently too tired to write that.
But if you find out the corrected syntax for mp3info and tell me, how an example-CSV should look like, I could write a small Puppybasic-program tomorrow.

This is the .inf file that cdroast creates in the directory of the mp3 or wav that you're burning with cdtext. The only problem is I usually have to type everything into cdroast for the text.

title = "Turn the Page"
artist = "Metallica"
I believe this is for tao only which is only what I have tried. I think I read somewhere that dao uses a table of contents or something.
It would be nice to have a script that would create the .inf file for each song for the cdtext.
It would be ideal to pick your songs from an .mp3 directory and have it convert/burn/include the cdtext all at once.
