MP3 Diags

#1 Post by robwoj44 »

http://mp3diags.sourceforge.net/
In a few words, MP3 Diags is a GUI-based application that allows end-users to identify issues with their MP3 files, fix some of the issues and make other changes, like adding track information. It also lets you "look inside" an MP3 file.
Unlike some programs that are designed to deal with a single topic (like fixing VBR headers or adding cover art), MP3 Diags is a one stop solution that identifies more than 50 different issues in MP3 files and provides the means to fix many of them (well, not everything is fixable; you can't make a 64kbps file sound like a 256kbps one.)

The dependencies:
Boost from http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=57418
QT4 from Puppy package manager

Actually I cannot find Qt4 anywhere for Lucid Puppy 5.0.1

Also, if I remember right, the installation screen said it would be found under "Utilities" but it is actually in "Multimedia." (Which is where it ought to be anyway. :) )

Finally, what command should I enter in the console to run Mp3 Diags if it won't start when I click on its menu entry? I tried all the obvious ones I could think of (mp3diags, mp3-diags, mp3_diags) with no luck.

I prepared it for puppy 4.xx, but you can check if it works in puppy 5. In console you can start it by MP3Diags.
