NAME

ls2nocddb - produce CDDB::Fake info from a directory

SYNOPSIS

ls2nocddb [ options ] directory ...

Options:

--length    include length information
--verbose   more verbose information
--help      help message

DESCRIPTION

This program can generate CDDB::Fake information data from a directory containing MP3 files.

It requires the directory to be named Artist_Name/Album_Title.

The MP3 files in the directory must be named NN_Track_Title.mp3, where NN is the track number.

When the package MP3::Audio::Frame is available, the program can add the lengths of the tracks to the generated information.

For example: Given the directory Jazz/Dick_Onstenk/Dick's_Jazz_Stuff with the following files:

01_Body_And_Soul.mp3
02_Fly_Me_To_The_Moon.mp3
03_Lover_Man.mp3
04_Freddie_Freeloader.mp3
05_Billie's_Bounce.mp3
06_Softly_As_In_A_Morning_Sunrise.mp3

Then running ls2nocddb with option --length and argument Jazz/Dick_Onstenk/Dick's_Jazz_Stuff, will create a file named .nocddb in that directory, with the following contents:

    Dick Onstenk / Dick's Jazz Stuff

	 1. Body And Soul			 3:17
	 2. Fly Me To The Moon			 4:20
	 3. Lover Man				 6:16
	 4. Freddie Freeloader			 5:32
         5. Billie's Bounce			 4:22
         6. Softly As In A Morning Sunrise	 3:55
