Re: Recording mp3 files to a CD
I put all the mp3's in a directory and from that directory I run the
following script. Use the argument "clean" to first erase the cd if
it's CDRW.
###############
#!/bin/bash
if [[ $1 == "clean" ]]
then
cdrecord -v speed=4 dev=0,1,0 blank=fast
fi
for I in *.mp3
do
mpg123 --cdr - "$I" | cdrecord -v speed=4 dev=0,1,0 -audio -nopad
-nofix -
done
cdrecord -v speed=4 dev=0,1,0 -fix
###############
