You do not mention whether you by chance have CUE or TOC files that |
17 |
contains time points at which the big files should be split. If yes |
18 |
then Flacon (media-sound/flacon) can be used to split the file |
19 |
according a CUE file. It has also CDDB support (even though I don't |
20 |
remember using it and in fact it shows an error popup when I've tried |
21 |
it now) or you can edit metadata manually. If you prefer command line |
22 |
then media-sound/shntool contains command shnsplit: |
23 |
|
24 |
$ shnsplit -f <cue_file>.cue <audio_file> |
25 |
|
26 |
For more mature metadata editing I recommend media-sound/easytag. |
27 |
|
28 |
If you do not have the CUE file then Ardour (media-sound/ardour) can be |
29 |
used to create it. You would have to manually mark beginning of each |
30 |
track and then export. (It requires Jack server so it is not a |
31 |
lightweight solution but I like working with it.) |
32 |
|
33 |
Also good old media-sound/gramofile should be able split files |
34 |
automatically, but I have no experience with it. |
