Hello, everyone :) I have been teaching myself to do all my work with extracting from and recording to CD's from the command line, using Red Hat Linux 8. I have been having excellent success, but there's one thing I haven't been able to figure out. Before posting this, I studied the man pages for cdrecord, cdparanoia, cdda2wav and lame, and I couldn't find what I was looking for, so here goes: is there any way that I can have the song titles that I download from CDDB be automatically made into the filenames of the tracks that I extract or encode? Example: I just ran cdda2wav -vall cddb=0 -D0,1,0 -B -Owav from the command line, and I got the following output (suitably clipped): Album title: 'Mansion Builder' [from 2nd Chapter Of Acts] Track 1: 'Rod And Staff' Track 2: 'Mansion Builder' Track 3: 'Ps. 93' Track 4: 'Gold In The Clouds' Track 5: 'I'll Give My Life Away' Track 6: 'Rainbow' Track 7: 'Well, Haven't You Heard' Track 8: 'Lightning Flash' Track 9: 'Starlight, Starbright' Track 10: 'Make My Life A Prayer To You' Track 11: 'Daydreamer' Later in the output, I got messages like these: track 1 'Rod And Staff' successfully recorded track 2 'Mansion Builder' successfully recorded track 3 'Ps. 93' successfully recorded Here are the file names relating to the above samples: audio_01.inf audio_01.wav audio_02.inf audio_02.wav audio_03.inf audio_03.wav Is there any way that, instead of the filenames being like those above, that I can just have them come out this way, so that I can save having to manually rename them if I want to make an mp3 cd (our DVD player displays the folder names and track titles on our TV :)): Mansion Builder - 2nd Chapter Of Acts.wav Ps. 93 - 2nd Chapter Of Acts.wav Rod And Staff - 2nd Chapter Of Acts.wav I just tried k3b, and it created a 2nd Chapter Of Acts/Mansion Builder folder, and it put the following automatically in it: Mansion Builder.wav Ps. 93.wav Rod And Staff.wav If anyone can enlighten me on how to do that from the command line, I would be very appreciative :). I don't care if I have to use a different command than I've been using, as I'm willing to learn :) Steven P. Ulrick
