As its name indicates, the main goal of just-play-something.sh
is to put some
music on. Anything. What the name doesn't indicate is that the music is played
by MPD.
Its use case is to be binded to a physical button of my router (which is also my music box), so that I don't have to start a device with an MPD client to start music (this is especially useful when I first wake up in the morning). Therefore, it is written with portability in mind and tries to not use any utility that might not be present on embedded systems.
Here are the required dependencies (beside MPD itself):
mpc
(MPD's command-line client)What this script will do for you:
Tips:
just-play-something
, and a long press
(or another button) to mpc clear ; just-play-something
, so that if you
don't like what is currently in the playlist, you can force playing a random
album with a long press.MPD_HOST
variable (and possibly MPD_PORT
), for example:
MPD_HOST=192.168.0.254 just-play-somethingFrançais: voir README-fr.md.
metaflac-field2field.sh
uses metaflac to process field to field copy/move on
FLAC file metadatas.
Invocation:
metaflac-field2field.sh <ACTION> <SRC_FIELD> <DST_FIELD> <FILE.flac> \
[ <FILE2.flac> [...] ]
<ACTION>
is the action to perform on the fields, amongst “copy”, “move”,
“rmcopy” and “mvcopy”:
copy: each occurrence of SRC_FIELD
is duplicated to create an
occurrence of DST_FIELD
; all the existing occurrences of SRC_FIELD
and
DST_FIELD
are kept.
move: each occurrence of SRC_FIELD
is moved to create an occurrence of
DST_FIELD
; the existing occurrences of DST_FIELD
are kept.
rmcopy: the existing occurrences of DST_FIELD
are deleted, then each
occurrence of SRC_FIELD
is duplicated to create an occurrence of
DST_FIELD
; the occurrences of SRC_FIELD
are kept.
rmmove: the existing occurrences of DST_FIELD
are deleted, then each
occurrence of SRC_FIELD
is moved to create an occurrence of DST_FIELD
.
<SRC_FIELD>
is the action's source field.
<DST_FIELD>
is the action's destination field.
Finally, the file(s) on which the action has to be run are specified at the end of the command line.
Please note that you should always use UPPERCASE fields; lowercase fields are
not supported, and the behaviour is undefined. For example, if you try to
lowercase a field with the move command (e.g. metaflac-field2field move DATE date
), the field will just be deleted. This is because metaflac --remove-tag
is case-insensitive.
mp3car.sh
uses the pacpl (Perl Audio Converter) multi-purpose audio converter
to convert audio files in any format to low-quality MP3s suitable for listening
in a car. The goal is to maximise the number of albums that can be contained in
a CD-ROM (or USB stick). The default encoding parameters are variable bitrate
(VBR) from 32 to 128 kbps, in joint stereo.
Usage: just call the script with one or more files or directories, and they
will be converted recursively and put in the target directory (~/tmp/mp3car/
by default, edit the script to change that).
You must have installed pacpl and lame for this script to work.
Note: if you want to burn all these converted audio files to CD-ROMs, you may
be interested in the dirpacker.py
script provided in this repository.
