I want to …
- … rip Audio CDs with FLAC output using Exact Audio Copy (EAC).
- … include an universally unique identifier for the exact release (specific label/year/country/etc.), additionally to common fields like artist, etc.
- … preferably use the MBID (MusicBrainz Identifier) for this cause, since MusicBrainz is free and quite complete.
- … add it via command line options, as EAC tags work:
-T⠀"VORBISCOMMENTFIELD=%eacplaceholder%" - … have this done on-the-fly during a single rip (i.e. no manual post-encoding lookup).
⠀
My problems are that …
- … the EAC FAQ lists some placeholders, but merely
%cddbid%(freedb ID) in regards to this question. - … I can’t quite find standardized Vorbis comment fields corresponding to music database identifiers (like
CATALOGID/CATALOGNUMBERor concrete CDDB/freedb/etc. IDs). - … though MusicBrainz Picard maps their tag system rather nicely …
- … EAC seems to be the limiting factor, since it seemingly cannot convey fetched metadata arbitrarily to the encoder parameters.
⠀
Does somebody know a solution to this?
Or is this too specific and ought to be asked someplace particularly devoted to EAC?
