Oggify 2.0 Beta 4
Oggify is now on Beta 4. This version covers a few important bugs including:
- Infinite loops with symlinks
- MP3's not getting comments set in the tag
So go ahead and download the tar file.
Oggify 2.0 Beta 3
Man, open source development happens so fast. In any case, Oggify has now gone to beta 3. Download the tar and try it out. It fixes a bug when following symlinks.
Oggify 2.0 Beta 2
Oggify is receiving a minor update to fix an error with the MP3 tagging system. Looks like it is working well.
Grab the tar and try it out. Please send any errors to me. Thanks.

Update: Oggify 2.0 Beta 3 is out to fix a dumb error with symlinks.
Oggify 2.0 Beta 1

Installation

-

oggify -s src dst(silent) is nowoggify src dst &> /dev/null -
oggify --mp3 --enc-type cbr src dst ...
Oggify 2.0 In Progress
So it happened. I got a new album ripped and went to run Oggify on my Mac Mini. It didn't work. Audio::TagLib was no longer installed due to the OS X upgrade, and I really didn't feel like making a new, sub-par, patch. That and install TagLib again. So Oggify 2.0 is in progress. Here's an idea of the big changes to deserve a major version number bump:
- It's written in Python.
This change and being able to start fresh has provided a number of excellent benefits. These are also worth noting.
Plugin architecture. Oggify provides a parent class, oggify.plugins.Codec, which if implemented provides everything for Oggify to use an input or output format. Currently I've got plugins done for flac as a source. Ogg and MP3 (vbr, cbr, abr) as output formats. So someone writes a file (flac.py), puts ...
