For future reference, here's how I did it... Step 1) run cdda2wav with the "-tall and "-v" options and do a screen capture on the TOC output at the beginning. "-tall" dumps all tracks into one large file "audio.wav". "-v" generates a verbose TOC Step 2) emerge wavsplit (keywording required on my system). Step 3) Here's the cddawav TOC diagnostics at the beginning, from the screencap AUDIOtrack pre-emphasis copy-permitted tracktype channels 1-20 no no audio 2 Table of Contents: total tracks:20, (total time 44:09.01) 1.( 2:13.07), 2.( 2:28.28), 3.( 2:15.15), 4.( 1:53.73), 5.( 2:09.27), 6.( 2:31.00), 7.( 2:17.00), 8.( 2:03.55), 9.( 2:13.50), 10.( 1:52.62), 11.( 2:29.73), 12.( 2:25.28), 13.( 2:18.25), 14.( 2:14.73), 15.( 1:51.20), 16.( 2:06.20), 17.( 2:06.38), 18.( 2:29.37), 19.( 2:03.40), 20.( 2:05.05), Table of Contents: starting sectors 1.( 0), 2.( 9982), 3.( 21110), 4.( 31250), 5.( 39798), 6.( 49500), 7.( 60825), 8.( 71100), 9.( 80380), 10.( 90405), 11.( 98867), 12.( 110115), 13.( 121018), 14.( 131393), 15.( 141516), 16.( 149861), 17.( 159331), 18.( 168819), 19.( 180031), 20.( 189296), lead-out( 198676) On playing audio.wav with mplayer, I determined that the TOC time for the first track was 3 seconds too long, which threw off everything else that followed. I tweaked the output in vim, and converted it to... wavsplit audio.wav -t -H 0:2:10.07 0:2:28.28 0:2:15.15 0:1:53.73 0:2:09.27 0:2:31.00 0:2:17.00 0:2:03.55 0:2:13.50 0:1:52.62 0:2:29.73 0:2:25.28 0:2:18.25 0:2:14.73 0:1:51.20 0:2:06.20 0:2:06.38 0:2:29.37 0:2:03.40 0:2:05.05 wavsplit, as the name implies, splits .wav files. The "-t" option tells it to do consecutive tracks. The "-H" option tells it to use hours:minutes:seconds time format. Note that this option requires all 3 fields. A dummy zero is needed for hours in this case. I changed the first duration from 2:13.07 to 2:10.07, which got things aligned properly. The result of the command was a subdirectory "audio", with 21 files, "01.wav", "02.wav",...,"21.wav". The last file is 5 seconds of silent filler, and can be deleted. The remaining 20 files correpond to the 20 audio tracks on the CD. -- Walter Dnes <waltd...@waltdnes.org> I don't run "desktop environments"; I run useful applications
