Awesome

See unflac as a better replacement of this project.

split2flac

split2flac splits one big APE/FLAC/TTA/WV/WAV audio image (or a collection of such files, recursively) with CUE sheet into FLAC/M4A/MP3/OGG_VORBIS/OPUS/WAV tracks with tagging, renaming, charset conversion of cue sheet, album cover images. It also uses configuration file, so no need to pass a lot of arguments every time, only an input file. Should work in any POSIX-compliant shell.

NOTE: script is able to find cover image and cue sheet automatically (including internal ones).

Manual installation

• place split2flac somewhere (/usr/bin or /usr/local/bin is fine)

• create symbolic links to the same file like this:

  cd /usr/bin    # this is a directory where split2flac was installed
  ln -s split2flac split2mp3
  ln -s split2flac split2ogg
  ln -s split2flac split2opus
  ln -s split2flac split2m4a
  ln -s split2flac split2wav
