Description Daniel Gulotta 2005-12-25 17:57:37 UTC
In order for oggenc to parse its input correctly, any quotes in the song title, filename, etc. need to be preceded by a backslash.  However, cdmp3 does not do this.  For example, cdmp3 ran this command
"/usr/bin/cdparanoia" -d "/dev/cdrom" 1 - | "/usr/bin/oggenc" -q 3 -o "Yes - Opening (Excerpt From "Firebird Suite").ogg"
which results in an error.  The correct syntax is
"/usr/bin/cdparanoia" -d "/dev/cdrom" 1 - | "/usr/bin/oggenc" -q 3 -o "Yes - Opening (Excerpt From \"Firebird Suite\").ogg"

This can be fixed by adding
$track_filename =~ s/\"/\\\"/g;
to the cdmp3 perl script.

sound team: Would you take care of this or is this something for the treecleaners?  (last release mid 2004 and for sure more than enough alternatives available)

for users, I would recommend abcde in its place.
