What is it for?
You have a big flac-compilation, all sorted cleanly in the following style:
/path/to/media/ARTIST/ALBUMNAME/TRACKNUMBER - TRACKTITLE.flac
You want to have the possibility of autogenerating playlists for each album in the EXT3MU-format (Extended 3MU), auto-adjust permissions etc. etc. Look at the script to really understand what it is doing. This post is mainly for Johannes, to show him, that I’m a hero and I’d found out how to calculate the duration of a FLAC-file (if you also want to do this, check out the script. I’m not willing to help you while being lazy).
fix_media_directory reads Trackname, Artist and Albumname out of the path. This should be changed in another version but I’m not motivated now. If you’re, send patches.
But: You should be warned, no other formats are working, mixed compilations will result possibly in lost data. Also the script is completely alpha, it works for me but I don’t know what it will do with your collection. So be careful or not but take it for granted, I don’t care about your tears.
Where can it be found?
