Ripping CDs

On Windows, the WMP (Windows Media Player) does a fine job, it has settings now to save directly to my music collection on Wenda in /home/music.

instructions on using MP3 format are here https://www.dummies.com/computers/operating-systems/windows-10/how-to-rip-cds-in-windows-10/

I used "abcde" on Debian, works great, thanks to careful tuning of the .abcde.conf file.

on Debian: abcde

Embedding cover art Fixing Genre tag Fixing Artist tag (removing "The")

If the image is big then resize down to 512x512

file cover.jpg
mv cover.jpg backup
convert backup -resize cover.jpg
for i in *mp3; do 
  eyeD3 --add-image=cover.jpg:FRONT_COVER --artist=Pentangle --genre=Folk "$i"
done

Or just add the image
