About

Still in alpha-stage development

PYmuco provides an easy way to effectively convert one's music library (made up of a variety of files and formats) to a lossy format while still preserving directory structure and static files like images. The script makes use of tools created and provided by LAME, FLAC, OGG, etc.

Requirements

Needs Python 3 to run
As a minimum, one should have the following binaries
  - FLAC (for decoding)
  - LAME (for encoding)

Goals

  • Convert any (compatible?) audio format to mp3 or ogg
  • Recursively copy over all static content from current directory structure, including images
  • Apply ReplayGain onto newly created mp3
  • If missing (or required), apply IDv2/3 with latest records from freetag
  • Rename directories/files (based upon specified format)

Why

I have used several scripts, be they Shell, Python, or Ruby based to batch convert files to mp3, however all of them have been clunky to say the least. I want to create something structured and powerful to use. As simple as typing in pymuco . /newdir, and it just works. I have been working a lot with Python over the last few months, and think I have a good understand of how to make this application.

Pronunciation

Ha, really?
