4 NOTE: expressions in angle braces have to be substituted with
5 the corresponding numerical values.
6 For example: <delay in seconds> has to be substituted
7 with the numerical value to be used.
11 NOTE: The examples used here depend on proper default settings for interface
12 method and devices as specified in the Makefile. They can be overriden with
13 command line parameters, but here I choose to focus on simple examples.
15 Copy complete audio CDs
17 1. Copy an audio CD into wav files one per track.
21 will produce the sample wav files (one per track)
26 and the corresponding description files
31 2. Same as above but include MD-5 type signatures
36 3. Same as above but use other file name ('party_cd.wav')
38 icedax -B -M<length> party_cd.wav
43 1. Copy one track (eg track 6) into a wav file.
47 will produce a wav file including track 6
58 1. Copy from given start time to end of track
60 icedax -t6 -o<delay in 1/75 seconds>
62 will record track 6 starting at track time <delay>/75 seconds
63 from track beginning upto the end of track.
65 2. Copy from given start time and record for a given time
67 icedax -t6 -o<delay in 1/75 seconds> -d<time to record in seconds>
69 will record track 6 starting at track time <delay>/75 seconds
70 from track beginning for <time to record in seconds> seconds.
74 Copy tracks into a pipe
76 icedax -t6 -Oraw - | audio_compressor
78 will feed the audio samples (in big endian format) of track 6
79 into a secondary program audio_compressor.
80 (See also script cdda2mp3(.new) for a suggestion, how to process all tracks of
81 an audio cd with a MPEG-Layer3 encoder (not included here).)
86 1. Use icedax as a cd player
90 will copy the audio samples into a sound card (if sound card support
91 is compiled in) and will not write any file.
95 2. Get complete information on the cd
99 will try to find out a media catalog number and track related
100 information (ISRCs) in addition to indices. For CD-Extra discs
101 limited support exists to retrieve additional information.
