[20:43:35] <Bytram> .
[20:43:40] <progo> o
[20:45:13] <Bytram> Hi all! I'm looks for some help. I have a bunch of physical audi
[20:45:55] -!- lilitsyunetsi [lilitsyunetsi!~lilitsyun@37.252.sq.ypj] has joined #soylent
[20:46:34] <Bytram> audio CDs. I run Ubuntu Linux.
[20:47:44] <Bytram> Previously, I used Microsoft windows.
[20:49:41] <Bytram> How to I the audio \et the audio
[20:49:53] <Bytram> OOPS!
[20:51:48] <progo> uhm
[20:51:57] <Bytram> How do I get the audio from the CDs into Ubuntu Linux?
[20:51:58] <progo> I think k3b will convert audio CD tracks to wav
[20:52:08] <progo> I'm assuming you want a desktop app
[20:52:21] <progo> if you look in the ubuntu store you should find some GUIs on top of your favorite compression codecs
[20:52:54] <progo> k3b probably has a compression function built-in
[20:53:34] <Bytram> For example, one of the CDs is titled: "Boston", anoter is: Chicago's Greatesst Hits"
[20:54:09] <Bytram> yes, desktop app
[20:54:15] <progo> try k3b
[20:54:58] <progo> oh yeah Brasero is good too https://alternativeto.net
[20:54:58] <systemd> ^ 03Brasero: Reviews, Features, Pricing & Download
[20:56:44] <Bytram> I recall my existing "rips" are at 320 something (Highest fidelity)
[20:57:56] <progo> if you're using mp3, just set it to variable bit rate and "high quality". it'll be less than 320kbps, but any more bandwidth is diminishing returns for fidelity
[20:58:12] <Bytram> Well! That's plenty enough to get me started. Thank you so much!
[20:58:27] <progo> ogg and ac3 codecs will use less bandwidth for the same quality
[20:58:49] * Bytram scurries off to try things
[20:58:53] <progo> only reason not to use ogg or ac3 is old non-programmable devices that only know WMA (not good) and mp3
[20:58:59] <Bytram> nod nod
[21:00:30] <progo> oh wait. "aac" is the one apple made popular with itunes, not ac3
[21:00:41] <progo> ogg and aac are common for song archives
[21:00:57] <progo> aac usually has "m4a" extension
[21:01:13] <progo> SHOULD be patent-expired now, same as mp3
[21:01:26] <progo> ogg was never patented, or never patented with a proprietary license
[21:03:16] <ted-ious> flac is better. :)
[21:03:26] <progo> flac is lossless. and it takes up a lot more space
[21:03:41] <progo> if you're going to reconvert to another format for every weird device you can get your hands on, archive in flac
[22:22:02] <Bytram> p

[22:34:48] -!- mode/#soylent [+v requerdanos] by Imogen
[23:00:11] <chromas> mp3 is better than it used to be but also ogg vorbis war replaced by opus
[23:07:14] <ted-ious> Unfortunately most devices don't play opus.
[23:07:24] <ted-ious> Or native webm audio.
[23:08:04] <Fnord666> Does Brasero rip audio? I thought it was for burning CDs, not the other way around.
[23:11:24] <Fnord666> And does Ubuntu include an mp3 codec or does Bytram need to install something?
[23:17:51] <progo> allegedly all of the patents on mp3 expired
[23:18:10] <progo> if ubuntu doesn't include them in the main installer, you can add them, from an extra ubuntu repository, with a few commands
[23:18:26] <progo> see askubuntu.com, ddg, etc.
[23:18:40] <progo> Ubuntu's own wiki is kinda stale

[23:23:31] <chromas> In kde you can open your CD as a folder and drag mp3s into your SSD or wherever you want them
[23:45:22] -!- AzumaHazuki [AzumaHazuki!~hazuki@the.end.of.time] has joined #soylent
[23:46:11] <ted-ious> So it converts the audio to mp3 automatically?
[23:46:20] <ted-ious> How does it know what options you want?
