aur/flacon 11.4.0-1 (+159 0.70)
An Audio File Encoder. Extracts audio tracks from an audio CD image to separate tracks.
I have wa-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-y too many many whole albums in mp4 form (thanks yt-dlp ).
Have a couple days off and want to get this project done of splitting large album files into individual tracks so I can create mixes like normal people with these great songs.
Technical A/V level: can operate Handbrake with ease and some skill.
Questions: Is this a sound tool? Or buggy? Easy tool? Learning curve? Are there better tools for this project than Flacon? Or worse?
just getting feet in the water on this project. all input is valuable. thank you.
then this is not the write tool and I did not read fine print. What audio cd has one file for all it’s tracks though? never seen that in this lifetime (yet). I wonder if an mp4 seperator exists?
or I could rig Handbrake into an audio-only mode but lots of trial and error.
thanks for response—going back to drawing board like a dejected wile e coyote
I have tried Flacon before, but i thought it was buggy back then, i use Freac instead now, you can try to see if the software can make sense of your whole albums and brake them down into single tracks. I have use Freac daily for many years. You can find an appimage at freacs homepage or in the aur, i hope that helps /Silvia.
Ps, Somethimes you need to have a cuesheet or m3u8 for the software to make sense of the one track file Ds.

ok I spelled it right and with too many E’s. thank you!
I use Flacon everytime I got to split a big flac/m3u file into multiple files.
One of the only software I can’t find in GTK equivalent (I use Gnome and almost only gtk apps).
Very good app but very specific I think.
Got it in Aur :
yay flacon

I mean it’s a program. It could never actually know that on a giant track it has 8 songs in it. there has to be a time delimter but beaucoop settings on this one so will take some time.
on a ripper which I used plenty of, you have 8 ogg or whatever files and a ripper makes them 8-file-of-your-choice files.
rippers don’t split 1 file into 8 without me finding the magic setting to tell it to methinks
edit: handbrake can do that with a video file. mmm
there are not 13 quincy jones tracks in your music folder. there is only one source file.
flacon sees that one flac source file as 13 songs when you open it? your did you take that one flac source file and make Flacon see the 13 songs inside that single flac file?
if yes, then Nice.
wonder if it will do it for a large mp4 file that yt-dlp scared up for me? I will try to find out.
thanks
