# Audio
|
||||
|
||||
Music and audiobooks is nice to have on your system.
|
||||
There are multiple different approaches on how to get it working on your system
|
||||
depending on your needs.
|
||||
This entry describes how to handle audio data.
|
||||
|
||||
## Media software
|
||||
|
||||
If you want to keep your system clean of much data, you can use this kind of setup.
|
||||
There are differences depending on your preffered software interface.
|
||||
|
||||
- [Airsonic](./airsonic.md) is a free fork of Subsonic, can be dockerized and has
|
||||
a web-interface and multiple possible client options.
|
||||
|
||||
## Audio codecs
|
||||
|
||||
An audio codec is an encoding of an audio file.
|
||||
There are lossy and lossless codecs, the latter not compromising quality for
|
||||
smaller file sizes.
|
||||
Following is a list of codecs written about in this wiki:
|
||||
|
||||
- [flac](./flac_(codec).md) is a lossless codec
|
||||
|
||||
## Extract audio files from CDs
|
||||
|
||||
You can convert your CDs to files on your computer.
|
||||
This way you don't have to search for your CDs all the time.
|
||||
|
||||
- [Exact Audio Copy](https://www.exactaudiocopy.de) for windows can rip music
|
||||
and automatically tag it with the help of a list of databases.
|
||||
- [metaflac](./linux/flac_(package).md) for linux is a programm
|
||||
to edit the tags of [flac](./flac_(codec).md) files from the command line.
|
||||
It is bundled in the `flac` package for debian and arch based systems.
|
||||
- [MusicBrainz Picard](./picard.md) for linux is a
|
||||
graphical user interface for tagging files of many different formats.
|
||||
|
||||
## Quality analysis of different versions of an album
|
||||
|
||||
While deciding on what version of an album is the best visit
|
||||
[Dynamic Range DB](https://dr.loudness-war.info).
|
||||
It shows dynamic range scorings of each version.
|
||||
|
||||
## Get additional data to an album/single
|
||||
|
||||
If additional information for an album is needed, visit
|
||||
[Discogs](https://www.discogs.com).
|
||||
Discogs has tracklists, dates and more information to nearly all versions of
|
||||
albums and singles.
|
||||
|
||||
## Naming convention
|
||||
|
||||
It is suggest to place the audio files in a directory named after the album they
|
||||
belong to.
|
||||
These album directories are placed in directories named after the album artist.
|
||||
Files can be named in the following scheme:
|
||||
|
||||
- music: `[<discnumber>.]<tracknumber>._<artist>_-_<title>`
|
||||
- audiobooks: `[<discnumber>.]<tracknumber>._<artist>_-_<album>_<tracknumber>`
|
