FAPG(1) User Manuals FAPG(1) NAME fapg - Fast Audio Playlist Generator SYNOPSIS fapg [ options ] /path/to/mp3/dir1 [ /path/to/mp3/dir2 ... ] DESCRIPTION fapg is a tool to generate list of audio files (Wav, MP2, MP3, Ogg, etc) in various formats (M3U, PLS, XSPF, HTML, RSS, etc). It is very useful if you have a large amount of audio files and you want to quickly and frequently build a playlist. It is coded in C to be as fast as possible, and does not use any specific audio library (like ID3Lib). This allow you to deploy it faster and eas- ier, and to have better performances since the less informations are loaded. On the other hand, this tool is not (yet) compatible with all the known formats. OPTIONS -b|--backslash Replace the '/' with '\' in Unix path. -d|--debug Display useful messages if the program fails ;) -f|--format=m3u|pls|xspf|html|rss|pla|txx Choose which format of playlist you want to generate (default is m3u). -g|--genre=#:#:... Choose which genres (numerical values only) will be included in the generated playlist (default is all). -n|--nohardlink Avoid to parse twice the files because of hardlinks. -o|--output=/path/to/file.m3u Choose the name of the playlist file to generate (default behavior is to display on standard output). -p|--prefix=/the/prefix Replace the Unix path with another string (useful to give a Samba path for example). -r|--recursive Recursively read the subdirectories. -w|--windows Replace all Unix characters with Windows characters. -x|--exclude=#:#:... Choose which genres (numerical values only) will be excluded in the generated playlist (default is none). -c|--command=<intern|...> External binary or script that produces additional fields for RSS feeds (slow). -s|--stdin Read filenames and/or directories from standard input instead of command line. EXAMPLES Generate a PLS playlist for an album: fapg --format=pls --out- put=~/path/to/album/list.pls ~/path/to/album You have a file server using Samba which shares a large amount of audio files for Windows powered computers using Winamp. The directory on the server containing the files is /samba/mp3 and is visible on the Windows network as \\server\mp3 : cd /samba/mp3 && fapg --backslash --out- put=/samba/mp3/list.m3u --prefix='\\server\mp3\' --recursive --windows ./ An HTML playlist for an album: fapg --output=fapg.html ~/path/to/album A playlist that contains all your classical tracks may receive the genres to include (or exclude) in one or multiple portions fapg --genre=32:105 --genre=106:104:103 /path/to/all/music Generate a podcasting XML file using an external program rss.sh to generate a detailed description: fapg --output=dir.xml -f rss -c /usr/lo- cal/bin/rss.sh -r --prefix=http://thisserver/basedir path/to/mp3 Generate a playlist that will work on a Sansa e200 series MP3 player: fapg -f pla -o /path/to/playlist.pla /path/to/all/music if command starts with intern the build-in description (Author,Title,Link) is generated. Please note that in all given directories ( and in ...basedir/xml ) files called podcast.jpg are referenced. Many header fields are set to defaults using environment variables like LOGNAME or LANG.
