FLAC+CUE to multiple tracks

Wed, 26 Feb 2014 14:08:25 +0000

Let’s say we have a big single FLAC file we want to split into multiple files, we are on Fedora and we don’t want to use anything but the command line.
First of all:

[root@fedora ~]$ yum install lame ffmpeg shntool cuetools

To split the single FLAC file run:

[user@fedora ~]$ shnsplit -o flac -f file_name.cue -t "%n - %p - %t" file_name.flac

This will produce n single files, -t parameter is used to specify file name format (in this case: track_number – performer – track_name).
To copy metadata from CUE to the single files run:

CUE on nagg.eu
