shntool questions
« on: July 23, 2003, 12:08:29 AM »
k...i just started using shntool after i got called out for having SBE's in my phish gorge fileset - (sigh) d'oh
i figured out how to install...it works with flac after i copied flac.exe into the installation directory...i figured out how to override the default wav output by using the -o switch...
but after going through the documentation a few times i can't find out how to override the "-fixed" addition to files or exactly how the -d switch works to specify a different directory...
can anyone point me in the right direction or offer up some advice?  also...is there a gui frontend for this?  i don't hate the command prompt but i'm a busy man  :afro:

thanks in advance

Seems like I remember Scott Brown having a way around that.  Maybe not though.

There's an easier way...just use shnfix -o shn * on your wav files. That way it'll convert the wavs to shns and fix sector boundaries all at the same time.

Otherwise, here's Scott's way around it, cut and pasted from an old post:

================
you can edit it so it doesn't add the "-fixed"
download the latest shntool source code.  open up the fix.c source file (it might be core-fix.c or somethign, i can check when at home). 
put a "//" before the #DEFINE postfix line
then down lower, put a "//" on the 2 lines that add the "-" and "fixed".  or i'll send you the binary
(if you're a computer geek already then maybe i should have just said comment out the lines that add the -fixed)

No prob. And as far as I'm aware, there's no front-end GUI for shntool. Of course, if you don't want to deal with shntool at all, just use CD-Wave to record/split your tracks; it forces everything to split on sector boundaries to begin with. +T to Kevin for remembering Scott's post...and to think it was in response to my thread but I'd forgotten it...hehe...

You are right about the CDWave splitting, but the last track normally has to be fixed.

A buddy of mine and I have kind of started to try this...  Didn't know if anyone really wanted it other than me, so maybe we'll work a little harder. ;)

yep that's typically where my SBE's are occurring....and i am using cd wave to split.  anyone know how well the align sector boundaries feature in flac works?  i haven't given it a try yet but i may have to now...or else i'll just run shntool on the wavs after splitting.

i'm just going to try one similar to macflac GUI front end.  nothing special.  it probaly own't do EVERYTHING shntool and shorten can do.  all the options will still be available through command line, but i think having fix, len, info, conv shntool commands will be useful in a first version.   to conv to shn all you have to do is the shntool conv function.

Why not just use CDWave to snip off the last millisecond of the track? Voila, no more SBE & you get to delete the resultant 2K file!
Governor Jim McGreevey was equally disturbed about the upcoming population increase. "New Jersey cannot support all of these wookies," he said. "For starters, we don't have nearly enough kindbud. At best, we can muster up a Q.P. of some beasties, but we've not a dime-bag more."

It has been a while since I did any Visual Basic stuff, but I don't think it would be THAT hard to write a Windows front end.
