need help with the syntax on an abcde paramater
by newbiesforever from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5779F)
I wanted my abcde to rip in MP3, so I found this in the man page:
Code: -o [filetype][:filetypeoptions]
Select output type. Can be "vorbis" (or "ogg"), "mp3", "flac",
"spx", "mpc", "m4a", "wav", "wv", "ape", "opus", "mka" or
"aiff". Specify a comma-delimited list of output types to ob
tain all specified types. See the OUTPUTTYPE configuration
variable. One can pass options to the encoder for a specific
filetype on the command line separating them with a colon. The
options must be escaped with double-quotes.Fine, so it looked clear that the command would be: Code:abcde -o mp3...but that only produced this error message:
Code:[ERROR] abcde: eyeD3 is not in your path.
[INFO] Define the full path to the executable if it exists on your system.
[INFO] Hint: sudo apt-get installHmm...I guess I have misjudged the syntax. I also, noting the last line, tried Code:abcde -o "mp3"...but that produced the same message. Some help here?
