fdkaac - command line frontend encoder for libfdk-aac
|
|
==========================================================================
|
|
|
|
Prerequisites
|
|
-------------
|
|
You need libfdk-aac.
|
|
On Posix environment, you will also need GNU gettext (for iconv.m4) and
|
|
GNU autoconf/automake.
|
|
|
|
How to build on Posix environment
|
|
---------------------------------
|
|
First, you need to build libfdk-aac and install on your system.
|
|
Once you have done it, the following will do the task.
|
|
(MinGW build can be done the same way, and doesn't require gettext/iconv)
|
|
|
|
$ autoreconf -i
|
|
$ ./configure && make && make install
|
|
|
|
How to build on MSVC
|
|
--------------------
|
|
First you have to extract libfdk-aac source here, so that directory tree will
|
|
look like the following:
|
|
+- fdk-aac ---+-documentation
|
|
| +-libAACdec
|
|
| +-libAACenc
|
|
| :
|
|
+- m4
|
|
+- missings
|
|
+- MSVC
|
|
+- src
|
|
|
|
MSVC solution for Visual Studio 2010 is under MSVC directory.
|
|
|
|
Tagging Options
|
|
---------------
|
|
Generic tagging options like --tag, --tag-from-file, --long-tag allows you
|
|
to set arbitrary tags.
|
|
Available tags and their fcc (four char code) for --tag and --tag-from-file
|
|
can be found at http://code.google.com/p/mp4v2/wiki/iTunesMetadata
|
|
|
|
For tags such as Artist where first char of fcc is copyright sign,
|
|
you can skip first char and just say like --tag="ART:Foo Bar" or
|
|
--tag-from-file=lyr:/path/to/your/lyrics.txt
|
|
|
|
Currently, --tag-from-file just stores file contents into m4a without any
|
|
character encoding / line terminater conversion.
|
|
Therefore, only use UTF-8 (without BOM) when setting text tags by this option.
|
|
|
|
On the other hand, --tag / --long-tag (and other command line arguments) are
|
|
converted from locale character encoding to UTF-8 on Posix environment.
|
|
On Windows, command line arguments are always treated as Unicode.
|
|
|
|
Tagging using JSON
|
|
------------------
|
|
With --tag-from-json, fdkaac can read JSON file and set tags from it.
|
|
By default, tags are assumed to be in the root object(dictionary) like this:
|
|
|
|
{
|
|
"title": "No Expectations",
|
|
"artist": "The Rolling Stones",
|
|
"album": "Beggars Banquet",
|
|
"track": 2
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
In this case, you can simply specify the filename like:
|
|
--tag-from-json=/path/to/json
|
|
|
|
If the object containing tags is placed somewhere else, you can optionally
|
|
specify the path of the object with dotted notation.
|
|
|
|
{
|
|
"format" : {
|
|
"filename" : "Middle Curse.flac",
|
|
"nb_streams" : 1,
|
|
"format_name" : "flac",
|
|
"format_long_name" : "raw FLAC",
|
|
"start_time" : "N/A",
|
|
"duration" : "216.146667",
|
|
"size" : "11851007.000000",
|
|
"bit_rate" : "438628.000000",
|
|
"tags" : {
|
|
"ALBUM" : "Scary World Theory",
|
|
"ARTIST" : "Lali Puna",
|
|
"DATE" : "2001",
|
|
"DISCID" : "9208CC0A",
|
|
"TITLE" : "Middle Curse",
|
|
"TRACKTOTAL" : "10",
|
|
"track" : "2"
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
In this example, tags are placed under the object "format.tags".
|
|
("format" is a child of the root, and "tags" is a child of the "format").
|
|
In this case, you can say:
|
|
--tag-from-json=/path/to/json?format.tags
|
|
|
|
For your information, ffprobe of ffmpeg project (or avprobe of libav) can
|
|
output media information/metadata in json format like this.
|
|
|
|
Note that not all tags can be read/written this way.
