audiocue2bincue [-s] [-n] [input.cue] [output.cue]
If you have a CD image that consists of a .cue (or .ccd, .mds, etc) file and a .wav (or .ogg, .mp3, etc) audio file instead of a raw binary image, you won't be able to use it with miragextract.
Since libmirage currently (as of 3.2.4) doesn't seem to support these, the audiocue2bincue script is provided as a quick & dirty conversion tool.
audiocue2bincue reads the .cue sheet from standard input and writes the modified .cue to standard output if no filenames are given.
Default action (without -n) is to go ahead and convert the audio file(s) listed in the .cue file to raw CD audio.
| -s | Swap byte order during audio conversion. |
| -n | Don't convert audio file(s) to .bin image, just write a .cue (which won't be very useful, but it's good for testing). |
audiocue2bincue is written in Perl, so you'll need your OS's perl package installed. It doesn't use any CPAN modules, so there aren't a ton of perl-blah dependencies.
Make sure you've got libsndfile installed, including the sndfile-convert command on your $PATH.
If you have an mp3-based image, you'll need lame installed and on your $PATH, since libsndfile doesn't support mp3.
audiocue2bincue hasn't been thoroughly tested. It seems to work fine, but you may run into nonstandard/weird/broken .cue files that it can't handle.
audiocue2bincue was written by B. Watson <yalhcru@gmail.com> and released under the WTFPL: Do WTF you want with this.
