Combine lots of mp3s into one file. They will be combined in alphabetical order so prepare the filenames ahead of time with leading zeros if needed (e.g. whatever-01.mp3 whatever-02.mp3 ... etc)

mp3wrap combined.mp3 origs/*

Strip out all the media track id3 tags from a file (useful after combining with mp3wrap)

id3convert -s file.mp3

Add media information to a single mp3 track. Here we're setting the ID3 tag for:

  • Track number -n
  • Author -a
  • Book Title -A
  • Track name -t

eyeD3 -n '1' -a 'Eric Schlosser' -A "Command and Control: Nuclear Weapons, the Damascus Accident, and the Illusion of Safety" -t "Command and Control: Nuclear Weapons, the Damascus Accident, and the Illusion of Safety" file.mp3
