<p>
|
|
<b>About:</b><br>
|
|
Mp3Fixer is a script for repairing MP3 files which display a bogus track length or bitrate in your
|
|
audio player.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
For example, if you have a track that you know is really <i>five minutes</i> long, but
|
|
Amarok shows the length as <i>one hour</i>, then this script is for you. Mp3Fixer calculates the
|
|
real track length and adds the missing XING header to the file. Additionally, Mp3Fixer is capable
|
|
of repairing broken MPEG header frames.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
It is recommended that you <i>back up</i> your MP3 file before using this script on it. Although the
|
|
script is designed not to harm your file, the operation is not reversible and should therefore
|
|
be used with caution.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
<b>Usage:</b><br>
|
|
Select a track in the playlist, then start Mp3Fixer from the context-menu (right mouse click).
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
It is also possible to use Mp3Fixer as a command line tool, by calling the mp3fix.rb script
|
|
contained in this package. mp3fix.rb only requires Ruby to be installed, not Amarok.
|
|
The Mp3Fixer Amarok Script is a frontend for this tool.
