qmp3join
reads a list of mp3 files and joins them in one mp3 file in the specified order. some conditions must be met for the parameters of each of the files (see the notes subsection below).
-f
--force
-h
--help
-o
outfile
--output=
outfile
-v
--verbose
-V
--version
both mp3 must have the same bit rate or (both) must have a variable bit rate. this restriction can be by-passed with the --force
flag.
before joining, all the streams are tested for validity. this is a time consuming operation. if the streams are not found clean, the join operation is aborted, so if you want to join dirty streams or simply qmp3join detects a clean stream as dirty, please report this as a bug and/or use cat
.
due to the mp3 file format characteristics, qmp3join
can be viewed like a better but restrictive cat
for mp3 files.
