Free m3u software for linux

M3U Ripper is a Firefox extension that allows you to rip the contents of an m3u, wmx, or ram playlist file link by right clicking on the link and selecting the "Rip Playlist Contents..." option from the popup menu. The option will only appear if the URL ends with the proper file extension.

All the URLs in the M3U file are downloaded via the Firefox download manager to the default download directory or the one specified in the M3U Ripper options. You can also optionally have M3U Ripper create a sub directory with the playlist file name, create the remote playlist file, create a local playlist file, and filter URLs within the playlist files via regular expressions.

MP3::M3U::Parser is a MP3 playlist parser.

SYNOPSIS

use MP3::M3U::Parser;
my $parser = MP3::M3U::Parser->new(%options);

$parser->parse(*FILEHANDLE, $scalar, "/path/to/playlist.m3u");
my $result = $parser->result;
my %info = $parser->info;

$parser->export(-format => xml,
-file => "/path/mp3.xml",
-encoding => ISO-8859-9);

$parser->export(-format => html,
-file => "/path/mp3.html",
-drives => off);

# convert all m3u files to individual html files.
foreach () {
$parser->parse($_)->export->reset;
}

# convert all m3u files to one big html file.
foreach () {
$parser->parse($_);
}
$parser->export;

MP3::M3U::Parser is a parser for M3U mp3 playlist files. It also parses the EXTINF lines (which contains id3 song name and time) if possible. You can get a parsed object or specify a format and export the parsed data to it. The format can be xml or html.

Recursively create M3U playlists is a service menu which can create a file called playlist.m3u in each directories and sub directories.
You can edit recursively_create_M3U_playlist.py to change the name of playlist.m3u
To install, simply put recursively_create_M3U_playlist.py and recursively_create_M3U_playlist.desktop in ~/.kde/share/apps/konqueror/servicemenus
You need the package fapg installed.
Dont hesitate giving feedbacks or improvements.
Enhancements:
NEW FEATURES :
- 001 ==> Ask the name of the m3u playlist file
- 002 ==> Tell when its finished
BUGS FIXES :
- 001 ==> Much faster

mp3cleanup is used to tidy up various aspects of MP3 files, including filenames, ID3 tags, path, m3u playlists, and bitrate.
This is particularly useful for hardware MP3 players that sometimes have arbitrary limitations on the files they work (well) with.
It can operate on single files or on all the files contained in a directory.
Enhancements:
- The -k option was added to check MP3s for bad frames before processing.
- The -D option was added to increase search depth.
- The -b option was added to create DOS format .m3u playlists.
- The -C option was added to copy rather than move.
- The (experimental) -g option was added to set the genre.
- Type "list" or "l" to get a list of genre numbers.
- Support for Ogg Vorbis files was added.
- The default maximum filename length was reduced to 52 chars (for iRiver).
- eyeD3 is used as well as id3tag to set tags, since sometimes tags were left inconsistent.

mcplay is not just another fontend for mpg123. It is also just another frontend for many other players (ogg123, sox, drvmidi). It is able to adjust the soundmixers volume and it is able to read and write playlist files (*.m3u). And it can be controlled via lirc.

The word mcplay stands for "my cool player" or "my cloned player" since it is a C-clone of the excellent program cplay which is written in python.

For now mcplay is in beta stage as it lacks a comfortable installation routine. And there might be some Bugs, too.

Uncompress the tar-gz file (e.g. with `tar xvzf myfile.tar.gz). Change to the newly created subdirectory and edit the Makefile e.g. by the command
vi Makefile
The lines you should change are marked with comments in the Makefile. If you have finished type
make
and mcplay should compile. If you like a sytemwide installation you should become root:
su
If you want to enable mcplays -a option (get a high priority) for all users make it suid root:
chown root mcplay
chmod +s mcplay
Now you can install the program system-wide:
make install

mousikos is a portable audio/music player manager for GNOME. It is designed to be able to support various types of portable music players connected through the parallel port or a USB port. It currently does not support any existing players. A fake player mimicked by a directory on the hard disk is currently supported as proof of concept of the rest of the features.
It is being developed under Linux. It is written in C. It requires glib, gtk+ and gnome. I intend to un-gnome-ify it sometime as some people only use KDE. It will always rely on glib and gtk however. It is distributed under the GNU General Public License (GPL) version 2 of June 1991.
It differs from other gui front-ends in these ways ways:
It relies on playlists (m3u).
It filters on the fly from high bit rate file to low bitrate files. In some cases this can be achieved by bit pealing (ogg to ogg), in others by re-encoding. This allows more files to fit on the player. The filtering capabilities are customizable so one could also have, for example, 256KBps ogg VBR to a regular 112Kbps mp3s.
Main features:
- It uses a two pane window. One for player contents one for playlist. Other player managers only have one with the player contents
- It can support multiple types of players. To add support for a given player one file must be edited and two new files must be created: .c and .h. I hope this means that existing command line programs for other players can be adapted easily for use within mousikos.
- It features a bookmarks(hotlist) menu for quick access to favorite playlists.

GRAVEMAN is a GUI frontend for CD-R tools (cdrecord, readcd, and mkisofs), cdrdao, DVD+RW tools (growisofs and dvd+rw-format), and sox.
You can also import M3U and PTS playlists.
Main features:
- burn audio cd (from wav, ogg, mp3, flac, import m3u and pts playlists)
- burn data cd and dvd
- duplicate cd
- clean rewritable cd and dvd
Enhancements:
- Just a bugfixe release to close major "invalid free" bug.
