# System defaults for abcde version 2.7.1

# If you wish to override these system-wide settings, create your own

# CDDB options
# Choose whether you want to use CDDB or Musicbrainz. Default is CDDB
# currently recognized options are 'cddb' and 'musicbrainz'
#CDDBMETHOD=cddb

# If you wish to use a different CDDB server, edit this line.
# If you just wanted to use a proxy server, just set your http_proxy
# environment variable - wget will use it correctly.
#CDDBURL="http://freedb.freedb.org/~cddb/cddb.cgi"

# The CDDB protocol level.
# Right now 5 is latin1 output and 6 is UTF8 encoding.
#CDDBPROTO=6

# The CDDB protocol requires hello information, including a valid username
# and hostname. If you feel paranoid about giving away such info, edit this
# line - the format is username@hostname.
#HELLOINFO="`whoami`@`hostname`"

# This controls the email address CDDB changes are submitted to.
#CDDBSUBMIT=freedb-submit@freedb.org

# The following options control whether or not fetched CDDB entries
# are cached locally in $CDDBLOCALDIR
#CDDBCOPYLOCAL="n"
#CDDBLOCALDIR="$HOME/.cddb"
#CDDBLOCALRECURSIVE="y"

# If NOSUBMIT is set to y, then abcde will never prompt asking if you
# wish to submit your edited cddb file.
#NOSUBMIT=n

# If NOCDDBQUERY is set to y, then abcde will never even try to access
# the CDDB server; running abcde will automatically drop you into a
# blank cddb file to edit at your leisure.  This is the same as the
# -n option.  NOCDDBQUERY=y implies NOSUBMIT=y.
#NOCDDBQUERY=n

# Select here if you want to use the locally stored CDDB entries.
# This is useful if you do a lot of editing to those CDDB entries.
# Also, other tools like Grip store CDDB entries under $HOME/.cddb,
# so they can be reused when ripping CDs. (If this is set to "y" make
# sure that CDDBLOCALRECURSIVE is also set to "y".)
#CDDBUSELOCAL="n"

# List, separated with a comma, the fields we want the parsing function to
# output. Defaults to YEAR and GENRE, for a complete list of fields provided by
# CDDB.
# The fields are not case sensitive. Actually, "y,g" will work as fine as "Y,G"
# or "YEAR, GENRE"
#SHOWCDDBFIELDS=year,genre

# Specify the style of encoder to use here -

# CUE reader syntax for the CUE reader program to use.
# abcde supports 2 CUE modes: 'mkcue' and 'abcde.mkcue' so you can set the

# implementation, without the need of an external program.
#CUEREADERSYNTAX=default

# Specify the program to convert a CUE sheet back to a CD disc ID for CDDB queries.
# Select between '/path/to/cue2discid' (provided as an example) or

#CUE2DISCID=abcde.cue2discid

# Keep the wav files after encoding. Set it to "y" and remove "clean" from
# the list of default actions, since we purge the temp directory as default.
#KEEPWAVS=n

# Track padding: force abcde to pad tracks using 0, so every song uses a two
# digit entry. If set to "y", even a single song encoding outputs a file like
# 01.my_song.ext
#PADTRACKS=n

# Define if you want abcde to be non-interactive.
# Keep in mind that there is no way to deactivate it right now in the command
# line, so setting this option makes abcde to be always non-interactive.
#INTERACTIVE=n

# Specify 'nice'ness of the encoder, the CD reader and the distmp3 proc.
# This is a relative 'nice'ness (that is, if the parent process is at a
# nice level of 12, and the ENCNICE is set to 3, then the encoder will

#   tag implies cddb,read,encode
#   move implies cddb,read,encode,tag
#   replaygain implies cddb,read,encode,tag,move
#   playlist implies cddb
# An action can be added to the "default" action by specifying it along with
# "default", without having to repeat the default ones:
#  ACTIONS=default,playlist
# The default action list (referenced as "default") is defined in the following
# comment:
#ACTIONS=cddb,read,encode,tag,move,clean

# CD device you want to read from
# It can be defined as a singletrack flac file, but since it might change from
# file to file it makes little sense to define it here.
#CDROM=/dev/cdrom
# If we are using the IDE bus, we need CDPARANOIACDROMBUS defined as "d"
# If we are using the ide-scsi emulation layer, we need to define a "g"

# If you'd like to make a default location that overrides the current

# OUTPUTTYPE can be any of a number of formats, either a single format
# (e.g. "ogg") or a combination of them separated with ","

# Output filename format - change this to reflect your inner desire to

# You have the following variables at your disposal:

# Make sure to single-quote this variable. abcde will automatically create
# the directory portion of this filename.
# NOTICE: OUTPUTTYPE has been deprecated in the OUTPUTFORMAT string.

#Like PLAYLIST{FORMAT,DATAPREFIX} but for Various Artists discs:

# 2. Replace all spaces with an underscore (second sed command). Simply remove
#   this if you prefer spaces.
# 3. Delete a grab bag of characters which variously Windows and Linux do not permit
