HOWEVER, there are two issues. Using the --start-time and --stop-time switches using the default cue interpreter rounds down times to the nearest second. I don't know why this is - did an older version of vlc require an integer here? Removing the math.floor() function from cue.lua fixes it as expected. Issue 2 is that even though this fix finds the start and end of each track correctly when playing the file, it doesn't work when streaming. Vlc seems by default to round start times down to the nearest 10 seconds and round stop times up similarly. So each mp3 has a few seconds of the previous track at the beginning and a few seconds of the next track at the end. It would be good to know why this is, and whether it can be fixed. Meanwhile this script is useless but I thought I would put it out for discussion.
Code: Select all
--[[
Parse CUE file and transcode each track to mp3
