Howto burning an audio CD under Linux using just the command line
The following command set allows you to take a selection of MP3 files, convert them into WAV file format and burn them to disc.
(run the following commands as root)
Convert the MP3 files to the WAV file format
for i in `ls *.mp3`; do lame --decode $i ; done
Before you can burn the WAV files to disc you should know the bus address it is connected to (as far as the operating system is concerned). To find this out, just run the following command:
cdrecord --scanbus
Look for the comma separated address of your cd-writer in the output and substitute the comma separated address e.g. 1,0,0 with the one shown in the dev parameter in the command line below:
Burn the WAV files to disc
cdrecord -dao -pad -audio -speed=4 -v dev=ATAPI:1,0,0 *.wav
After a short while you should end up with an audio CD you can play in a standard CD player.
