A Library for creating MusicBrainz DiscIDs ------------------------------------------ libdiscid is a library for creating MusicBrainz DiscIDs from audio CDs. It reads a CD's table of contents (TOC) and generates an identifier which can be used to lookup the CD at MusicBrainz (http://musicbrainz.org). Additionally, it provides a submission URL for adding the DiscID to the database. The interface of this library is new, but the DiscID algorithm and the operating system dependent CD-ROM/DVD-ROM access code have been ported from libmusicbrainz version 2. NOTE: This library is also bundled with libmusicbrainz version 3 or later. If you already have libmusicbrainz installed, there is no need to install libdiscid separately. Please report all bugs you find via the MusicBrainz bug tracker: http://bugs.musicbrainz.org/ Questions about this package may be posted to the MusicBrainz development mailing list (mb-devel): http://musicbrainz.org/list.html More information can be found at the package's official homepage: http://musicbrainz.org/products/libdiscid/ -- $Id: README 7789 2006-06-04 11:54:42Z matt $
