Introduction to iTunes-LAME project.

Introduction

Welcome to the iTunes-LAME project page!

How To Install

Download the ZIP file, and extract the application. Drag the iTunes-LAME application into your Applications folder (or anywhere else).

To integrate iTunes-LAME into the Scripts menu of iTunes, follow these steps:

  1. Control-click on the iTunes-LAME application, and select "Show Package Contents."
  2. Navigate to Contents, then Resources.
  3. Control-click on the "Import with LAME...scpt" file and select "Make Alias."
  4. Finally, drag the alias into your "Library/iTunes/Scripts" folder.

Future Plans

At the moment, the primary goal of this project is to restore the ID3 tagging functionality that was broken with the latest iTunes updates. This is nearly finished, and really just needs more testing. Please head on over to the Downloads section to grab the latest test release!

Going forward, we can use this Wiki to brainstorm ideas for new features that we might like to add. Head on over to FeatureBrainstorm and add your idea.

How do we join the mailing list for this project?

Comment by joelnordell, Oct 03, 2007

I don't think there is one set up yet... guess we'll need to create a Google group for it.

Comment by joelnordell, Oct 26, 2007

I've just created a group for this project if anyone wants to go over there for discussion...

I'd love to compile the latest version of LAME myself but I can't find hints on using the right flags, commands etc. under Leopard. Any suggestions for a MBP CoreDuo? model?

Thanks, Pat

how to install? i just follow the instruction how to instal, but i cannot, anyone can help?

@ibudtz: What happens when you follow the instructions at the top of this page? Did you follow every step? Before step 4, close iTunes if it's running. You might need to create a new folder called "Scripts" inside /Library/iTunes or ~/Library/iTunes. If you use /Library/iTunes, the script will be available inside iTunes to all users; if you use ~/Library/iTunes (the Library folder inside your user home folder), it will only be available to your user account (but others can install the script by following the same steps). Once the script is installed, open iTunes and look for the AppleScript? logo () on the menu bar.

Yeah, the script wasn't showing up for me. The aliasing method above takes care of it. It's a great help with getting sweet, sweet audio.

Any chance on a Windows port?
