Command Line CD Ripping on Windows

Does such an app exist?  I want to:

Rip to MP3
Get data from Freedb for what's being ripped
Auto tag based on that

- all at the command line on Windows

I've googled and searched here but can't find anything.  A GUI will NOT work for what I want, i want to call this from a PHP application.

Thanks all,

Ross

Try a google search for AKRip. It is command line. Never used it but you might want to check it out. By the way, I did a Google searh for "command line cd ripper" and it was the first thing that came up. 

Edit: However, it probably doesn't do everything you are looking for.

Well I guess I'm just google impaired at the moment :-)  I had some surgery last week so I guess my pain meds are making me loopy :-)

I'll check it out shortly, thanks for pointing it out...

on gnu/linux, "jack" will do what you want.

it's a python script - so perhaps, there is a win32 port/etc.

You could probably run it under [a href="http://www.cygwin.com/]cygwin[/url]

No new information on that question?
I am searching for a a command line ripper too.
CD to Image (WAV+CUE) would be great but not essential. CD to WAV would be ok too.

A search on "mp3 ripper" in freshmeat.net gave me some results too.

If you have NERO installed, you can use the following command lines:
Code: [Select]
REM To check what's on the disc
"c:\Program Files\Ahead\Nero\NeroCmd.exe" --discinfo --drivename d
REM Extract the two first tracks
"c:\Program Files\Ahead\Nero\NeroCmd.exe" --read --drivename d --01 "01 - Track.wav" --02 "02 - Track.wav"

I don't think you can rip the entire CD as an image (Goldenhawk has a comercial tool called SNAPSHOT.exe which can do that). I really can't see the point in batching CD ripping, as you in any case will need to manually load and unload the CDs. Audiograbber has a way to automate ripping when you have two CD drives.

cdda2wav (one of the cdrtools) is a command-line ripper:

Thanks. Seems to work as I expected.
