SUCCESS (partial anyway) :
used “sox” and trim argument…
sox DSotM.flac DSoTM-1.flac trim 0 43:30
(43:30 is approx where the applause ends, before the encore) :
then separate file for the encore :
sox DSotM.flac DSoTM-2.flac trim 43:30
That’s a better solution for my money, than splitting them with shntools / cuetools!
I’m perfectly happy just to have two large files…
YAY VICTORY!
**shntools VS Dan Tripp: **
0:1
YOU LOSE SHNTOOLS!
Not that anyone’s keeping score (my arse, I’m keeping score alright, I’ll remember this next time shntools impedes my listening pleasure!)
Thanks sox - I think it must be pushing 40 years old now, I think I first used it about 25-30 years ago…
That was a fair amount of work, but you can’t (not when I looked anyway) buy this live recording in audio format… So I had to roll my own!
Note : that’s the best art I can find for this, but the DVD was actually from 2007, and Nick Mason didn’t perform - and I’ve already embedded it as metadata in the FLAC file (and sox kindly copied that from the source into the two new files).
To celebrate - my arvo listening is the original album, purchased on vinyl in 1975 for the princely sum of $3.50 :
