XBST

I wanted a simple utility to sync my music library to something I can have on my original Xbox but I didn't find any easy to use, crossplatform and straight forward utility so I made this.

Prerequisits

• Windows or Linux (maybe macOS, untested)
• ffmpeg and ffprobe in your PATH

If you are on Windows you can easily install ffmpeg and ffprobe by opening a terminal and doing winget install ffmpeg.

If you are on Linux, well, you're probably a nerd and already have it, if not, open a terminal and do sudo apt install ffmpeg on debian based distributions.

Usage

Drag and drop your music folder onto xbst

The input music folder needs the following structure:

 📁 Music
 ├📁 Soundtrack 1
 |├ 💾 Music 1
 |├ 💾 Music 2
 |└ 💾 Music 3
 └📁 Soundtrack 2
  └ 💾 Music 1

Directory/File names must not exceed 31 characters.

Usage: xbst [OPTIONS] [INPUT] [OUTPUT]

Arguments:
  [INPUT]   Input folder of your musics [default: ./music]
  [OUTPUT]  Output folder for the database and converted musics [default: ./output]

Options:
  -b, --bitrate <BITRATE>  Bitrate for the output [default: 192]
  -h, --help               Print help
  -V, --version            Print version

Known issues

• The progress bar on soundtrack other than the first one doesn't progress
• Some files, once converted, are quieter than usual?
• Untested with a large library, probably has issues?
• Code is poo poo
