[SOLVED] cue2toc: CD7 Nos.27,28,29.cue:5: String too long

Hi:

Code:

$ cue2toc CD7\ Nos.27\,28\,29.cue
cue2toc: CD7 Nos.27,28,29.cue:5: String too long
$

Line 5 is:

Code:

FILE "CD7 Nos.27,28,29.wav" WAVE

I thought it was because the file had \r\n line terminators. Then I eliminated the carriage returns. But still the same error reported. I changed the string a thousand ways. No use. Any idea?

Try changing the file names of the cue and wav, and the corresponding line 5 to something a little less awkward; i.e. get rid of the space and commas.

Thanks for you post.

Code:

-rw-r--r-- 1 semoi users      1665 2011-09-21 09:42 CD7.cue
-r--r--r-- 1 semoi users 782458700 2011-02-02 15:25 CD7.wav

Code:

$ cat CD7.cue
REM GENRE Classical
REM DATE 1992
PERFORMER "Beethoven - Backhaus"
TITLE "Sonates - CD 7"
FILE "CD7.wav" WAVE
  TRACK 01 AUDIO
    TITLE "Sonate no.27 en mi mineur Op.90 - I. Mit Lebhaftigkeit und durchaus m
it Empfindung und Ausdruck"
    INDEX 00 00:00:00
    INDEX 01 00:00:33

Code:

$ cue2toc CD7.cue
cue2toc:CD7.cue:5: String too long
$

That is, I shorten the filename (line 5 in the .cue) to 'CD7', and still cue2toc objects.

EDIT: the error message was probably right, although it seemed logical for me to inspect line 5 alone. However, it is really objecting one or more track titles. They are indeed long!
