[Feature request] List formats that will lose the least information for given image #831
Comments
… Also for the specific audio CD I tried with, |
Hi, You think wrong the full toc is not CD-Text, CD-Text is CD-Text. All formats lose something as they are by design created to create pirated copies, not audited preservations. Sorry but we do not see an appropriate return of investment for the programmer-hours this feature would require to implement and maintain. |
I didnʼt expect it would take much effort to create, and even less to maintain, because Aaru already has all the information based on what it can convert. But fair enough. Iʼll either try each likely format manually or write a shell script, probably. |
i hope i can add me comment here as it is partially related to this feature request. when i try to convert one image format to another, Aaru tells me that there will be loss in information, if i want to continue i have to add the but i have no knowledge what information i will lose, to decide if i need the information or not that will gone lost. it would be nice when Aaru will give the a hint what information will be lost if i force converting from the one image format to the other image format. e.g.: |

Description
Currently,
aaru formats
lists all formats supported. I want something likeaaru formats <image>
, which will list formats that could be converted to withaaru image convert
, along with what or any information will be lost.Context
There are a lot of image formats that exist. Most things donʼt support
aaruf
(yet), but they do support others. Aaru currently requires-f
for all the formats I try because they donʼt support everything, but I donʼt know if thereʼs a format (or combination of formats) which does have everything I want.The specific thing that prompted this is a warning that bin/cue and bin/toc formats lose the
CD_FullTOC
tag, which I think is CD-Text. Iʼm sure that thereʼs some non-aaruf
format that can store CD-Text, even if it doesnʼt store the rest of the data, but I canʼt find it with the current options.Documentation
