Hey hey,
I have a lot of OGG and MP3 files, already on a remote server. I need to
change/add comments. Is there a way of doing it without downloading the (full)
files? I could mount the remote directory into my system.
I tried building vorbis-tools statically, but my system only provide dynamic
libraries and I'd also love to avoid building a whole chain of dependencies.
The remote system also is a 64bit Linux, but a different distro and I can't
globally install software.
Best wishes and thanks,
Jeanette

No. Adding/Changing comments on a MP3 file in many cases requires
inserting data at the start of the file, which of course makes it
necessary to move the following data and to re-write the whole file.

actually, it depends on whether you can login to the remote server and get
shell access with a reasonable choice of mp3/ogg tagging tools.

Login and shell
yes, tools no. Is there a place to download statically

42.3 there are no audiotools that I can find. It's a
64bit system, just as my own Arch Linux. That was why I thought I could
try to build a statically linked version of id3v2 and vorbiscomment
myself.
Any ideas?

You could try a pure Perl or Python tag library.
For MP3 files with ID3 tags try this one:
http://eyed3.readthedocs.io/en/latest/installation.html
It is pure Python and has no dependencies on compiled Python modules. It
comes with the 'eye3D' command line tool.
If there's a recent Python version (3.4+) on the server, you should be
able to install it anywhere like this:
$ # make virtual environment for a separated installation
$ python -m venv env
$ source env/bin/activate
(env) $ pip install eye3D
Then, while the virtual env is activated, you can use the eye3D tool.

Hi Chris,
thanks, EyeD3 sounds very promising for the ID3 side. I'll give that a try.

Another Python lib you can try is 'mutagen':
https://mutagen.readthedocs.io/
It has support for ID3 and Vorbis, but unfortunately there seems to be
no command line tool for handling Vorbis files (there's 'mid3v2' for MP3
files), so you'd have to write Python code or find some from somebody else.
On the plus-side, it has no dependencies other than Python 2.7 or 3.4+.

You could try and upload your dynamic binaries and their required libs,
and cast some LD_LIBRARY_PATH spells.

Looks like you have to build as a separate steps static versions of
libogg and libvorbis. Probably like this:
#Create staging directory
STAGING=$HOME/staging/vorbis-tools
mkdir -p $STAGING
#Sources
SRC=$STAGING/src
mkdir -p $SRC
#Build artifacts
OUT=$STAGING/build
mkdir -p $OUT
#Build a static version of "libogg"
wget downloads.xiph.org/releases/ogg/libogg-1.3.1.tar.xz -qO-|tar -C
$SRC -xJ pushd $SRC/libogg*/
./configure --prefix=$OUT --disable-shared
make install
popd
#Build a static version of "libvorbis"
wget http://downloads.xiph.org/releases/vorbis/libvorbis-1.3.5.tar.xz
-qO-|tar -C $SRC -xJ pushd $SRC/libvorbis*/
./configure --prefix=$OUT LDFLAGS="-L$OUT/lib"
CPPFLAGS="-I$OUT/include" --disable-shared make install
popd
The vorbis-tools itself:
#Build "vorbis-tools"
wget downloads.xiph.org/releases/vorbis/vorbis-tools-1.4.0.tar.gz -qO-
| tar -C $SRC -xz
pushd $SRC/vorbis-tools*/
./configure LDFLAGS="-L$OUT/lib" CPPFLAGS="-I$OUT/include"
make
popd
Should yield something like:
ldd $SRC/vorbis-tools*/oggdec/oggdec
linux-vdso.so.1 (0x00007ffc85792000)
libm.so.6 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libm.so.6 (0x00007fbcba839000)
libc.so.6 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 (0x00007fbcba48e000)
/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007fbcbab3a000)

That's what I'm trying to avoid, if at all
possible. I will also need,
at least, id3v2 and I've had enough long and tedious encounters with
such dependency chains to last me a lifetime. :(
Well, the example results is an oggdec from vorbis-tool that will very
likely run by itself on a amazon linux server. Build static versions
of libogg and libvorbis seems to be rather quick and easy as a first
stage to build any of the vorbis tools statically.

Why not using nfs, then? No. Adding/Changing comments on a MP3 file in many
