Zak For Linux

Zak is a tool that converts one or more mp3 files into a single mp3 or mp4/m4a/m4b file.

The primary use for Zak is audio books. Most audio books are distributed in several files, usually one per chapter. Converting these files into a single .m4b allows one to take advantage of the iPod's bookmarking features.

Zak is written in python using the PyGTK module. Zak is designed for GNU/Linux, but it is likely possible to get it to work on other systems without too much trouble.

Requirements:

· Python · PyGTK · GTK+ · MadPlay · ffmpeg · vte · gstreamer · gstreamer-python

1. Locate your download and unpack it:

tar xzf zak-0.3.tar.gz

2. cd into the unarchived directory:

cd zak-0.3/

3. Use sudo (or root) to run the install:

sudo python setup.py install

You should now be able to run zak from the command line!
