Help With Music Player And USB Flash Storage

I'm just getting into Bash scripting, and would appreciate some help with this question. My music collection is split into a smaller, "active" set, kept on my laptop, and a much larger collection on an external hard drive. I've just converted some of the larger filetypes on my "active" set to *.mp3, and now want to move all the original files (*.flac) to the external hard drive. I need some help putting together a command or script that will recursively search my active music set for *.flac and then move them, but keeping the source directory structure. Some or all of these subdirectories may not exist on the destination.

eg. On the active music set, I may have:

/Music/artist1/album1/(a mix of *.mp3 and *.flac files)
/Music/artist2/album1/(a mix of *.mp3 and *.flac files)

and on the hard drive

/Music 2/artist1/album2/(the contents of the album)

So when copying, it'll need to create "/album1/" in "artist1" on the destination, and also "/artist2/album1/"

Thanks in advance!

Hi. I am a noob to Red Hat but have previously used but am no expert with other linuxes such as Puppy and Ubuntu. Can anyone suggest a good music file player for Red Hat (or in general) ? I have many files that I have recorded from records and cassette tapes but Itunes/ Windows won't let me play them, saying that the ORIGINAL cannot be found, so I am switching back to Linux. Thank you. Admins- if this is in the wrong area feel free to move it. Thanks.

Hello folks !
I was just curious about different music players and which is peoples favorite .There is Audacious,amarok,banshee etc and etc.So which one's your favorite and why .Please Do share with me.

Hi all,

I must confess that I haven't posted for more than a year, although I have been reading the emails that your admin staff kindly sends me. I was just about to bother you with a question regarding installing and booting into Linux from a flash drive on laptop with no hard drive in it. However, I just discovered http://www.pendrivelinux.com/, so I'll post my questions there first, since they apparently specialize in this kind of installation. Of course, comments and suggestions here would also be welcome and appreciated.

Thank you,
Bob

Firefox is blocking the Flash plugin installed on computer because it says it is out of date

I currently have this plugin:

Shockwave Flash

File: libflashplayer.so
Path: /usr/lib/flashplugin-installer/libflashplayer.so
Version: 11.2.202.440
State: Enabled (STATE_VULNERABLE_UPDATE_AVAILABLE)
Shockwave Flash 11.2 r202

MIME Type Description Suffixes
application/x-shockwave-flash Shockwave Flash swf
application/futuresplash FutureSplash Player spl

What shall I do???

(Note: Before I restarted my computer, there was an Update Information tab open and it read "Restart Nautilus Required", and when I would click on the Restart Nautilus button, nothing would happen. ...I restarted my computer and the tab has not appeared...)

I have installed fedora 21 (32 bit). When I try to run live video, it shows following message on a black screen.
The Adobe Flash Player is required for video playback

How can I install it?

Lots of posts on internet about flash drives ending up read-only in Linux after using on a windows or mac systme. Gather it is a problem with incorrectly ejecting or the ejection being poorly done.

Usually I can go back to the box and re-eject and all is well. This time even GParted and the resident fedora 21 Disk Utility programs did not even see the drive (which Was visible under "files").

Using disk utility on the "offending" machine, it seems there were many files that were truncated (due to some eject issue? Note the ejection was done "according to Hoyle" ); regardless the flash drive was still read-only. Howeverk, re-trying GParted, which now recognized the drive, the drive was unmounted checked. Some repair was necessary. Currently, I can read, write and copy within the drive.

However, the drive itself is still only read-only for all but the owner (which is not even root). I cannot copy any file to the flash drive. Chmod does nothing (no matter if root or other user tries). I suppose I should be satisfied for the access there is, but if anyone has any more suggestions, it would be great.

Thanks in advance for any info/interest

Hi all,

I have a device which has a Compact Flash card and a SSD. The file system is split so that everything except "/home" is stored on the compact flash card.

On the compact flash I am experiencing partition table corruption due to power loses when writing to the CF card.

One solution to this is to move everything onto the solid state drive, but as this is also flash memory - is the rish of corruption still the same as using the CF card?

Thanks in advance for any replies.

Hi,
I am trying to write to usb flash drive using a C program. I have just created some files in USB device and doing my tasks using fopen,fread and fwrite on those files. I was just wondering what is the standard data rate that can be achieved using fwrite() on a file in usb. Secondly what is better way of transferring data to USB flash drive using C Program? Obviously I am a newbie
