## AUR
|

Thanks to kbabioch, this script has also been packaged in the [AUR](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/aaxtomp3-git/). Note that you will still need to extract your activation bytes before use.

## Usage
|
||||
## Usage(s)
|
||||
```
|
||||
bash AAXtoMP3 <AUTHCODE> {INPUT_FILES}
|
||||
bash AAXtoMP3 [--flac] [--single] [AUTHCODE] <AAX INPUT_FILES>
|
||||
bash AAXtoM4A [AUTHCODE] <AAX INPUT_FILES>
|
||||
bash AAXtoM4B [AUTHCODE] <AAX INPUT_FILES>
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
* AUTHCODE: **your** Audible auth code (it won't correctly decode otherwise) (required)
|
||||
* Everything else is considered an input file, useful for batching!
|
||||
|
||||
You can also convert the output to FLAC encoding instead of MP3 by doing the following *in order*:
|
||||
```
|
||||
bash AAXtoMP3 --flac <AUTHCODE> {INPUT_FILES}
|
||||
MP3 Encoding
|
||||
- Produces 1 or more mp3 files for the AAX title. If you desire a single file use the --single option
|
||||
- If you want a mp3 file per chapter do not use the -single option. Note a m3u playlist file will also
|
||||
be created in this instance.
|
||||
- If you desire flac encoding. use the --flac option. It's a bit faster but also a bit less compatible.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
Note that FLAC encoding is typically a little faster, at the cost of compatibility with some players.
|
||||
M4A Encoding
|
||||
|
||||
If you wish to convert to a single file you can add --single to the input. This will prevent chaptered content from being extracted.
|
||||
```
|
||||
M4B Encoding

Additionally, if you have a .authcode file available in the current working directory, it will read the first line of

Defaults
|
||||
- If you have a .authcode file available in the current working directory, it will read the first line of
|
||||
that line and treat it like your auth_code. When you do this you do not need to specify an AUTHCODE input.
|
||||
|
||||
Here is the full usage (NOTE: Order matters!)
|
||||
```
|
||||
bash AAXtoMP3 [--flac] [--single] AUTHCODE {FILES}
