NAME

       gjay - organizes music collections

SYNOPSIS

       gjay [-a file] [-c color] [-d] [-f] file] [-l length] [-p] [-s] [-u] [-v verbosity] [-P]
       gjay [-hV]

DESCRIPTION

       gjay  (Gtk+ DJ) analyzes and categorizes collections of MP3, OGG, FLAC and WAV music files
       so that interesting playlists can be generated. Each song is assigned characteristics (BPM
       and spectrum) and user-assigned attributes (rating and color). "Color" is just a handy way
       for a user to describe a song.

       gjay has both a user-visible interface and a background processing  component.  The  user-
       visible  component  is  used  to select the base music directory, set song attributes, and
       generate playlists. The background component (the daemon) analyzes songs.

       Song analysis can take a while. After the base music directory has been set and the daemon
       has started its analysis, it is possible to quit the user interface portion of the program
       and allow the daemon to continue in the background. GJay can be started in daemon mode  by
       passing  -d,  in  which  case it runs until song analysis is complete.  It's OK to kill or
       ctrl+c to quit a running daemon; it saves data as it goes along.

       You can create playlists from within the GJay or from the command line.  If you generate a
       playlist  from  the  command  line,  the  previous  session's playlist preferences for the
       importance of various attributes will be used.
