I tried fre:ac but got an error from cddb when trying to connect to the database. Looking to rip to both FLAC and to Opus. Ideally with the latest codec updates.

Any recommendations?

The only issue I can see with abcde is that it hasn't been updated since 2019. Both FLAC and Opus have had updates as recent as 2023.

abcde uses whatever current codecs you have installed, it doesn’t do any of its own encoding

Red Book hasn't been updated since 1980, I think you'll be okay.

I've never had a problem with

abcde -o flac

I personally encountered no issues at all with it, for me this just feels like "finished" software

I used that (and decoded the acronym as I read it — a better cd encoder)
