xchm 1.312020-02-19: mutagen-py27-1.43.0-1 (Module to handle audio metadata)
Mutagen is a Python module to handle audio metadata. It supports ASF, FLAC,
M4A, Monkey's Audio, MP3, Musepack, Ogg FLAC, Ogg Speex, Ogg Theora, Ogg
Vorbis, True Audio, WavPack and OptimFROG audio files. All versions of
ID3v2 are supported, and all standard ID3v2.4 frames are parsed. It can
read Xing headers to accurately calculate the bitrate and length of MP3s.
ID3 and APEv2 tags can be edited regardless of audio format. It can also
manipulate Ogg streams on an individual packet/page level.

libgpg-error 1.372020-02-16: flac-1.3.3-1 (Free lossless audio codec)
FLAC stands for Free Lossless Audio Codec. Grossly oversimplified, FLAC
is similar to MP3, but lossless. The FLAC project consists of:
* The stream format
In the libflacX packages:
* libFLAC, a library encoders and decoders, and a metadata interface
* libFLAC++, an object wrapper around libFLAC
In the flac package:
* flac, a CLI wrapper around libFLAC to encode/decode .flac files
* metaflac, a command-line metadata editor for .flac files
In the flac-xmms package:
* Input plugin for XMMS
