Bug Description

If the CDDB listing for a CD gives a long trackname, asunder

(a) Creates a WAV file with the name "nn - <track name truncated to 104 characters"

(b) Fails to convert the WAV file to MP3, I suspect because it is looking for a non-truncated filename.

For example,

08 - Six Sinfonias on Ovid's Metamorphoses No. 5 in A major Metamorphosis of Lycian Peasants into Frogs - IV.

and

09 - Six Sinfonias on Ovid's Metamorphoses No. 6 in D major The Petrification of Phineus and His Friends - I

should actually be

08 - Six Sinfonias on Ovid's Metamorphoses No. 5 in A major Metamorphosis of Lycian Peasants into Frogs - IV. Finale: Adagio - vivace ma moderato.wav

and

09 - Six Sinfonias on Ovid's Metamorphoses No. 6 in D major The Petrification of Phineus and His Friends - I. Andante più tosto Allegretto.wav

In both cases the file can be converted to MP3 individually (so the contents are OK) and can be renamed properly by hand (so it's not an OS/FS restriction on filename length).
