About:
Libmp3splt is a versatile command-line utility and library designed for precise audio splitting without re-encoding. It supports MP3, Ogg Vorbis, and FLAC formats, offering frame-accurate cuts for seamless audio editing. Its core value lies in fast, lossless audio segmentation for podcasters, DJs, and music archivists.

Key Features:

Lossless, frame-accurate splitting for MP3, Ogg, and FLAC
Support for automatic silence detection to split tracks
Ability to process files in batch mode
Provides both a command-line interface and a developer library

Use Cases:

Splitting long podcast or live recordings into individual episodes or tracks
Extracting specific segments from a large audio file
Archiving vinyl rips by automatically detecting and separating silent gaps between songs

Alternatives:

ffmpeg – A much broader multimedia toolkit that can also split audio, but is less specialized for this specific task.
sox – A powerful 'Swiss Army knife' for audio manipulation, but its splitting capabilities are not as feature-rich for this specific use case.
