cbr2cbz

CBR to CBZ conversion tool for GNU/Linux

Requirements

  • A GNU/Linux distro (sorry, no Windows support)
  • The non-free package unrar-nonfree (check unrar-nonfree)
  • The free package zip. Install it with sudo apt-get install zip.
  • Python (checked with Python 2.7 and Python 3.3)

Usage

To convert a single CBR file use this (the script can't handle filenames with spaces):

./cbr2cbz.py <cbr_filename_without_spaces>

To convert an entire directory with CBR files in it use:

cbrfolder2cbz.py <directory>

The script will put CBZ files in the same directory. Please remember that this tool don't support filenames with spaces. In case you need to rename many files check https://packages.debian.org/wheezy/pyrenamer

Introduction

CBR files use RAR format, a non-free format. If you use a GPL comics reader in your tablet it's likely it will have problems when reading CBR files. Convert them to CBZ with this script.
