Re: [gentoo-user] Batch audio converter?

Tweak below script a little and it should do the trick - should work the 
way it is - but I haven't tested it, it's a port of mine video encoder 
for multiple directories.


#!/bin/bash

new_files=$(find /path/to/input/ -iname *.ogg)
inc=1
for x in $new_files
   do
   filename[$inc]=$x
   char_count=$(stat $filename[$inc]|wc -c)
   name_end=$(($char_count - 6))
   out_name[$inc]=$(echo $filename[$inc]|cut -c 10-$name_end)
   ffmpeg -i $filename -vcodec mp3 -ac 2 -ar 44100 -ab 256k 
/path/to/out/$out_name.mp3

   inc=$(($inc + 1))
   done

Hi,
   I've got about 200GB of OGG and FLAC files on my local machine. My
son bought an iPod and wants me to do a batch conversion to mp3. Can
anyone recommend something in portage that can do this in more or less
a single step? Directory hierarchy is basically
band/album/audio_files.

   Extra points I suppose if it can write the output to a different
machine across the network - Windows XP or Gentoo - so that I don't
have to deal with storage issues in this end.

Thanks,
Mark

There was a bug in my pervious script

new_files=$(find /path/to/input/ -iname *.ogg)

for x in $new_files
  do
  filename[$inc]=$x
  char_count=$(stat $filename[$inc]|wc -c)
  name_end=$(($char_count - 6))
  out_name[$inc]=$(*stat* $filename[$inc]|cut -c 10-$name_end)
  ffmpeg -i $filename -vcodec mp3 -ac 2 -ar 44100 -ab 256k 
/path/to/out/$out_name.mp3

Not in portage, but I am author of sneetchalizer. Will do what you need plus

I do this the easy way, with an amarok plugin - transkode, it's in 
portage

Configure it to transcode on demand when transferring to the media 
player, then drag mp3s as normal. Transkode will re-encode them on the 
fly.

Pros: quick, easy, no hassle
Cons: slower than simply moving an mp3, has to be done each time you 
transfer a track to the player, encoding is not of the best quality 
(but players don't render the best quality sound either so this doesn't 
bother me at all)

soundkonverter (http://www.kde-apps.org/content/show.php?content=29024) is a 
nice gui tool for that task. I've got it from the sabayon overlay.

Here is a shorter one:

for i in `ls *.ogg | sed -e 's/.ogg//'`; do echo Converting $i.ogg to $i.mp3; ogg123 -d wav -f - $i.ogg | lame- 
$i.mp3; done
