I think adding transcoding to getiplayer is probably unwise because everyone has their preferred transcode options (e.g. like output bitrate, and even the 'libmp3lame' codec name changes between ffmpeg builds) and the number of options you'd have to add to satisfy even a few users is going to get out of hand! I believe the --command option you specified was created for this very purpose.
Also, you can use the below command instead the one you suggested and it will limit the conversion to only those files ending in '.aac'. -c 'ffmpeg -i "<dir>/<fileprefix>.aac" -vn -acodec libmp3lame -ac 2 -ab 128k -y "<dir>/<fileprefix>.mp3"' See: http://linuxcentre.net/getiplayer/documentation#Substitution%20Parameters _______________________________________________ get_iplayer mailing list [email protected] http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/get_iplayer
