Below is a little script that was provided to me by 'bones' earlier this year.
I've been using it and have't had any problems. Hope this helps.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
For converting mp3 to wav, here is some little script. (it's an early one so
don't judge me by it - it's patchwork from others scripts, but it did it for
me)
You need mpg123 and sox installed (which I guess is pretty much standard).
Put it into a text file and make it executable with 'chmod u+x mp32wav' and
move it into /usr/bin or something in your PATH.
If you start the script with "mp32wav *.mp3" in a folder with mp3s or from the
Nautilus script folder) it creates a subfolder "wav" and converts all mp3
into wav files with the same name exept '.mp3' becomes '.wav'
---------------
#!/bin/bash
# mp32wav
mp3file="$*"
mkdir wav
for file in "$@" ; do
#echo "$file"
wavfile=`echo "$file" | sed s/\\.mp3/.wav/`
printf "%-50s %-50s\n" "$file" "--> $wavfile"
# to encode wav-->mp3
#lame -h "$file" "$mp3file"
# to encode mp3-->wav
mpg123 -b 10000 -s "$file" | sox -t raw -r 44100 -s -w -c2 -
"wav/$wavfile"
done
