> What's the best way to make my MP3s into OGG files? You can try a script I made (mp3conv.sh attached). It's a simple bash script, which produces an ogg file at quality 4 of the mp3... I use it all the time. It does however expect you to have all tage filled it, else they get inserted as blanks into the ogg, and in the comment tag it tells you the origional bitrate of the mp3 file (provioding it's not variable bitrate). Normally speaking I only convert mp3's from around 192kb/s to ogg quality 4 (around 128kb/s), and the quality isn't noticiable, regardless to popular beliefs. I does it too on_the_fly to save space. Just open the script, and edit this part: mp3info=/usr/bin/mp3info # Full path to mp3info mpg123=/usr/bin/mpg123 # Full path t0 mpg123 (Can also be mpg321) QUALITY=4 # 1-10 (4=100-128kb/s) Greetings Ralph -- http://axljab.homelinux.org/ "...the software said Win95 or better, so I installed Linux"
