Re: program to convurt *.ogg files to *.mp3 files?

2011-11-26 Thread Paul Erkens
Indeed. Amadeus pro does it well. You can even retain art work and meta data in 
your files if you want that, or strip it altogether. You can also set options 
for the destination files. I use it all the time for stuff I buy in itunes, and 
that I need to be in mp3 format for an old player that I have. Here are hints 
to get you started. I'm aware that you may not already have amadeus pro. But if 
you do, this hopefully helps you get going with file conversion in amadeus pro, 
you or other listers.

1. Open the batch converter. You can find it in the menus, but it is quicker to 
just hit command shift n for new batch converter. After having set all 
parameters for your conversion, you can even save them for later usage if you 
need them again. If you exit the batch converter after having made one or more 
changes to the defaults, you will be asked if you want to save or not. So fire 
up amadeus pro and hit command shift n.

2. You are now in a 4 tab dialog. The tab sheet names are format, actions, meta 
data and art work. If you don't care about meta data and art work, leave them 
alone. That's okay. For simple batch conversion, don't worry about the actions 
sheet either. You will only need this if you want to do audio editing on the 
fly while converting, so only concentrate on the formats tab. Move your vo 
cursor to formats and press there, vo space, to make sure you are in that sheet 
of the dialog.
3. You must first set all options, and only then you select the files to 
convert. If you do it the other way round, then conversion will happen with 
default settings, because conversion starts immediately after having selected 
your files. So, look at the format sheet.
The first thing to set is your destination file format, in your case mp3. That 
is a simple combo box, or pop up button, so hit vo space on it, select mp3 
instead of same as original, and hit vo space again. Using the settings 
button,you can set mp3 options if you wish, but I think that will be self 
explanatory there if you know what you want to achieve in mp3. Set your 
destination. What I usually do is leave this setting at its default, being same 
as original location, but that happens to suit my needs. You can easily point 
to an empty destination directory other than the source from this pop up menu. 
So far so good.
4. Now skip the advanced options for now, being change name to, filter, 
recurse, and regular expression. This is what you don't need for your basic 
conversions.
5. If you choose to retain the folder hierarchy, then all subdirectories from 
the source will be recreated at the destination location. Otherwise, all 
destination files end up in the same folder that you set earlier. If you have 
hundreds of files, sorted for example in directories for artist and album, 
having this on will probably help you keep the destination files sorted as you 
had them in the source folders. Please remember however, that if you want your 
directory structure recreated at the destination, then the recurse option that 
I mentioned above should be on.
6. Finally, choose your files. Go to the drag files item on the screen and 
click there. Simply hitting vo space won't work though. Amadeus pro wants a 
mouse click, not a voiceover default action. So, what you do is, you route the 
mouse here with command vo f5, and then have voiceover click that spot with the 
mouse, using vo shift space. A new file selection dialog opens.
7. Go to the file list and choose. You can do this in a number of ways, but if 
you only need 1 folder of files converted, then it's easiest to move to the 
folder the files are in, open this folder with command down arrow, remember 
that you are still inside the file selection dialog in amadeus pro, and then 
select all files you need. I do it with shift arrows.
8. Now if you move away from the file table to the open button and hit it, 
conversion will start. The fan may spin more than usual, and you will see it 
when conversion is done.
Hth,
Paul.

Try Amadeus pro can grab it as a batch and then convert.  There are others I'm 
sure.  But that's better than manually doing it with something like Audio 
Highjack.

You could also bring them into iTunes and then convert them to mp3. 
Haven't tried this for a while but it used to work.
