Thread: Convert entire MP3 library to FLAC / OGG?


what's easiest way convert mp3's in library folder non-proprietary format flac or ogg format?

1 can search recursively , save converted files in same folders originals.

converting mp3 flac doesn't make sense, since mp3 lossy , flac lossless, can conversions pacpl (perl audio converter), available in ubuntu repos.

after installing pacpl...
code:
sudo apt-get install pacpl
... switch directory want convert (you'll need take spaces out of directory names that)...
code:
cd music
and run following, or substitute formats else (last 1 converting, first format want convert to...
code:
pacpl -t ogg -r *.mp3
this use convert flac mp3 , set bitrate @ 192kbps...
code:
pacpl -t mp3 --bitrate 192 -r *.flac
btw, recommend installing lame (mp3 encoder) , removing twolame.
