Sox works with the .ogg format fine but when trying to
convert to an .mp3 file I get the message:
/usr/local/sox-14.3.1/src/.libs/lt-sox FAIL formats: no handler for file extension `mp3'
I realize that the mp3 format is proprietary, but I have the
libmp3lame library installed which allows audacity to work with
mp3 files. Is there any way that sox can be configured with this
library to work with mp3?
Just for completeness, yes it can, but you have to recompile it [1]
(This is not really that hard e.g. on Debian).
But as already suggested you might be happier to use a specific sox
encoder such as lame. Also that way your script will be more portable.
