Anyway I have a little script for batch converting flacs to mp3s as I am
rather space conscience while travelling and my mp3 player never liked
ogg. My Bash skills are near zero and what I have working is messy from
searching on the internet for a solution. Hopefully you can help me
modify it to use Sox rather than ffmpeg.

For this use case you can probably simply pipe flac into lame like this:

for f in *.flac;do flac -d -c "$f" | \
lame -b 320k -m j -q 0 - $(basename $f .flac).mp3;done

Or am I missing something?

Lorenzo.

 (And possibly make it so I can
simply call the command, rather than the more complex command I have to
use currently.)

To start the process I currently use this command in the terminal:
find  -type d -exec ~/bin/flac2mp3 "{}" \;

The previously working contents of flac2mp3 was:
#!/bin/bash
if [ -d "${1}" ] ; then
   cd "${1}" && for f in *.flac; do ffmpeg -i "$f" -f wav - | lame -b
320 -m j -q 0 - "${f%.flac}.mp3"; done
fi

I tried quickly to edit.

#!/bin/bash
if [ -d "${1}" ] ; then
   cd "${1}" && for f in *.flac; do sox "$f" -b 16 "${f%.flac}.wav" - |
lame -b 320 -m j -q 0 - "${f%.flac}.mp3"; done
fi

Seems to think the .wav is an incoming file for concatenation.

#!/bin/bash
if [ -d "${1}" ] ; then
   cd "${1}" && for f in *.flac; do sox "$f" -b 16 "${f%.flac}.wav" |
lame -b 320 -m j -q 0 - "${f%.flac}.mp3"; done
fi

Gives me all the wav files converted but doesn't then pass them onto the
lame section of the command.


I'm sure this must be really simple! (As much having it all in one
single script called by just executing the file!)


Regards, Dale.
