Re: [gentoo-user] Batch audio converter?

[dexters84]

Tweak below script a little and it should do the trick - should work the 
way it is - but I haven't tested it, it's a port of mine video encoder 
for multiple directories.

#!/bin/bash

new_files=$(find /path/to/input/ -iname "*.ogg")
inc=1
for x in $new_files
        do
            filename[$inc]=$x
            char_count=$(stat $filename[$inc]|wc -c)
            name_end=$(($char_count - 6))
            out_name[$inc]=$(echo $filename[$inc]|cut -c 10-$name_end)
            ffmpeg -i $filename -vcodec mp3 -ac 2 -ar 44100 -ab 256k 
/path/to/out/$out_name.mp3
            inc=$(($inc + 1))
        done
