These tools convert my own FLAC audio repository into a MP3 directory (my mobile devices won't play FLAC). I call the walker script by cron every night, but of course you can trigger it whenever you want.
- FLAC tools
- LAME MP3 Encoder
- Perl Interpreter
Copy the scripts into your favourite directory and adjust the file paths in the SETUP section of flac2mp3 and flac2mp3_walker.
flac2mp3 <filename.flac> converts a FLAC file into a MP3 file in the same directory.
flac2mp3_walker walks through your FLAC directory and looks for the corresponding MP3 files in a separate directory tree. If the file is missing, flac2mp3 is called and the MP3 file (and if needed: the dir) is created.
