wav to mp3 doesn't wok with soundconverter

Hi!
I have problems with soundconverter 1.4.1. I can't covert wav to mp3 files. I have installed gstreamer0.10-ugly and gstreamer0.10-ugly-plugins.

Edit:
I have checked Gnac and it also doesn't work. I get this Error with soundconverter:

Re: wav to mp3 doesn't wok with soundconverter

Soundconverter had some bug that made it not convert the files if the destination folder was something else. Try to use "same folder as the input file".

There are a zillion pages on the net how to do it. It's basically just ffmpeg -i input.wav output.mp3, set options as desired (man ffmpeg lists them), pretty much the same for lame (except I don't think you use -i). man lame.

Re: wav to mp3 doesn't wok with soundconverter

why not use lame?

lame -V 0 ${file}

No problem, I can use other programs instead of soundconverter
