nice! thanks a lot and keep up the good work!

For some reason this isn't working for me. I'm trying "audioconvert --all=copy --flac=ogg Music ogg" but the only thing that happens is the first folder in my music library is created in the ogg folder (e.g. Music/3 Doors Down/Away From the Sun/ creates the folder ogg/3 Doors Down/Away From the Sun) and it is empty. The only output is

Found config: /home/bslackr/.config/audioconvert/config.rc
convert (direct):
  from: /mnt/data/Music/3 Doors Down/Away From the Sun/01. When I'm Gone.flac
    to: /mnt/data/ogg/3 Doors Down/Away From the Sun/01. When I'm Gone.ogg

And then it just does nothing more. No file is converted.

Do you have oggenc installed?

That was the problem. I normally read the stuff in the optdepends, guess it slipped past me this time. Thanks. Now I run into another problem. It worked for the first few songs, but now I'm getting an "Error: input file is not a supported format" even though the file is a flac.

Edit: I just tried converting it manually with oggenc. If I try to use the flac file directly, it gives me that error. If I use flac to decode the file, and pipe that to oggenc it works

flac -d -c test.flac | oggenc - -o test.ogg
--works

oggenc test.flac -o test.ogg
--doesn't work

Don't know if that helps you or not

Awesome, I was about to write something like this myself. I'll try it out on my next run. Thanks a lot!

Some google searching indicates, that this may be a flac file with id3v2 tags. Not sure how many you have of those, but I probably can add a workaround for that:

a. Either force a indirect conversion (flac->wav->ogg),
b. try a direct conversion and see if it works, if not try indirect
c. check for idv3 tag for flac files and use indirect if found.

bslackr · 2012-03-29 19:46:21

That was the issue. I stripped the file of its id3v2 tag and it converted properly. I'm not sure how many of those I have either, but if you could provide a workaround that would be awesome. I'll probably just batch remove the id3 tags, but this would be useful in the future. B or C would probably be better speedwise.

I've implemented C. Should be available sometime tonight or tomorrow.

Wow, that was fast. Thanks a lot!

0.4.1 is out now. Comes with parallel execution and fixes for the above mentioned issues.

bslackr · 2012-03-30 19:41:32

Just tried this and I get a segfault

Info: Found config /home/bslackr/.config/audioconvert/config.rc
Info: found flac in /usr/bin/flac
Info: found oggenc in /usr/bin/oggenc
[1]    3176 segmentation fault  audioconvert --all=copy --flac=ogg Music ogg

Oops...! Uploaded a new version. Should be fixed now.

bslackr · 2012-03-30 20:16:53

Looks like it's working good now, the id3's are being detected and converted properly and no seg faults. Very useful program, thanks again,

0.4.3 is out a with small bug fix regarding the copy task not overwriting files when it really needs to, and limited opus support (no metadata transfer yet, waiting for taglib to support it)

GogglesGuy · 2014-08-01 18:31:55

0.4.4 is out. Drops FOX-1.6 and compiles with the latest fox-devel package in community.
