new version of conversion audio - version 1.5

Two improvements

1) I estimate the conversion time for the user,
however this probably won't be accurate if you have a slow machine

2) I pop a window up to show the conversion so it won't be
such a mystery!


Note: the foreign translations had to be changed as well.

new version 1.7

new version 1.7

opens and converts more audio formats

such as flac and wma

Conversion time is approximate. I give the time needed
assuming the user has a fast machine.

You mention that pmusic can convert multiple wav files to mp3. How do you go about doing this using pmusic?

It's shinobar's ffconvert that will convert an entire folder

and gnac does as well (but it requires gstreamer I believe,
That's why Jemimah uses it in Saluki)


I wrote a script too

folder_convert-1.2.pet

I used ffconvert to convert a folder of wav files but I don't think ffconvert can do sub folders as well. Maybe I'm wrong?

I don't think my script does sub-folders as well. That
takes a real expert.

If you're serious about doing this, then use Jemimah's Saluki or
Fluppy. They use GNAC which is written by pros.

Please test.

I've finished converting my audio tools to gettext .

Folder convert will convert a folder of wav files to mp3 and delete the
wav files as an option.

Also there are four scripts inside conversion_audio (/usr/local/bin/):

conversion_fast --> converts flac to wav
conversion_ universal --> converts ogg and wma to wav
conversion_wav ---> convert mp3 to wav
conversion_mp3 ----> convert wav to mp3

I've finished testing and I've posted on first page.

I found that tahr pup doesn't have ffmpeg installed so I made a simple
change.

For people doing localization work, note that there are several scripts.

I'll check on my hard drive.

Is there any particular reason why it has to be v1.4?

Well, no, but it's what's worked well for a good time now. Thing is, I do a lot of installs and removals in an effort to help folks sort their software and @ some point I broke it. I can't put my finger on what's changed, but the new one wasn't able to resurrect 528's ability to convert wav2mp3.

If you have even a remote idea where I might look, that'd be great.

If not, it's not a hardship -- Really!

Thank you kindly Mr.White.

I've been look'n but haven't yet been able to find the reason.

Figuring I may not get to the bottom, I've already settled on other options.
