I don't know the options to faad or lame well enough to
comment directly, but I use these 2 scripts, and they work well.
Maybe something will present itself.
----script-1----
#!/bin/sh
### cvt_faad.sh ###
FAAD=/usr/bin/faad
for M4A in $(ls *.m4a) ; do
faad $M4A
done
----script-2----
#!/bin/sh
### cvt_faad.sh ###
FAAD=/usr/bin/faad
for WAV in $(ls *.wav) ; do
MP3=`basename $WAV .wav`
MP3="${MP3}.mp3"
CMD="lame -h -b 192 ${WAV} ${MP3}"
echo "${CMD} ..."
$CMD
done
ok, thanks Paul! your scripts don't yeild hissy files.
I added the -h and -b 192 option to lame one at a time, and the both,
but stll get hissy output from my script.
i wonder if this can be blamed on the use of a pipe? that's beyond me.
I always thought pipes ment cleverness and where as to linux as apple
pie is to the USA. shall i loose faith in ye ole pipe?
