SOUNDCONVERTER

NAME

soundconverter − convert sound files to other formats

SYNOPSIS

soundconverter [options] [file...]

DESCRIPTION

soundconverter is a simple tool for converting sound files to other formats. It can work from the command line, but is really meant for interactive use in the GNOME environment.

OPTIONS

−h, −−help

Print out a usage summary.

−b, −−batch

Convert in batch mode, from command line, without a graphical user interface. You can use this from, say, shell scripts.

−m, −−mime−type arg

Set the output MIME type for batch mode. The default is audio/x-vorbis. Note that you probably want to set the output suffix as well.

−q, −−quiet

Be quiet. Don’t write normal output, only errors.

−s, −−suffix arg

Set the output filename suffix for batch mode. The default is .ogg. Note that the suffix does not affect the output MIME type.

−j, −−jobs arg

Force number of concurent conversions. Default is one per present CPU.

−t, −−tags

Show tags for input files instead of converting them. This indicates command line batch mode and disables the graphical user interface.
