I have Ubuntu 9.04 and just installed Sound Converter. I am trying to convert a bunch of .ogg files to mp3 to play on my iPod and it's not working so well. In the Sound Converter options I have is set to convert to high quality mp3. I choose the folder that the files are in and after a moment (slow laptop) Sound Converter populates, I hit 'convert' and it shows that the conversion completes in two seconds. All that it did was create the new folder structure of artist/album but there is nothing in there. Not sure what I am missing. I used Sound Converter before and it worked fine.
I'm trying to use convert, I have installed the imagemagick. I use this line:convert *.jpg test.pdf but I'm only able to convert to pdf 1 single jpg file, not multiple files at once. When there's more than one file, I get the following error: Segmentation fault
I have a lot of .flac files downloaded from several sites. Most of them come with a .cue file, and the .jpg with the cover, etc. It seems it is the intention of the uploader that one rebuilds the original CDDA. However, if I had a stand-alone CD/DVD player with flac I would hardly see the point of converting the flac to cdda. Furthermore, I could even play the flacs with a software player although, in this case, the audio quality would not be so good due to the noise picked up by the signal from the PC digital circuits.
I try to play some music with my PlugComputer and I use an USB audio key. I have succefully installed linux-sound-base, alsa and mpg123. When I run mpg123 the sound loud during 5 seconds and stop. After the device is locked and nothing can be played without rebooting.
When I try to play a .mp3 file with mpg123, e.g. with this command: mpg123 someCoolTune.mpg I get these error messages.
[module.c:110] error: Failed to open module alsa: file not found [module.c:110] error: Failed to open module oss: file not found [module.c:110] error: Failed to open module esd: file not found [module.c:110] error: Failed to open module jack: file not found [module.c:110] error: Failed to open module pulse: file not found [module.c:110] error: Failed to open module nas: file not found

GUI audio players like Rhythmbox and Totem work just fine. I believe all of the audio on my computer depends on alsa. Another command that works just fine is aplay, aplay -q /usr/lib/openoffice/basis3.1/share/gallery/sounds/cow.wav
and aplay definitely uses alsa. My only other clue is, when I shut the machine down, one of the messages printed to the console during shutdown was something about /etc/default/timidity. Timidity is something that converts MIDI to WAV, and it may have nothing to do with my mpg123 problem. I am running Debian Lenny. How can I troubleshoot mpg123? Or would it be likely to help if I simply uninstall and reinstall mpg123? That might be easier than troubleshooting.
I have installed this program ok but I am new to command lines in terminal.
I want to convert some wav files to wma files. I have the wav files currently in a folder called Test to make it easy. So I have entered the following command line:
ajpearson@ajpearson-laptop:~/Desktop/pacpl-4.0.5$ pacpl --to wma home/ajpearson/Desktop/Test and the error message I get is:
error: the following is not a file or directory: home/ajpearson/Desktop/Test
It does not matter what directory I use I get the same error. I am sure the answer is obvious - but not t me.
How do you convert Open Office (ODT) documents to Text files? I have made a report using libre office. Now I wish to continue editing the document using lyx (latex front end). So the ODT file needs to be saved as some .tex file.
I don't see an option to do this in File menu (export/save as). So is there any other plugin to do this?
i have a large directory of .bsp files that i would like to convert .bz2 archives. I've been searching for some time and all i can find is the obvious compress multiple files into one large archive. If anyone knows how to convert each file individually, while retaining the original file name (testmap.bsp would be archived as testmap.bsp.bz2)

I'm having trouble finding information on using gstreamer to convert videos from the command line. I've seen examples to convert audio and know it's possible to convert video (Thoggen does this with gstreamer) but what would the command be to execute this? I assume it will use gst-launch but there are so many following switches that it gets confusing. I'm interested in converting a DVD to OGG (as Thoggen does). I ask this because Thoggen:
1) Doesn't remember my preferences (quality, picture size etc.) 2) Gives me a huge preview window that I do not need (while it is encoding)
I have a colour PDF file, and I'm going to print it out and then photocopy it in black and white. I'd like to know what it's like in B&W before photocopying it. Is it possible to 'greyscale' a PDF on the command line using free software? I'm using Ubuntu 9.10.
I've spent a lot of time googling on this one, but could not really find anything that would convert HTML to images. Does anyone know if there are some command line tools that can do this? I need to convert simple HTML documents to images to be attached to Powerpoint presentations. Could firefox gecko be tapped into to do this without a GUI?
I thought this would only merit a google. but all methods seem overtly complicated. I have a bunch of folders filled with .doc files and I need them to convert to plain .txt files. Is there a program I can download from the repositories, or a command I can use to do this?
I have a file (.tgz) which is meant to be simply copied to a floppy disc. I don't have a floppy disc, so I would like to convert the file to a .img file, so that it looks like a floppy disc but is on my hard drive. How do I do this? I have looked quite a lot. Surely there is some application that does it easily. This is for installation of Basic Linux, which comes on two floppy discs with ms-dos file systems.
