Ubuntu :: Converting To MP3 With Lame Or FFMPEG?
May 31, 2011Is there a difference in quality between converting an audio file (e.g. *.wav) to MP3 using LAME or FFMPEG? Or do they produce the same results?

View 8 RepliesWhen using libmp3lame with ffmpeg is there a way to use lame options?
Code:
ffmpeg -i foo -acodec libmp3lame foo.mp3
For example:- --vbr-new, --abr <bitrate>, -V (n) and -q <arg>
I think it is possible to pipe ffmpeg to lame then use the options.But is it possible to do it without a pipe.
Code:
ffmpeg -i foo -f wav - | lame --vbr-new -V 4 - foo.mp3
i wanted to install ffmpeg with lame mp3 support.its procedure is as follows:
cd /usr/local/src/ffmpeg/
./configure -enable-libmp3lame -enable-libogg -enable-libvorbis
make && make install
but i have not passed -enable-libmp3lame during installing to ./configure so mp3lame support is not available.how can i modify existing installation to install libmp3
I bought un-managed VPS server for host a video sharing script. Server details

And that video sharing script needs "FFmpeg,Flvtool2,Libogg + Libvorbis,LAME MP3 Encoder" I searched google,forums,Articles. But i couldn't be able to find a way to install them on Centos
I've been going bonkers trying to get an m4b audiobook converted to mp3. I've tried putting ffmpeg -i <infile.m4b> -acodec libmp3lame -ar 22050 <outfile.mp3> into terminal where "infile" is the filename I want converted and "outfile" is the new filename, but I keep getting the error message "bash: syntax error near unexpected token 'newline'"
What am I doing wrong?! I have tried sound converter, but it hates me and crashes.VLC told me "It seems your FFMPEG (libavcodec) installation lacks the following encoder: MPEG Audio layer 1/2/3."
I've seen posts with similar titles on these forums, but I know nothing about the plethora of codes out there and all those thread seem to be way over my head. I've installed ffmpeg (an unrestricted version) but I can't convert m4a audio files to mp3 audio files. I installed a package called 'libavcodec52' from synaptic because it came up in the search results for 'm4a' and its description said something about m4a and ffmpeg but still no luck..

I'm having issues while converting 192kbps mp3 using ffmpeg. The right channel somehow gets damaged. I'm using winff and I'm facing this problem only when using mp3 files having bit rate of 192 kbps . i've attached the screenshots of the file . Should i report a bug??

Ok, so I find myself ripping audio CDs frequently, which I then lame to mp3's to put on my media player. I usually define the --ta and --tl (artist and album) ID3 tags and batch encode each album, but don't bother with the track tags as I'd have to do each one seperately.
So, I'm working on a script to do all this for me, extracting info from 'pwd' etc. to fill in the blanks for --ta, --tl and --tt (track name). All is working well, except that I can't get sed to pass on the "" character to lame to escape spaces.
Here's what I've got so far: (trouble spot is bolded - no need to pay attention to the rest of it)
Code:
All this does is pass a 'space' on to lame, which it takes as an invalid argument.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am wanting to reduce around 9.9gigs of music to 8gigs to fit on my phone. I have done some snooping and noticed a program called Lame. I also noticed a code:
for x in [ `ls -1 *.mp3` ]; do lame --preset 32 $x new32-${x}; done
I was wondering if someone would be able to explain the code and how I go about converting the bitrate to 96?
My new Wheezy install is looking pretty good and I'd like to copy some of my CDs to my harddrive. I'd like them in mp3 format, but unlike other distros, i don't seem to be able to find Lame, which is needed. I've searched for answers, but not come up with anything that works, yet. I know this question is probably asked a lot, but can anyone help me with this one? I have contrib and non-free enabled in my /etc/apt/sources.list.

A few days ago I setup a new slice, and now I want to use it to convert ULAW (μ-law) WAV files into MP3's.
If I would only install LAME this would give me an 'Unsupported data format: 0x0007'. Because LAME doesn't support ulaw encoded wav's only Linear PCM's.
I have read that one can use the Libsndfile and use it with LAME --fileio=libsndfile (or something like that) when 'MAKE'-ing Lame. In this case because of the additional encoding library sndfile Lame can read and encode the ulaw into mp3.
I have also read another solution is to first convert the ulaw-wav into a pcm-wav with sox, and afterwards convert the output into an mp3 with lame. This seems to be a lot of extra system resources.
I am looking for a hands on tutorial howto wget, compile, install and run LAME with Libsndfile on Ubuntu Lucid (commandline only) so I can encode incoming ulaw files into mp3's?
Where can I download a copy of gstreamer0.10-lame plug-in? I looked in Synaptic Package Manager but did not see it listed.
View 2 Replies View Relatedhow to use lame to convert wav files to mp3. When using K3B sometime later, I noticed that mp3 was now listed as an option for the formats I could rip CD tracks in. I'm pretty sure it was never in the list before, and it says not just "mp3" but "mp3 (lame)" so it is obvious that my installing lame made mp3 an option in this list.The thing is, it doesn't work. I've tried burning in mp3 now, and every time, some error prevents it. The debugging output says:
Quote:
System

K3b Version: 1.0.5
KDE Version: 3.5.10

and the error message, showing the command that failed, is shown in this screenshot I attached. (It wouldn't let me copy the text to the clipboard.)Any idea why it doesn't work? If I could rip tracks as MP3 in K3B, I could rip them all at once, and it would be much faster than using the lame command on each file in a terminal window.
First I've compiled and installed lame and xvid with --prefix=/usr.
Then I've compiled and install mplayer with --prefix=/usr.
Checking for libmp3lame ... yes (in FFmpeg: yes)
Checking for Xvid ... yes
mencoder -ovc help shows xvid (it works) but no mp3lame at all. And mplayer uses ffmpeg [ffmp3float], which extremely distors tracks. I'm sure it's not alsa, because music played online sounds normal.
prompt$sox mix2.wav soundstrack.mp3 sox FAIL formats: can't open output file `soundstrack.mp3': SoX was compiled without MP3 encoding support so i have seen a lot of other posts about this issue but none had an answer for me. i've run sox on numerous other mac and linux machines and never had a problem with .mp3 stuff provided i have lame and libmad installed. but on my current machine (ubunut 10.10) i can't seem to get sox to do anything with .mp3 despite having lame installed, reinstalling sox, etc.
