Software :: Converting M4b To Mp3 With Ffmpeg And VLC?
Aug 28, 2010
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??
I would like to make a script for converting music using ffmpeg. I have a lot of music that I would like to convert to a different format and I don't want to have to do it manually each time. At the moment, I am using this command to convert the music:
ATM I'm trying to use mencoder and am not impressed with it telling me it can't find the file I'm trying to convert. Especially when it WAS perfectly able to fid the file before my computer had an unfortunate crash, which didn't even affect the file in question.
I try to convert a doc file to a pdf file with the linux bash. I tried different ways like jodconverter, ghostscript, postscript and so on, but all didn't work as espected. Additionally I can say that I have only the bash.
I'm trying to put a background on a DVD through DeVeDe, Image i want to use is jpg and it only accepts png, I do prefer to work from terminal i can learn and become more comfortable with it, But a GUI would be good too

I was looking for something to convert my old WMA music files (left over from before I switched to Linux permanently) to a Linux format. After posting a question about it, I found a program called dir2ogg in my apt repositories. It works smoothly; you use it by typing dir2ogg [filename] in a terminal window.
My pc cannot play smoothly 1080p. Instead of pre converting it to 720p, and then playing that, is it possible to do so on the fly and save the result to a file? This would save time in waiting.
I'm currently running ffmpeg from a windows machine and realized it's rather redundant as I could be running it from the Debian (headless server) machine instead. What I'm trying to achieve is to get ffmpeg running as a background job...
Effectively, as far as I've gathered, this should be enough:
But it's not working - when I run the command from terminal to check it, it works fine... but when I try to run it as a background job it creates the job but no output is generated. According to posts around the web, other people have been successful at running background jobs like this for transcoding static files.Should it be done differently or is this an issue with ffmpeg itself?
I would like to start working with webm (On2 vp8 codec) with ffmpeg.Are there any packages available for ffmpeg that have the necessary support for creating .webm videos? But I still unable to successfully encode to webm with ffmpeg.Am I missing anything obvious?I want to avoid compiling a new ffmpeg as I am currently doing commercial video work and don't want to risk "breaking" my machine.
I'm trying to convert a .MTS video file to .mov, and I need to use ffmpeg, because I want it to be scriptable.I managed to convert the file to .avi using this command:Code:ffmpeg -i INPUT.MTS -vcodec libxvid -b 18000k -acodec libmp3lame -deinterlace -ab 192k -s 1280x720 -r 50 OUTPUT.avi
The problem is i unable to stream this kuraiamr_nb.mov file at my streaming server. when i play this file in quicktime player its stating that this is a unsupported media type.
I am looking for an option to convert .vob file to mp4 format. Command "ffmpeg -i S.vob x.mp4" is giving error message "[libfaac @ 01cac110] Unable to load libfaac.dll". I tried to convert in other formats like .avi with the same command and got success. Conversion is decreasing the quality like hell. Though size of the file after conversion is as big as original then why this bad quality. Some where I have read if I will not specify any argument it will keep the quality same but here it is not happening. Not sure why....
after that if i call ffmpeg I will obtain this error ffmpeg: error while loading shared libraries: libavdevice.so.52: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
I've got a batch of MOV format videos, I want to convert them to the MP4 format (I've heard these two are similar, and MP4 is more plain form of MOV?). Can I do this in Fedora? I've also heard that converting from MOV is generally difficult.
converting pdf (or ps) files from RGB colorspace to CMYK colorspace, so I can have file needed in industrial printing companies? I've looked into covert - it seems to be only for pictures and ImageMagick
I have previously been using VirtualBox on an Ubuntu installation, but have now switched to openSUSE 11.4. I have a .vdi file that I want to continue using and would like to know if it is possible to import this to the (preferred?) hypervisor which appears in the openSUSE System menu, which I assume is XEN.
I have spend the entire weekend trying to convert a mkv file with a DTS audio track to an AC3 audio track. I wrote a small article on it on my website with plenty of links and suggestions. I used applications like TVersity, PS3 Media Server, mkvdts2ac3 script, and avidemux. I just hope i can save someone's weekend with this. Anyway here is the link:
