I have a fairly large music collection, which is 9.9 GB in size. It’s mainly made up of MP3 files, with some OGG Vorbis files and a handful of WAV and WMA files. I would like to convert the entire library to AAC (or a better format, if there is one) in order to reduce the size of my collection by a considerable amount.
My library is organised using this folder structure:
~/Music/{Artist}/{Album}/{Track}
Can anyone recommend a GUI tool or shellscript which would recursively convert the files, map across the metadata, and dump the files into a different folder with the same directory structure?
EDIT: I have used a script to convert everything to Opus. Problem solved, just working out the kinks now.
Doesn’t support it directly, I can’t add opus files to the iTunes library, so I had to use VLC for them, but it’s not designed to be a music player for the iPhone and the music stops after playing a couple of songs with the screen off
