[help] flac to mp3

i need halp. if some computa wiz can find a solution i'd be
really happy.

i've got a really big album collection in flac. every single
album is in its own folder. now, i want to convert all
albums to mp3s for my ipod thing. but here's the problem: i
don't want the mp3s to be put in the same folder as the
flacs. i want some script or shit to do something like this
for every album:

Convert "C:\Flac\aphex twin - saw2" and then save the mp3s
to "C:\Mp3s\aphex twin - saw2"

you dig? now, how can i set this up automatically? creating
each and every folder manually, cutting, pasting etc is just
not going to happen.

i'm going to use lame to convert to mp3 btw.

Try Xilisoft audio converter.

Audacity does the trick for me... and it
has a lot of other features as well. Don't worry, it's
simpler than it looks..

how about you duplicate the flac folder, convert via any
coverter (winamp coverts in ths same folder of the original
folder) and then you delete the excess flacs via a simple
query.

space at the moment.

On OSX there is a program called FLACer.

audacity is great at what it's great at, but batch
conversion is not one of those things.

dbpoweramp is the standard for these kinds of things. it's
not free, but it can be if you look in the right places.

Remember converting a shit ton of wav files in audacity it
worked but I ended up with a hundred windows open
afterwards. it works... helps if your into that kinda mouse
clicking though

or you could write a batch file with all the necessary
command-line statements with the help of excel and a dump of
all the directories and its files.
