I am using this script to convert radio programmes downloaded with 'get-iplayer' from '*.m4a' to '*.mp3', and it works very well.
for i in *.m4a; do faad "$i" x=`echo "$i"|sed -e 's/.m4a/.wav/'` y=`echo "$i"|sed -e 's/.m4a/.mp3/'` lame -h -b 192 "$x" "$y" rm -f "$x" done; But, there is a problem. They come in this format - '15_Minute_Drama_-_AM_Homes_-_This_Book_Will_Save_Your_Life_Episode_5_b00jdlb8_default.m4a' How can I lose the '_b00jdlb8_default' section please? It is always in this format but with different letters and numbers in the section before 'default'. I have quite a few programmes already converted so I also need to be able to use this ability on them too. I would welcome another script that could perform this please?
