I agree that AAC is a higher quality format, but the poor quality of MP3 files is irrelevant to me as I only listen to speech radio and I reduce the quality even further to keep the files small. I find that 56kbits/s at 22,050Hz stereo is fine for listening on my MP3 player. So I have been looking for an easy way to convert from AAC to MP3.
I have found a GUI front end for FFMPEG called WinFF which works very well for me (Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit). It allows you to select a group of files in the GUI and then uses FFMPEG to perform the conversion. I haven't tested this, but it also claims to work for Windows 95, 98 , ME, NT, XP, VISTA, and Debian, Ubuntu, Redhat based GNU/Linux distributions. It appears to be completely free - I can't find any way of making a donation. The web-site is: http://winff.org/html_new/ _______________________________________________ get_iplayer mailing list [email protected] http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/get_iplayer
