Try this - sudo port install ffmpeg +lame +extvorbis +faac +faad +xvid +x264 Now you can translate like this ffmpeg -i ./imaprofessional.wav -y -acodec libmp3lame -ab 128k ./b.mp3 2&>/dev/null which says take the input file "imaprofessional.wav" overwrite output files (-y) use audio codec libmp3lame (-acodec) with an audio bitrate of 128K (-ab) with file ./b.mp3 as output - please put all of the chatter on stderr onto /dev/null 8) ---------------------------------- Chris Janton - face at CentosPrime dot COM Netminder for Opus1.COM _______________________________________________ macports-users mailing list macports-users@lists.macosforge.org http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/macports-users
