Sorry for the complete newbie question. I downloaded flac2MP3 and cannot
get it to run. How does one go about installing a Perl script?
Hi,
I really should add some Installation instructions!
I'm presuming you're on a Windows system as linux generally comes with
perl installed.
1. Download and install Perl from ActiveState [1]
2. Download and install flac [2]
3. Download and install lame (latest recommended build is 3.97b1 [3]
4. Download the latest version of flac2mp3 [4]
5. Extract flac2mp3 to a directory of your choice. I put mine in
c:\utils which is in my path.
6. Make sure flac.exe and lame.exe are in your path too, or edit
flac2mp3.pl and change the path to flac.exe and lame.exe.
That's it.
[1] http://activestate.com
[2] http://flac.sourceforge.net
[3] http://www.rarewares.org/mp3.html
[4] http://flac2mp3.robinbowes.com
Run the script as follows:
c:\> flac2mp3.pl flacdir mp3dir
Any further problems, please ask on the flac2mp3 mailing list as
described on my website and in the readme.txt.
Thanks,
R.
