That's more or less what I'd like to do. The problem is, is there some
way to identify in script, which files are WMA lossless? If I can solve
that issue, I can easily enough find programs to do the transcoding
(actually I know I could use the WMP SDK to do figure it out in C#, but
I'm just wondering if somebody has already done it). Worst case I could
do it by hand, just by looking at which directories are the biggest.

The bigger issue to solve is the ability to take a directory of
mp3/wma/etc. and then re-rip from source to a defined format,
preserving all tags (e.g. custom tags that aren't in public
repositories such as Gracenote/AMG/MusicBrainz/etc.), and automatically
update Slimserver with the new filename. My problem is I have 500+ CDs
and about 80% or more are in lossy formats. I'd also like to be able to
select the format based on how I've already rated the tracks (e.g.
lossless for my favourites, and lossy for the stuff I care less
about).

Maybe I am the only person who's ever felt a need to do this sort of
thing :)

Anyway, thanks for responding.

Colin
