RE: Audio conversion CFX tag, cfc, etc?
I'd be very surprised if you found a tag/cfc to do that. You'll most likely have to roll your own using whatever command line tool you've found. But by all means... if I'm wrong... do share :-) What command line utility did you find? Windows? Linux? The only thing I've seen that was remotely related was just a tag to read the ID3 tags of mp3s (maybe some other formats too), file size, track lengths, titles, artists, etc... it was called CFX_AudioInfo. It's not what you are looking for but may come in handy with what you are doing. ..:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.

I've been looking for a CFX or CFC tag that can take in an audio file in various formats (the more the better) and convert to MP3. I've found some command-line tools that can do conversions and I've considered using CFEXECUTE to call that but I'm curious if anyone has some java code in a CFC wrapper or if there's a good CFX tag out there to do this type of thing more elegantly than CFEXECUTE to a command-line program. All we really need to be able to control is the input file, the output path and the bitrate of the MP3. If the tag returns a final file size or something like that, that would be an added bonus.

RE: Audio conversion CFX tag, cfc, etc?
Yeah, the ID3 stuff can be read by java too, that's why I was wondering if someone made a cfc wrapper that used a java library to do the conversion. The command line program I found is at http://www.audconv.com/ All I did was search for command line audio converter on google and that returned quite a few results. I'm not sure what kind of speed these work at and how well they work, but I'm going to do some testing to see. The software only costs like $20 so if it works it would be pretty neat. I'm not sure if it would be something you'd want a web request waiting on, but it could always be put in a queue and triggered as a scheduled task (either by CF or by a windows scheduled task). Just fyi, I was searching for something similar to convert video files to flv and found a couple of programs that claim to do it. I'm not sure how flexible or reliable they are since video settings get a little more complicated than audio, but I'm definitely going to try it out.

I dont think it has any kind of command line interface but I use Riva for converting videos to FLV's. ..:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.
