Platform: Mac OS X, Panther:

We used to use Media Cleaner to convert *.aif files to *.mp3 files. Cleaner broke on OS X and we switched to using Applescript to drive iTunes to do the same job, with iTunes already up and running, MP3 encoder selected with the conversion settings we needed. The appleScripts were driven from inside a Rev stack that managed this one among a series of production operations. Now, under Panther, the appleScript and the latest version of iTunes is also broken...it used to be simple: pass a file path to a variable and tell iTunes to convert that file. Now, nothing happens.

I sat with our sound man today and watched him try to debug the script using examples from some iTunes appleScript site... wow, talk about convoluted! I'm really spoiled by xTalk... using iTunes for this seems like using a tablesaw to sharpen a tooth pick... a small knife is really all that is needed.

So, looking for "an easier way..." Can anyone help?

Thanks
