Close, but this will give you disappointing results, since the audio
will be too attenuated, and you may not even get the right audio
track. I would try something more like this:
mplayer -vo null -ao pcm -aofile stream.pcm $vob_tempfile -alang
$lang -aid $lang_code
(where alang is en and aid is 128, in most cases. Run mplayer -v on
the vob to make sure; one or the other is necessary, depending on your
version of MPlayer, so it's easiest just to use both)
normalize stream.pcm
oggenc -b $abr -o $ogg_filename stream.pcm
Notice the conspicuous substitution of OGG for MP3. ;-)
