Thanks, too bad it is only using one thread. Is there anyway to have use more then the one?

Start it multiple times on different set of files? Just use different wildcards for each invocation (or use different folders, or ...). With a bit of additional things you can make that line also do the mp3 decoding etc.

I started multiple ones, i am trying to figure out the mp3 decoding part so i don't have code them over to wav first that wast a lot of time. I am thinking about using ffmpeg.

EDIT: how would i have it go straight to encoding to opus from the mp3 to wav decode? or can i?

i have this right now but i don't know bash really well so it doesn't work but hopefully you know what i am trying to get done by reading it.


--- Code: ---for m in *.mp3;do ffmpeg -i "$m" "$w"; opusenc --vbr --bitrate 15 "$w" "$(basename "$m")".opus;#rm -v *.mp3; done
--- End code ---

You do realize that by converting from MP3 to OPUS you are decreasing audio quality?
