SOUNDCONVERTER(1)             GNOME User's Manual            SOUNDCONVERTER(1)


NAME

       soundconverter - convert sound files to other formats


SYNOPSIS

       soundconverter [options] [file...]


DESCRIPTION

       soundconverter is a simple tool for converting sound files to other
       formats.  It can work from the command line, but is really meant for
       interactive use in the GNOME environment.


OPTIONS

       -h, --help
              Print out a usage summary.

       -b, --batch
              Convert in batch mode, from command line, without a graphical
              user interface.  You can use this from, say, shell scripts.

       -m, --mime-type arg
              Set the output MIME type for batch mode.  The default is
              audio/x-vorbis.  Note that you probably want to set the output
              suffix as well.  You can also use shortcuts: aac, flac, mp3,
              vorbis, wav.

       -q, --quiet
              Be quiet.  Don't write normal output, only errors.

       -d, --debug
              Print additional debug information.

       -s, --suffix arg
              Set the output filename suffix for batch mode.  The default is
              .ogg.  Note that the suffix does not affect the output MIME
              type.

       -t, --tags
              Show tags for input files instead of converting them.  This
              indicates command line batch mode and disables the graphical
              user interface.

       -j, --jobs=
              Force number of concurent conversions.  Default is one per
              present CPU.
