.FLAC to MP3?
How does one go about converting .flac into mp3 format? I've tried using Windows Media Player to burn the music (which automatically converts the music into a burnable format), but with .flac it doesn't work. Anyone know of a free program that converts these into mp3's?

dbPowerAmp has always done the job for me. Google it.
There's nowhere I can't reach. |
Hey thanks !
Most amazing jew boots |
No problem.
I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body? |
Is there anyway I can convert them without having a license?
I was speaking idiomatically.

As long as this is what you downloaded, that shouldn't be an issue. At least it wasn't for me.

You can also use the oh-so-handy foobar2000. Just select the tracks, right-click, go to Convert, and it's all smooth-sailing from there.
But yeah, I mainly use dBPowerAmp. FELIPE NO |
Alternately, you could use Speek's MultiFrontend as I detail under the "Encoding directly from WAV and other lossless formats" topic of my audio ripping guide: http://www.gamingforce.org/forums/sh...ad.php?t=15562

Or, you could use FLACdrop and drag and drop the FLAC onto the icon, and it'll become a WAV, and then use LAMEDropXPd to make it a high-quality MP3 file.

You could also use Exact Audio Copy to accomplish this. Just drag and drop the FLAC files you have into the flac frontend (installed when you download FLAC) and decode the files, now you move the decoded (PCM) files into EAC and you'll be able to encoded them into whatever format you want (MP4/AAC, MP3, LAME, WMA9 [lossless], WMA, ect).
This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. |
Or you could just use foobar, which is completely, and utterly free. <3
Right click song in foobar, convert, save, wait, done. Really easy stuff. I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body? |

EAC isn't open-source. Free, sure, but it's still proprietary.

If you want only open-source tools then you could use something like toolchain:
flac-1.2.0 to decode the .FLAC (the reference encoder also contains a decoder) lame-3.97 to encode to .MP3 metaflac to extract tags from .FLAC, and eyeD3 to write them to the .MP3 That's fully scriptable and should be fast. And can be used for a massive amount of files without clicking orgies. EDIT: If you have only 'basic' tags in the .FLAC you can avoid eyeD3 and simply pass them to lame. FELIPE NO
