converting flac to mp3 with ffmpeg
Bluetooth can't send FLAC files. This is so I can play flac files on the bluetooth in the car.
It spits out mp3's at 320 kbps, which is good enough for any car, and likely better than my ears can discern in that setting.
What works works...
You need to open a terminal window in the folder holding the flac files, and it will spit them out in that same folder.
Bag and tag them after that. It's actually quite fast, even with this old tower.
