Converting flac to mp3.

**emshains** · June 21st, 2009

I needed to convert some music so my iphone could play it. I used soundKonverter, which is a kde app. It all went smooth during the conversion, but, for some odd reason, my iphone wouldn't play it. I converted it to a 320kb mp3 and I tried to play it both on dTunes and pwnplayer. They just sort of skip the songs.

Try with pacpl.You are using Kubuntu so you can even get GUI.More about pacpl you can find here.

If you want a GUI app, I'd recommend Audacity. It's in the repositories. Simply open the FLAC file, and export as MP3.

It gives you good control over the mp3 parameters, and is a great editor as well, should you be interested.

To steal some PR from the Audacity homepage:

Audacity has been chosen as "Favorite Audio Tool" in Linux Journal's 2009 Readers' Choice Awards.
