![]() ![]() Then to convert it to MP3 format using an average audio bitrate of say “96 kbit/s” I’d use the below command. Let’s say that I have a Vorbis audio called “1.ogg”. Once the download completes, just double click on it and Ubuntu Software Center should install it for you. If interested, you can install “ogg2mp3” in Ubuntu 12.04 Precise Pangolin, 11.10 Oneiric Ocelot, 11.04 Natty Narwhal, 10.10 and 10.04 by first getting the “.deb” file from this ogg2mp3 download page. Other than entering a bitrate, you can change the quality by using a number which enables a preset (0 to 9, lover the better. Channel output support include: stereo, mono, dual-mono etc. Supports average and constant bitrate modes. ![]() It’s actually a tool that uses the ‘lame’ (default MP3 encoder) and most of its commands are the commands of ‘lame’. Other than that, it’s an extremely useful tool. Meaning that if one of your OGG files has a bit of a improper coding in its meta-data header, it won’t encode it. ![]() The only issue that I have with it is that it is really sensitive. So in that sense, even if it sucks □ if you have a large collection of OGG Vorbis files, then to play it in your portable audio player for instance, you will have to convert them into MP3 and for that you can try ‘ogg2mp3. ![]() There are a few that supports OGG Vorbis too but that’s nowhere near the level of MP3 support. But MP3 is still one of the widely used formats and is supported by most audio players etc. MP3 is an old lossy proprietary audio codec (compression format) and when compared to the open source answer to it (OGG Vorbis), it has many drawbacks.įor instance, OGG can hold more than 2 audio channels where MP3 can only hold 2, it can give better quality outputs in the same bitrate, it also compresses better than MP3 at both lower and higher bitrates and the list goes on -). ![]()
