I'm trying to convert a bunch of flac files to mp3 so I can burn them.
Anyone have any advice for a decent converter?

[Xwee]

Um.. i know the youtube downloader would convert files downloaded from youtube for that, but I heard with the new layout it doesnt work anymore

[jcrdude]

I use this suite here pretty often:

I'm not 100% positive it handles FLAC, but I don't doubt that it would

Super supports it. And about a million other formats.

I'm confused why would you want to convert from lossless to lossy to burn to lossless... that makes no sense to me

[kuwaz]

If you need a program with all in one converting:

They want to convert from Losssless to lossy in order to fit them on a cd. They are not burning to lossless. Burning files keep the file format.

I've used SUPER, but for some reason I ended up using MediaCoder,
I forgot the reason really, but yeah just another choice.

iargue, i understood that they wanted to burn an audio cd... which in fact would be LOSSLESS and has nothing to do with how large the files are but how long(time) they are

[kittycat]

Why not just use a simple program like WINAMP that you probably might even already have...

Reverse that. LOSSLESS doesnt change the length, but changes the file size. LOSSLESS doesnt compress it, and so its going to be as big of a file as possible. And an Audio really is not lossless, and you can record compressed data to the cd, I used to burn MP3's to cd's all the time. Alot of publishing companies put it in mp3 format as well.

Winamp doesnt do compression or conversion silly.

[Redemptionist]

You can use Win AVI to convert

[Antivenin]

WinAVI is a video converter.

??? now I may not be a programmer like you but... you can decode .flac in WINAMP and encode to .wav in iTunes

Once again. Winamp is not a decoder. Your not using Winamp to do this, your using a plugin.

And this was answered several months ago with a proper answer.

I'm sick of people posting in this section. Just go away unless you need help.

Its okay. I just get so sick of people giving advice in this thread. Unless you know 100% what your talking about, just dont answer peoples questions. My method works 100%, with just one step, yours works sometimes, and only through multiple steps.

I use Tunebite. Best program ever. It's not free, but if you're into illegal downloading I'm sure you can find it somewhere.
