How do I encode my mp2 audio files to ogg? Can't find a simple tutorial or anything out there.

What I want is to batch encode a number of files; title1.mp2 etc to title1.ogg etc deleting the source file after completion, any ideas anyone?

Without an MP2 to test I'm not sure, but I've used oggifier which converted from flac and mp3 (with lame). Be warned though, all it does is decode and recode, nothing fancy.

This is a Windows only solution and you do need to pay for it but I've used it for years with great results.

Easy CD-DA Extractor

There is a trial version, I'm not sure on the restrictions on it though. Good luck with your project.

I use Foobar2000 to convert from flac to ogg. Here is a good site with instructions and screenshots of how to set this up. When you download foobar2k make sure you download 0.8.3 special as it comes with all the extra plugins needed to play different files types.

Oggifier doesn't like mp2 files.

Thanks, I've downloaded it but I can't say I've been able to make any sense of FooBar (well not the re-coding bit anyway)

I always recommend DMC MusicConverter for these sorts of things. Converts just about anything to just about anything.

Like it a lot, only thing is it's running really slow on my system, 0.84xReal Time, this is on a Celeron 1.1Mhz with 512Mb RAM running nothing else.
