NAME

SYNOPSIS

9       soundconverter [options] [file...]
10

DESCRIPTION

12       soundconverter  is  a  simple  tool for converting sound files to other
13       formats.  It can work from the command line, but is  really  meant  for
14       interactive use in the GNOME environment.
15

OPTIONS

17       -h, --help
18              Print out a usage summary.
19
20       -b, --batch
21              Convert  in  batch  mode, from command line, without a graphical
22              user interface.  You can use this from, say, shell scripts.
23
24       -m, --mime-type arg
25              Set the output  MIME  type  for  batch  mode.   The  default  is
26              audio/x-vorbis.   Note  that you probably want to set the output
27              suffix as well.  You can also use  shortcuts:  aac,  flac,  mp3,
28              vorbis, wav.
29
30       -q, --quiet
31              Be quiet.  Don't write normal output, only errors.
32
33       -d, --debug
34              Print additional debug information.
35
36       -s, --suffix arg
37              Set  the  output filename suffix for batch mode.  The default is
38              .ogg.  Note that the suffix does  not  affect  the  output  MIME
39              type.
40
41       -t, --tags
42              Show  tags  for  input  files  instead of converting them.  This
43              indicates command line batch mode  and  disables  the  graphical
44              user interface.
45
46       -j, --jobs=
47              Force  number  of  concurrent  conversions.   Default is one per
48              present CPU.
