audio_conversion

This Python script automates audio file conversion within a directory (specifically where this script is located) using FFmpeg. It iterates through specified audio files and converts them to a new format.

By default the script will keep the original files. You will need to explicitly specify the -d flag to delete the original files.

Example usage

The first argument specifies the source extension, while the second specifies the desired extension. No dot is needed in the extension names.

convert.py webm mp3 # converts all .webm files to .mp3. .webm files will be kept.

convert.py avi mp4 # converts all .avi files to .mp4.

convert.py -d mp3 webm # convert all mp3 files to webm, deleting the original files.

Printing files beforehand

convert.py --print mp3 # prints all .mp3 files that will be converted.

Dependencies

• Python 3.7 and above
• FFmpeg
• Rich
