YAFLAC2MP3

I've just uploaded to GitHUB a script which pretty does the same of yours, perhaps you would like to take a look.

YAFLAC2MP3

I tried yours, but it didn't work. I ran id3v2 and it said that there were no id3 tags in the flac files. However easytag shows them.

Nick's script DID work - so it would be interesting to know why his script finds the tags but yours doesn't.

Checked it out looks quite similar

I noticed you did some things differently. Will look more into it and see what i can change on my script. Also does your script work properly when a flac encoded file has the variables in upper/lower case or mixed case? I am always looking to streamline my script.

Yes, it does. The script

Yes, it does. The script take care about those variables names in upper/lower/mixed case parsing the complete output of metaflac accordingly, then Artist= or ARTIST= or ArTiSt= (you've got the idea) became artist=, so it always work. :)

And yes, looks quite similar but it got some differences:

* Uses more bash's parameter expansions.
* Works recursively.
* Calls metaflac just once.
* Use arrays to store data.
* Adds -t* option to flac command just if its necessary.

Thanks for posting, regards.
