My goal is to generate an MP3, for better software/equipment compatibility. I (obviously... ) do not wish to incur any degradation in the conversion. I note the existence of Jpegtran, a set of routines that perform limited manipulation of JPEG image without performing a decode-recode pair. I wish a similar transform, from mp2 to mp3 (if it is possible). Given the existence of mp3repacker, a VERY rough (but lossless) mp2 to mp3 implementation would serve, since the output mp3 could be retrospectively tidied.

I did so quite a while back with recorded satellite radio streams (mp2) and those played back just fine on my Philips eXpanium 511 CD/MP3 player back then This post has been edited by Maggi: Oct 23 2012, 13:14
