I found simply console OGG encoder with support MP3 input. ftp://ftp.zlurp.com/exe/vorbis/ogglame.zip
In this version fixed parametres of encoding (only q3) and crashed tags after reencoding. I need for console version of MP3 to OGG reencoder with saving tags. You know?

Transcode from a lossy file to another lossy file is ALWAYS not recommended.

This has been discussed here several times.

You will lose sound quality doing this.

It's better to leave the original files as they are.

I know this. MP3 support in encoder needs for me becouse I needs convert high bitrate MP3 (~320kbps) to OGG -q1 (80kbps). MP3 320kbps is very high of quality for encoding in low-quality OGG.

http://www.foobar2000.org/ should be able to do that (i dont know if there is a vorbis 'cli' compile with mp3 input support, probably not.)

smok3,
Thank you.
I used for this task foobar2000 with command line encoder.
I needs in command line encoder with MP3 input support for remote encoding on my server (with HTTP access). I can start command line encoder from PHP-script.
smok3
right, well, what i would do is write a lil bat script like:

1. decode from orig.mp3 with LAME to tmp.wav
2. extract id3 or ape data from orig.mp3 using case TAG (where to download that?) to tmp.txt (or something)
3. encode tmp.wav to vorbis using OGGENC and again TAG to tag that new file, then rename to orig.ogg.

Why don't you use something like Winlame with the OGG Encoding libs?... huh.gif

This will also work.....

CDEx can do this directly...

I disagree... just dont think thats the way it works...
your source is still missing a LOT of data from the original cd... vorbis encoder analyses all the data... (like 40 mb for a 4min song) but now there is only 10-12mb left (mp3)
beto
The transcode from mp3 320kbps might be acceptable depending on the intended use, ie streaming....
