Hi there

I'm using ITunesencode to convert my wav files (easier than the standalone iTunes)
My problem is that my files are stored into different levels of directories and I would like to know if I could pass the high level directory as an argument

itunesencode -i mydirectory/*.* -o mycodeddirectory/

Thanx

When you say "high level directory" do you mean parent directory?

You could do this with a Windows Script file I guess.

Alternatively, use foobar 0.9 with the Converter component, with an output filename string something like:

CODE
%_directoryname%\%_filename%

with the iTunesEncode foobar commandline:

CODE
-e "AAC Encoder" -i %s -o %d

Edit: %_directoryname % > %_directoryname%

i don't use itunes, but i remember a friend just importing all of his music into the database and it converted everything to AAC.

i can't imagine that being too complicated...

otherwise, you can start from the parent directory and use "sweep" (a windows program that provides recursion) with your current itunesencode setup.

Thank you for your reply, I've just finished a batch script that does a recursive search
