Converting every .flac files in a folder into 320kbps .mp3 without losing metadata

Question

I'm trying to convert every .flac files in a folder into 320kbps .mp3 without losing metadata

I tried this:

ffmpeg -i *.flac -ab 320k -map_metadata 0 -id3v2_version 3 *.mp3

but it returns: *.flac: Invalid argument

What I would like to do is to convert every flac files into 320kbps mp3 without losing metadata

Thanks.

Answer 1

This do seem to be doable with a simple loop on the Get-ChildItem, like...

PS C:\Users> Get-ChildItem *.flac | % {
  $mp3filename = $_.basename + '.mp3'
  ffmpeg -i $_.filename -ab 320k -map_metadata 0 -id3v2_version 3 $mp3filename
}

This also seems to deal with the "no wildcard" problem mentioned in the comments
