I found a recipe for converting flac to mp3: flac -cd in.flac | lame -h - out.mp3 and I thought I might be able to able to combine multiple flac files into a single mp3 file with something like the following: ( flac -cd file1.flac ; flac -cd file2.flac ) | lame -h - both.mp3 but in practice only the first flac command is executed (see below) I imagine it would be possible to convert to multiple mp3 files and join those, but I'm curious as to why it fails as a shell script. -------------------------------------------------------------------- $ ( flac -cd file1.flac ; flac -cd file2.flac ) | lame -h - both.mp3 flac 1.2.1, Copyright (C) 2000,2001,2002,2003,2004,2005,2006,2007 Josh Coalson flac comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY.
