Similarly it makes no sense to destroy all my 320k files by converting them to something much lower than 96k. It seems to make no sense to force 320k, since some files will become many times larger than they need be. Similarly I don't want to convert using a constant bitrate, such as 320k, because some of the files I am converting are 320k m4a's and some are as low quality as 96k m4a's. I tried doing something simple like: ffmpeg -i FILE.m4a FILE.mp3 but this seems to reduce the bitrate to a very low value, which isn't what I want. By February 2009 the program was finished and released to the web.I have a load of audio files (about 1000) which I want to convert from m4a to mp3 so I can use play them on a CD player which has a USB port. During development the scope of the project was increased to support a lot of different formats. Support for the flv format was because it was the format used on YouTube.

This program was suppose to be a Mac OS 9 application, but I couldn’t successfully build FFmpeg on Mac OS 9. So in 2008 I started work on a project I called Flv to MPEG. It later occurred to me that I could make a GUI for this program that would be user friendly. I was able to convert a lot of files with it. It was a command line program that wasn’t user friendly, but did work. My research was slow until I encountered a program called FFmpeg. In 2005 I decided it was time to try to make my own converter application. After three hours of converting and not even reaching the half way mark, I decided it was time to give up.

I actually tried this program out in Virtual PC but it was horribly slow.
#M4A TO MP3 CONVERTER FREE MAC WINDOWS#
The problem with this program was it was a Windows program. I became so desperate that I turned to this open source program that could convert my file into an mpeg 1 file. I was out of luck then with my computer running only Mac OS 10.1.
#M4A TO MP3 CONVERTER FREE MAC SOFTWARE#
I went to the web for a some kind of software to make the file playable, but the only thing I could find needed Mac OS 10.3 in order to run. It was around 2003 when I encountered a AVI file I was desperate to convert. It was all good until I would find a video I wanted, but couldn’t watch it because it was a WMV or the resolution was too high for computer to handle. It had a lot of cool music videos that I loved to download. A couple of years later I was introduced to a site called. Any tiny video clip that could play on a computer was really cool to me then. I was interested in digital video since the late 90’s when Quicktime starting providing channels. I’m not very good with web page development so forgive me if my site isn’t very good. I am just one person trying to better the Macintosh experience. I am not a company or anything like that. If you ever find the need to convert any media files on the Mac, you should check out FLV Crunch first. I used FLV crunch to convert a couple of. And unlike what its name suggests, FLV Crunch actually works with a lot of other files, other than the FLV format. I can’t say it enough: it’s fast, it’s flexible, and it’s completely free.
I skipped over a few files before I finally prodded myself to go search for a solution on the Mac, and I was pleasantly surprised with what I found.įLV Crunch is a free software that’s made by this anonymous programmer, and is an EXCELLENT file converter or media converter for the Mac.
That makes it unplayable on my music player. I like listening to audio books and presentations while I’m driving, but the problem is, most of the files that I find online are usually in the form of a video.
