FLAC to AAC

[Prodigy_Smit]

So basically I have a huge library of FLACs that I would need to batch convert to AAC or MP3 to play on a mobile device.

I have ffmpeg installed on windows but can't figure out how to convert a whole folder and its subfolders.

 

Any software or a command with ffmpeg?

What mobile device do you have? I believe VLC can play flacs on both iOS and Android. Some stock music apps can also play flacs

I have an iPhone X but the problem is not playing flacs it is that the file sizes of the flacs will fill up my phones storage instantly.

fre:ac is what I use to convert my FLACs to MP3 for my iPhone 6s.

You can do batch conversions, and set audio quality manually to 320mbps CBR.
