Hello,

I am using the following script to convert all .wma files in a given directory to mp3s.

for %%a in (*.wma) do cmd /c "C:\Program Files\videoLAN\VLC\vlc" -I dummy -vvv %%a 

--sout=#transcode{acodec=mp3,ab=64}:standard{access=file,dst=%%a.mp3} vlc://quit

It works fine, except when there are spaces in the .wma file name. I tried adding double quotations around %%a, but still no luck. Does anyone have any ideas?

Something like

Code: Select all

for %%a in (*.wma) do "C:\Program Files\videoLAN\VLC\vlc" -I dummy -vvv "%%a" --sout=#transcode{acodec=mp3,ab=64}:standard{access=file,dst="%%a".mp3} vlc://quit

That worked.

Thanks!
