Transcoding from wma to wav

[patmo98]

I'm creating a Unix shell script that will (in theory) convert from almost any audio format to wav. The $1 and $2 are the file arguments.

Code: Select all

/Applications/VLC.app/Contents/MacOS/VLC "$1" ":sout=#transcode{acodec=s16l,ab=192,channels=1}:standard{access=file,mux=wav,dst=""$2""}:sout-transcode-soverlay=0" vlc:quit -I dummy

I can't figure out why the channels argument isn't taking effect. The output is always a stereo wav file of the same sample rate as the input file. Anyone have advice?
