I've looked at pymedia (discontinued), pyglet(great but no converter in there) and audiotools(command line cd ripping), and none seem suitable.
In Python 2.7 , how do you do
convert(wavFileLocation, 'mp3')
If there is no python way, how would you do it in a manner which python can invoke? (e.g. Call a Cross platform command line tool... if exists return (name, pythonCodeForInvocation) )
As you'll be interacting with many audio files, you decide to begin by creating some helper functions. The first one, convert_to_wav(filename) takes a file path and uses PyDub to convert it from a non-wav format to . wav format. Once it's built, we'll use the function to convert Acme's first call, call_1.
This works for many formats, such as WAV, FLAC, and OGG. However, MP3 is not supported. When PySoundFile fails to read the audio file (e.g., for MP3), a warning is issued, and librosa. load falls back to another library called audioread .
I wrote a python library, pydub, that essentially does what Corey's Answer suggests, though it uses ffmpeg in to do the conversions in order to support more formats.
from pydub import AudioSegment AudioSegment.from_wav("/input/file.wav").export("/output/file.mp3", format="mp3")
using lame (command line), you can encode wav to mp3 like this:
$ lame --preset insane /path/to/file.wav
which would create:
file.wav.mp3
in Python, you could use subprocess to call it:
wav = 'myfile.wav' cmd = 'lame --preset insane %s' % wav subprocess.call(cmd, shell=True)
