soundKonverter project is a frontend to various audio converters.

Currently supported backends are oggenc, oggdec, flac, lame, ffmpeg (partly), mplayer (partly).

With soundKonverter you can convert between various audio file formats. Supported formats are: (encode/decode)

ogg (e/d)
flac (e/d)
mp3 (e/d)
wav (e/d)
wma (d)

Known problems:

-Starting soundKonverter with arguments will fail if there is already an active instance. Use drag'n'drop.
-The progressbar doesn't work fine.
-Calibrating the wma decoder only works one time per reboot for me.
-some small things.

Planned features:

-Profile manager.
-More audio formats.

If you have suggestions feel free to send me a mail. My English is not very well, so feel free to send me corrections of incongruous expressions.

This app is in a very early development stage. I just thought that some guys are waiting for an application like this (me for example). Furthermore it may still take some time to finish it.
