I went to a convention and recorded 49 talks. I edited in Audacity, put them in a folder as mp3 for my ipod.
I used 129 for the bitrate. Since all the files are just a little to big for my old ipod, I want to make them smaller. Since it's just speeches, 64 should do just fine.
I'll have to open each, 49 files, in Audacity, one at a time. Save them at 64. Is there a way to take the whole folder and do it without having to do each file separate?
Thank you,
Chris.

try MediaCoder (it's free).
it can batch process 20 at a time. more than that you need pro.
http://mediacoder.sourceforge.net/ -
There are many tools available for MP3 to MP3 batch conversion.
In addition to Mediacoder, you can use Bonkenc or Format Factory (both have a small footprint on the PC). -
Uh, why not just use LAME, do something like:
lame Track1.mp3 -o Track1.wav --decode
lame Track1.wav -o Track1.mp3 --abr 64 -q 0 --resample 22
lame Track2.mp3 -o Track1.wav --decode
lame Track2.wav -o Track1.mp3 --abr 64 -q 0 --resample 22
lame Track3.mp3 -o Track1.wav --decode
lame Track3.wav -o Track1.mp3 --abr 64 -q 0 --resample 22
...

this dos command script (mp3-resize.cmd) should do the trick... It's borrow heavily from an MEncode.cmd that batch processed HD mjpeg into HD mpeg2.
@echo off
:: Loop through all input files
for /f "usebackq delims=" %%i in (`dir /b "%~1"`) do call :ConvertThis "%~dp1%%i"
goto :eof
::
:: End of script. Subroutines follow.

:ConvertThis
:: Safety check for output file existence
if not exist "%~dpn1.mp3" goto ConvertNow
echo.
echo WARNING: Output file %~dpn1.mp3 already exists. Corresponding source file will not be converted again.
echo.
goto :eof
:ConvertNow
:: Lame it!
lame "%~1" -o "%~dpn1.wav" --decode
lame "%~dpn1.wav" -o "%~1.mp3.new" --abr 64 -q 0 -resample 22
goto :eof -
I use all2lame for things like this. find it here:
