convert Images in batch process...

Converting images in a batch process is not difficult in general, but approaches like this fail at filenames/directories with spaces

#!/bin/sh 
for file in $(find -iname *.bmp); 
do 
mogrify -verbose -format png $file;
done

The solution is to use ‘read’ in the following way

#!/bin/sh 
find . -iname "*.bmp" | while read name; do  mogrify -verbose -format png "$name"; done

which converts all *bmp to *.png in the folder and all of its subfolders.

Mount a Samba Share from cheap NAS devices...

I recently bought a NAS device called “LANDISK” on ebay (search for SAMBA-FTP-USB-2-0-LAN on google).

This device includes a samba server which enables sharing of files on the network. The shared files can be accessed very simple via \\netdisk\\yourshare\. This works under Windows and under Linux in konqueror with smb://netdisk/yourshare.

It would however be nicer to have it mounted into the linux filesystem. Unfortunately at this step Linux fails miserably and leave many users totally frustrated! The problem is that the CIFS filesystem (smbfs was removed from the kernel) does not load the share.

m4a nach mp3...

m4aTomp3

#!/bin/bash

# Convert m4a to mp3 
 
for i in $1/*.m4a 
do 
  mplayer -ao pcm "$i" -ao pcm:file="$i.wav" 
  dest=`echo "$i.wav"|sed -e 's/m4a.wav$/mp3/'` 
  lame -h -b 192 "$i.wav" "$dest" 
  rm "$i" "$i.wav" 
done
