Sound Converter wma to mp3 conversion fails
Binary package hint: soundconverter
I have to update the description, because I first titled this "Sound Converter broken in Intrepid", but then tried the same conversion on another machine running Hardy and an earlier version of SoundConverter (1.0.1). The wma to mp3 conversion failed in the same way. However, when I tried wav to mp3 and ogg to mp3, it worked just fine. So the problem is not with the later version packaged with Intrepid, but rather related to the wma file format, I suppose.
Still, trying to convert wma to ogg or mp3, I get just a frozen process bar each time. Pressing the "Pause" button results in a message telling me that one of the files is being converted, pressing it again, I'm told that the second file is being converted, etc. The mp3 and ogg files get listed in the appropriate directory but contain no data.
The attached video screenshot (ogv file made with RecordMyDesktop) describes the situation most graphically.
