Audio Converter

Audio Converter

Convert any audio file to selected formats (i.e. mp3) inside your browser!

What is Audio Converter?
Audio Converter is a Chrome extension that enables easy conversion of audio files. Using the FFmpeg library, audit files can be converted to a selected format within the browser. Users simply drag an audio file, input the desired FFmpeg command and wait for the conversion. Notably, this tool is ideal for simple conversions and may be slower than native applications due to running FFmpeg in-browser. For bug reporting, consult the add-on's homepage.

Summary

Audio Converter is an add-on that helps you easily convert an audio format to another. It uses the FFmpeg library which is compiled from C and C++ language to JavaScript with Emscripten compiler. Emscripten is a source-to-source compiler that can compile native C/C++ codes to JavaScript language. Please read this Wikipedia page to get more info about the Emscripten compiler.

To work with this add-on, simply open the app UI and drag an audio file to the designated area in the app (top section). Then, type your FFmpeg command in the input area and press the - Run - button. Once the conversion is done, the link to download the audio file will be available at the bottom of the UI. Please note that conversion may take some time depending on the audio size and also the type of conversion that you choose. There are some sample commands available in the app UI which you can choose to start working with this add-on.

Note: Since this add-on runs FFmpeg in the browser, it is slower than the native FFmpeg applications/library. However, using the add-on is very easy. Simply add it to your browser and it starts to work without any additional plugins. It is only suitable for simple conversions and has a limited number of codecs.

Note: This add-on is specifically designed for "audio" conversion. If you want to convert a "video" file, please use my other add-on Video Converter (https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/video-converter/icmgolelmdmakliojggoobcjdbdkpipd).

To report bugs, please fill the bug report form on the addon's homepage (https://mybrowseraddon.com/audio-converter.html).

Funkar utmärkt från wav → mp3, men tar tid... 1 fil i taget... lägger inte wavfilnamnet som mp3filnamn - måste göras manuellt
