Mplayer can redirect its output to a file, so there is no need to use
an analog loopback to convert the file... Basically, use mplayer
(hopefully compiled with wma support) to convert wma to wav, then use
lame (or other mp3 encoder) to convert to mp3:
The example input file is "Daniel Bedingfield - Friday.wma"
mplayer -vo null "Daniel Bedingfield - Friday.wma" -ao pcm
lame -b 128 -h audiodump.wav -o "Daniel Bedingfield - Friday.mp3"
The script mentioned in the post above looks like it does basically
the same thing, but in an automated fashon.
Also, if you only want to make an audio cd, it would probably be best
to forgo the wav to mp3 conversion, and make your cd using the wav
files:
mplayer -vo null "Daniel Bedingfield - Friday.wma" -ao
pcm:file="Daniel Bedingfield - Friday.wav"
