-===== Convert files in all sub-directories to a different bitrate =====

-===== Convert files in all sub-directories to a different bitrate, but only if they have bitrates above a specific value =====
-==== Using only built in Bash functions ====
-<code bash>
-find . -type f -name "*.mp3" -print0 | while IFS= read -r -d '' file; do echo "$file"; [[ $(file "$file" | sed 's/.*, \(.*\)kbps.*/\1/' | tr -d " ") -gt 192 ]] && lame -b 192 "$file" "${file%.*}".192.mp3 && mv "${file%.*}".192.mp3 "$file"; done

-**NOTE:** This uses the **file** command to determine the bitrate.
-  * Unfortunately, sometimes the **file** command does not return the bitrate and returns something like **Audio file with ID3 version 2.3.0**.
-  * For these files, the **$(file "$file" | sed 's/.*, \(.*\)kbps.*/\1/' | tr -d " ")** part will not work.
-  * The bitrate is set to 192 kbps for any file that has a bitrate above 192 kbps.

-==== Using mp3info ====
-<code bash>
-find . -type f -name "*.mp3" -print0 | while IFS= read -r -d '' file; do echo "$file"; [[ $(mp3info -r m -p "%r" "$file") -gt 192 ]] && lame -b 192 "$file" "${file%.*}".192.mp3 && mv "${file%.*}".192.mp3 "$file"; done
-</code>
-<WRAP info>
-**NOTE:** This uses the **mp3info** command to determine the bitrate.
-    * This **mp3info** command needs to be installed with **sudo apt install mp3info**.
