# Bulk Convert MPGA Audio Files to MP3
Python code to easily convert `.mpga` audio files to `.mp3` format in bulk. The code can handle 100s and even 1000s of MPGA audio files to MP3 saved on your local computer.
Here's how you can run the code on your computer:
## 1. Create the `app.py` file
Open the folder where all your `.mpga` files are stored in the VS Code and create a file `app.py` in the same folder and copy paste the following code inside the file:
```python
import os
import shutil
from pydub import AudioSegment
def convert_mpga_to_mp3(file_path):
try:
# Load the .mpga file
song = AudioSegment.from_file(file_path, "mp3")
# Convert to mp3 and export
new_file_path = file_path.rstrip(".mpga") + ".mp3"
song.export(new_file_path, format="mp3")
print(f"Converted {file_path} to {new_file_path}")
return new_file_path
except Exception as e:
print(f"Failed to convert {file_path} due to error: {e}")
return None
# Get all mpga files in the current directory
mpga_files = [f for f in os.listdir('.') if f.endswith('.mpga')]
# Create an 'mp3' directory if it doesn't exist
if not os.path.exists('mp3'):
os.makedirs('mp3')
# Convert all mpga files
for file_path in mpga_files:
new_file_path = convert_mpga_to_mp3(file_path)
if new_file_path is not None:
# Move the mp3 file to the 'mp3' directory
try:
shutil.move(new_file_path, 'mp3/')
print(f"Moved {new_file_path} to mp3/ directory")
except Exception as e:
print(f"Failed to move {new_file_path} due to error: {e}")
```
## 2. Install the `pydub` library
Open the terminal and run the following command to install the `pydub` library:
```
pip install pydub
```
## 3. Run the code
Now, run the code by running the following command:
```
python app.py
```
> Note that, depending upon the Python version and setup on your computer, you may need to use `pip3` and `python3` instead of `pip` and `python` when running the code.
After running the code, your audio files will start getting converted from `.mpga` to `.mp3` file format and the `.mp3` files are saved inside `/mp3` folder inside the main folder.
