SoundConverter is the leading audio file converter for the GNOME
Desktop. It reads anything GStreamer can read (Ogg Vorbis, AAC,
MP3, FLAC, WAV, AVI, MPEG, MOV, M4A, AC3, DTS, ALAC, MPC, Shorten,
APE, SID, MOD, XM, S3M, etc...), and writes to Opus, Ogg Vorbis,
FLAC, WAV, AAC, and MP3 files, or use any GNOME Audio Profile. 

SoundConverter aims to be simple to use, and very fast.
Thanks to its multithreaded design, it will use as many cores
as possible to speed up the conversion. It can also extract
the audio from videos. 

Optional dependencies for more audio support are: gst-plugins-bad,
gst-plugins-ugly and gst-ffmpeg
