Convert issues with path in windows

Help
1

Hey!

Just trying to convert my whole folder, but the operation stops when it meets some songs which path are big/complex, so I think the problem is with the difference for paths in windows:

error: convert: couldn’t invoke ‘ffmpeg -i C:\Users\renna\music\Action Bronson\JOHANN SEBASTIAN BACHLAVA THE DOCTOR\01 SPLASH (PROVOCATIV).flac -y -f mp3 -ab 320k C:\Users\renna\Music_Converted\Action Bronson\JOHANN SEBASTIAN BACHLAVA THE DOCTOR\01 SPLASH (PROVOCATIV).mp3’: [WinError 2] The system cannot find the file specified

My config file on convert is

convert:
auto: no
dest: ~/Music_Converted
never_convert_lossy_files: yes
hardlink: true
formats:
mp3:
command: ffmpeg -i $source -y -ab 320k $dest
extension: mp3

I tried a lot of things, even powershell scripts, but no progress =(

Thanks for the help <3

You could try putting quotes around $source and $dest, you may have to experiment with the quotes, or in the convert plugin add quotes around where $source and $dest are defined.

It may also be that the path+filename is too long?

Blockquote
command: ffmpeg -i “$source” -y -ab 320k “$dest”
