Need a FLAC to MP3 converter

[montypythizzle]

I have albums/folders that are FLAC encoded, I want to make them MP3 encoded for my MP3 player of course.
But the problem with most encoders is that they do not encode the whole folder which I want for cleanliness of my MP3 album list in my MP3 player. I can get "demos" of about anyone you can find.

http://flac.sourceforge.net/ has been working well for me.

Cdex / LAME has a batch conversion option, it preserves the directory layout if that is what you are after. I am sure that there is a FLAC plugin for it if it does not come built in.

These files are on my HDD, how am I suppose to open them with Cdex?
Is there any other program?

I use Frontah. You can drop in a bunch of folders and it'll output MP3s in the source folder or where you specify.

If you just want to transcode flac to mp3 just to put it in a DAP, http://www.mediamonkey.com will do format conversions on the fly as part of the DAP sync.

I have all my audio on the PC (NAS actually) as FLAC and they magically become 320k mp3's when they go to my ipod. Sadly the current version of Media Monkey does not support transcoding to apple loseless but the next version might.
