Hi,

After conversion (using ffmpeg, see below) from aac to mp3, the output
file is too big, and, when listening to it, the music is way too
slow.

How can I fix this?

Thanks,
Petru

Set your output to 44100 Hz.

I've tried this, but with no success. The result is SLOW, no matter
what I do to the rates etc. :-(

$> ffmpeg -i /tmp/radio/input-from-radio.aac -acodec mp3 -ar 44100
/tmp/radio/output/output.mp3

I also found somebody with a similar problem:

I've tried to convert to a wav file (what does raw format mean?!) and
then to mp3 but still it is invariable slooooow.
