I'm trying to get my convert.conf setup to use mplayer to transcode AAC to FLAC and mp3. I followed the AppleLosslessUnix wiki page and have been able to convert the AAC to wav, but I stream music to work and the wav output is just a little bit bigger that my pipe can handle.

I can't seem to figure out the syntax to use for mplayer to pipe the output into Lame. Here's what I currently have in my convert.conf:

[mplayer] -novideo -ao pcm $FILE$ | [lame] ...

What am I missing?
