[ubuntu-nz] Folder magic for music?

[David Lane]

I seem to recall trying a plugin for Amarok a year or two ago which
allowed you to select a playlist (e.g. a directory of files) and request
that all be converted... had a nice interface which allowed you to set
default sample rates, etc. for different formats...  Haven't looked for
it recently, though.
