I'm not too sure where I got this from but I think it works:

#!/bin/bash
if [ ! -f "$1" ]; then
	echo "Usage: $(basename $0) <file.mp3> [Album name]"
	exit 1
fi
IN_FILE="$1"
OUT_FILE="${IN_FILE%%.mp3}".ogg
TOC_FILE="${IN_FILE%%.mp3}".toc
mkfifo soundpipe
oggenc -b 192 soundpipe -o "$OUT_FILE" > /dev/null 1>&2 &
mplayer -quiet -ao pcm -aofile soundpipe -vo null -vc dummy "$IN_FILE"
2> /dev/null | grep -e author -e name > "$TOC_FILE"
rm -f soundpipe
TITLE=$(cat "$TOC_FILE" | grep " name:" | sed -e 's/ name: //g')
ARTIST=$(cat "$TOC_FILE" | grep " author:" | sed -e 's/ author: //g')
ALBUM=""
[ -n "$2" ] && ALBUM="$2"
vorbiscomment -a -t "ARTIST=$ARTIST" -t "TITLE=$TITLE" -t
"ALBUM=$ALBUM" "$OUT_FILE"
rm -f "$TOC_FILE"

Put it in your Nautilus scripts folder, make it executable, and then
you can right click on your mp3 and select the script from the context
menu.
