It wouldn't convert the genre tags, because "lame --genre-list" outputs to stderr. I changed the "lame | grep" line to if ! lame --genre-list 2>&1 | grep -x " \{0,2\}[0-9]\{1,3\} ${command[$((i+1))]}" >/dev/null; then The 2>&1 redirects stderr to stdout so grep can see it. The -x make grep match the whole line (otherwise the genre Pop matches BritPop, Pop-Folk, ...). Finally, the "\{ \}" patterns catch the genre numbers output by lame --genre-list.

This is what I love about Linux , it is easy to get under the bonnet, there seems to be always some one there who can hand you the tools, and if I stuff up I normally can see the fix and if not there will be somebody else who has done the same thing and can help me untangle my self. The other nice thing is now I have a bit on experience under my belt I am helping others it is easy to give back.
