Python script to convert AAX files to MP3
AAX2MP3_py
This is a rough rewrite of KrumpetPirate AAXtoMP3 but in python. As with AAXtoMP3
you will need to use a tool like audible-activator to get the authcode needed to decrypt the audio.
An advantage this script has over the original is that it uses mp3splt to split the decrypted audio into chapter files which is much faster than using ffmpeg
. A disadvantage this script has compared to the original is that it only supports MP3
output (for now)
