How to Convert MP3 or Wav file to pre-converted SBC files (audio format DS4 uses)

[MrKsiJ]

I use github repository to play audio on Dualshock 4 gamepad for my game,
https://gitlab.com/ryochan7/ds4-audio-test-windows/

There is SBC_Tracks folder in this repository folder and I can not understand how to get such converted files in SBC format I tried it both through GStreamer and FFMPEG but as a result I hear silence, I also tried to initially get wav files from SBC_Tracks and it was successful but then I can't go back to SBC files, can you please help me how to convert mp3/wav files to SBC format supported by DS4 in the same way as it's done with SBC_Tracks folder?

OK Reddit peaple help me.
See result:
ffmpeg -i test.wav -ac 2 -ar 32k -c:a sbc -b:a 224k test_new.sbc

The example SBC files were created using GStreamer on a Manjaro Linux install. sbcenc is a part of the GStreamer Bad plugins but some distros do not seem to compile SBC encoding support with their GStreamer packages. I have an example script included in my small fork of dual-pod-shock.

Example command:

gst-launch-1.0 -q filesrc location="LIL RICHIE - BANWORLD-HCYlrBVE91I.ogg"  ! decodebin ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! sbcenc ! "audio/x-sbc,rate=32000,channels=2,channel-mode=dual,blocks=16,subbands=8,allocation-method=loudness,bitpool=25" ! queue ! filesink location="audiofilename.sbc" sync=false

Although it is not shown in the script, the use of the volume filter can be useful depending on the gain level of the input file.
