If you would like to encode a complete directory try:    for %i in (*.wav) do mppenc %i
You can also download the Mppenc Frontend (see below). This piece of software makes it a lot easier for you to encode your music. You don't need to use the commands anymore. Click [here] for other ways of batch encoding (encoding in another program).
