Fail to write mp3 file in ubuntu

[itsdapi]

my code is

import numpy as np
import soundfile as sf

print(sf.__libsndfile_version__)
sf.write('stereo_file2.mp3', np.random.randn(10, 2), 44100)

and the out put

1.1.0
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "sftest.py", line 5, in <module>
    sf.write('stereo_file2.mp3', np.random.randn(10, 2), 44100)
  File "/home/dapi/.local/lib/python3.8/site-packages/soundfile.py", line 340, in write
    with SoundFile(file, 'w', samplerate, channels,
  File "/home/dapi/.local/lib/python3.8/site-packages/soundfile.py", line 655, in __init__
    self._file = self._open(file, mode_int, closefd)
  File "/home/dapi/.local/lib/python3.8/site-packages/soundfile.py", line 1213, in _open
    raise LibsndfileError(err, prefix="Error opening {0!r}: ".format(self.name))
soundfile.LibsndfileError: Error opening 'stereo_file2.mp3': File contains data in an unimplemented format.

Since the apt can only get libsndfile1 version 1.0.28, so i Cmake it to update to 1.1.0 like

./configuration
make
sudo make install

The Soundfile version is 0.11.0b6 ubuntu server 20.04

It did generate an mp3 file but it was corrupted.

i tried

sf.write('stereo_file.mp3', np.random.randn(10, 2), 44100, format='MP3', subtype='MPEG_LAYER_III')

but it was the same result

On Linux, soundfile uses your system-installed libsndfile. What version is your libsndfile, and does it support MP3 yet?

yeah i have checked it is 1.1.0

But when i list all avaliable formats and suntypes, MP3 not showing up.

It might be that your libsndfile is the current version, but MP3 support is not enabled. Did you compile it with liblame and mpg123? Have a look at this build script to compile a working version: https://github.com/bastibe/libsndfile-binaries/blob/master/mac_build.sh

no i just download the tar.xz file and run the configure file, and sudo make install I will check it later

That's probably the reason then. The default compilation probably doesn't include MP3 support, or didn't find the required dependencies.
