On-device encoding can work the processor harder than ordinary playback during this M4B-to-MP3 job.
A short M4B sample is quicker to process than a full-length recording.
Compare the MP3 duration with the source before publishing.

MP3 serves phones, websites, podcasts, and universal playback, whereas M4B commonly serves audiobooks and chapter-aware Apple playback.
For M4B-to-MP3 delivery, plan for quality loss from further lossy encoding.
After leaving M4B, the receiving app must support the streams encoded inside MP3, not only its extension.

M4B to MP3 taking too long? Process a shorter section to determine whether file size is the bottleneck.
MP3 converted from M4B not opening? Test a compatible player and inspect the output streams.
A MP3 extension alone may not be enough; verify the required internal codec.

When does M4B to MP3 conversion make sense?

It is useful when M4B media created for spoken-word publishing must enter a MP3 system designed for easy sharing.

Where is the M4B source processed?

The browser prepares MP3 from M4B on this device instead of sending the source to a remote conversion server.

How can I approve MP3 converted from M4B?

Test the MP3 file in the receiving app and compare duration, channels and loudness with the M4B source.
