-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Greetings!
Sorry! I'm all over the place with e-mail at the moment. Some time ago, someone on list asked about VBR quality with LAME, they said that they were getting mixed results with a quality figure of 9. This will indeed be the case as (with the VBR encoding) 9 is the worst quality you can use. The quality for VBR encoding is slightly different to that of Constant bit rate encoding, the quality setting for VBR encoding affects both the encoded audio nad the size of the file thus the best quality figure is probably about 5, where you get maximum quality and maximum compression. LAME boasts 2 VBR methods, "OLD" and "NEW", "NEW", is very fast but doesn't produce as good a results as does "OLD", which is considerably slower. Naturally! this situation will change as time goes on. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGP 8.0.3 Comment: Dane Trethowan, a client of TFT-BBS run by Gordon Smith iQA/AwUBQTWv/SlBPqY64aUBEQKe9wCgzRz2ovd02UaAewsN5eY0A4cVmsgAoOU7 P+lBFteSR0VToI4YkfrZz8ae =Dv1v -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ PC-Audio List Help, Guidelines, Archives and more... http://www.pc-audio.org To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
