Re: [MP3 ENCODER] winamp quality
How about increasing the buffer size to about 4 seconds?

It seems in fact that the problem I observe is related to the process priority. Under Windows NT4, it works better (but still not perfect) if I assign a high priority to the WinAmp process.

[MP3 ENCODER] winamp quality
Hello, I use WinAmp (2.62) to play my mp3 files encoded by lame (3.70), and I find it rather bad. The mp3 files are not faulty, since they sound good with the Windows Media Player. But Windows Media Player doesn't have playlists, so I'd like to use WinAmp anyway: are there some particular settings that could improve the decoding ? Thanks, Pierre -- MP3 ENCODER mailing list ( http://geek.rcc.se/mp3encoder/ )

Hi, Pierre: PH I use WinAmp (2.62) to play my mp3 files PH encoded by lame (3.70), and I find it rather PH bad ... are there some particular settings PH that could improve the decoding ? The easiest and fastest thing to try, IMHO, is to use in_mp3.dll from 2.22 version of WinAMP, which is based on Fraunhofer's decoding engine. One can download it from Dmitry Kutsanov's site: http://www.chat.ru/~dkutsanov/in_mp3.zip Personally, I like it better then original Nitrane decoder. Greetings, -E.

Dmitry Hello, (for a friend) i installed winamp 2.6x on a Win98 System (no winamp installed before on the system). LAME VBR-MP3 sounds very bad. On my own WIN NT system (serveral winamp versions are installed before), the same mp3-files sounds good. Does anyone have an idea???
