There are two possiblities for display update frequency: 1st) #define I_HAVE_NEVER_SEEN_LAME_ON_A_486_100_OR_A_ATHLON_1000 and display updates every 50 frames (MPEG-1) or 100 frames (MPEG-2) (Why this differences?) This difference is probably because in mpeg-1 there are

May be too difficult for end users, but nice for development. I don't think that it may be annoying for end users. Another question would be, what is best: * Showing the percentage relative to the number of already coded frames I would personnaly vote for this one. Regards, --

Thanks - I'll revisit your website. Another question :) Is there a preferred (or even mandatory) sequence to command-line opions for Lame ? I remember how quirky DOS could be in this respect The only problem is if you use incompatiable options - LAME does not check for

Frank, your are missing a third option: PROJECT_MAINTAINER_DOES_NOT_CARE_AND DOES_NOT_WANT_THIS_CODE_IN_LAME The display is updated every 50 frames. It is simple and works well enough. I want this type of code kept to an absolute minimum since this kind of stuff really belongs in the front
