Re: [MP3 ENCODER] -q1
Roel The graphs you provided show a lower noise, this because --nspsytune Roel probably. It simply sounds poor, really poor. It sounds nothing like Roel the original on my headphones. Roel Roel I use the one with the "RH extensions" from Dmitry. (thanks for all Roel the compiles and hard work Dmitry btw!) --nspsytune doesn't work correctly if RH extensions are enabled. Robert: Have RH extensions already become default? If not, I think it's confusing if there are two binaries. What are advantages of selecting options at compile time? I think selecting experimental options via command line options is more handy. -- Naoki Shibata e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- MP3 ENCODER mailing list ( http://geek.rcc.se/mp3encoder/ )

I don't know any track where the use of -q1 improves sound quality compared to a same sized -q2. That's why I'm asking you all. To be honest I haven't spotted any difference. I don't have decent headphones and find listening tests on my HiFi arduous. I'll stick with -h if there's some doubt over the quality of -q1. I like the extra encode speed too :) I think Roel is the fella who swears by -q1. Maybe he's best to ask? Cheers.
