Hi, For those of you who don't know, I now have an application on pocket pc using flac. Live2496 does realtime encoding while recording. Live2496 typically is used to record a digital source using the Core Sound PDAudio device. Links are now on the main flac page if you are interested in learning more. I have a question. We have run across a 24-bit file that when we record it, flac level zero compression only results in about a 2% reduction in the file size. I use flac level zero because we don't have the computing power required for (higher level flac) realtime encoding on pocket pc's and windows CE.
What is it about a file that would cause such a poor encoding rate? A couple of observations: Rectangular waves seem to encode at about 55-60% of the original size. Muted digital sources seem to take up very little space.
