This is more of an EAC question, but I have not yet received an
answer from my post on that page. Since they are closely related I
thought I would give it a try here.
I just bought a BIG stack of CDs (70+) and decided to recheck all of
my EAC (beta 4) + FLAC (1.1.2) settings prior to ripping and
encoding them. I also calibrated a new external Plextor CD-ROM too.
The setting string I use in EAC's "External Compression" window is:
-8 -V -T "artist=%a" -T "title=%t" -T "album=%g" -T "date=%y" -T
"tracknumber=%n" -T "genre=%m" -T "comment=EAC Secure_Lossless FLAC " %s
On that same "External Compression" page, I noticed the bitrate
selection window directly beneath the compression setting string window.
Does the FLAC string window entry cause the bitrate window to be ignored?
I am desperately hoping that the over 1000 CDs I own and have
already processed (myself) are not in 192kBit/s FLAC, that would
really be very bad news.
Thanks in advance for the help, and I apologize if you consider this
off topic. Looking forward to hearing good news and good music!
That bitrate has nothing at all to do with FLAC. That's used for MP3
if you use EAC to talk tot he LAME DLL to do the encoding. FLAC is
lossless. 192k would not be lossless.
