No, it DOESN'T work.
First of all, what's up with the bitrate menu? Is it the -b or -B ?
And why is it you HAVE to choose one?
But the biggest problem is I made several encodings with every option
the same except the -V (variable quality). I made batches with 0, 1, 2,
3, & 4. I couldn't understand the relationship between the size of the
files and the -V number. In otherwords -V0 > -V1 > -V2 > -V3 > -V4
relationship to file sizes was NOT true.
Then I did everything with the command line and got entirely different
results.
I THINK THAT THE LAMEBATCH LINK SHOULD BE TAKEN OFF OF THE LAME WEBPAGE.
I've spent many hours confused with what I thought was lame and it turned
out to be lamebatch...
