you _can_ also do that with lame:
lame -q 9 foo.wav foo.mp3
Using polyphase lowpass filter, transition band: 15115 Hz - 15648 Hz
Encoding foo.wav to foo.mp3
Encoding as 44.1 kHz 128 kbps j-stereo MPEG-1 Layer III (11x) qval=9
Frame | CPU time/estim | REAL time/estim | play/CPU | ETA
9173/147000 ( 6%)| 0:13/ 3:36| 0:13/ 3:41| 17.697x| 3:27
average: 128.0 kbps MS: 9176 (100.0%)
cpu is a duron 800, so this is approximately as fast as musicmatch.
btw i can listen to the mp3 without having blood running out of my
ears, i remember having downloaded mp3s that sounded worse.
however i usually encode with -q 2 and vbr, which brings my speed
down to realtime again.
regards,
wernfried
