I found that setting -8 took 3 times as long to encode, for a 0.5% decrease in file size, as compared to -5. However, I believe there is not much difference in time to *decode*, although I didn't test that; if true, then one would not expect any impact on battery life. cheers, calum. _______________________________________________ ripping mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/ripping
