--alt-preset CBR 192 for standard ?!

Hi there,

who could create me a LAME-Version (latest alpha),
which does "lame --alt-preset CBR 192" for standard ??

Thanks
Tobias

May I ask why you want cbr192,you'll find --alt preset standard performs better.

my Hardware-Player cannot handle VBR ... That is why I need CBR :-)

Open a command window where lame is stored and type:

set lameopt=--alt-preset cbr 192

to set this as your standard settings.

but will that override any settings of a MP3-Encoder-Application ?

1) What application are you using?

2) What player?

VBR is part of the MP3 standard, so if your player can't handle it, it's technically not an MP3 player.

a) CDex (Version 1.50, Beta 4) ... I know, I just could only use EXTERNAL ENCODER with "LAME.EXE" and use the commandline, but the LAME-DLL is MUCH !!! faster.
I don't know why, but it is really faster.

Lame-DLL: 0min 51sec @ Athlon 1333
Lame-EXE: 1min 32sec @ Athlon 1333

b) Brujo MP3-Player.
On of the first Hardware-MP3-Player ever ...
With a Teac CD-ROM and a LED-Display.
It sometimes skips when playing VBR MP3s or it does not detect them even.

I believe (so i'm not sure) that what i told you only works with the .exe not with the dll.

But why do you want it anayway ? You only have to fill it in once in your ripper/encoder.

@benny:

I have detected that on-the-fly DLL is WAY faster than EXE-on-the-fly

that's why I wanna use the DLL ... and it runs more "smooth".

I thought there wouldn't be a problem ... lame is opensource and I thought anybody is here with a compiler :-((

The speed difference has nothing to do with whether you're using DLL or EXE, it's the setting that makes the difference. With the DLL, the setting you're using is equivalent to "-b 192" (which doesn't give all too good quality), whereas using LAME.EXE with "--alt-preset cbr 192" gives you much better quality, but is slower.

And why is the speed so important to you? Youe encode once, but listen to the files maybe thausands of times - where's the problem?

Yes it has.

Stdin/stdout feeding routines are b0rk.

That's why DLL on-yhe-fly is much faster than exe on-the-fly.

I'll point John33 to this thread, maybe he will create a DLL for you with --alt-preset cbr 192 mapped to another configuration.

Roberto.

Oops.  OK, correction: A lot (not all) of the speed difference is coming from the preset (--alt-preset cbr 192 vs plain -b 192).

is on-the-fly DLL same quality as on-the-fly EXE ?

is on-the-fly DLL & EXE same quality as "standard" compression ?

Yes to both. (Given the same settings are used, of course)

is it good to use the latest Alphas from Mitiok's page ?
I think 3.92 seems "old".

I have read of Versions like 3.93a ?!

use latest beta....not alpha.

I thought the Alphas builds are better Betas :-(

I still need anybody who could compile me the "special source code" :-)

Alpha = superexperimental versions that crash every 5 seconds and may not work at all but may have new features that probably wont work correctly anyway

Beta = experimental versions that are still quite buggy, basically alpha versions but with more bugs sorted out and the new features may be working even

okay, here the ALPHAs are working good, but I will turn back to Betas ...

is here nobody who could compile me a special-lame-version ?

try finding a program where you can give the dll the commandline you need.
I think AudioGrabber can do this.
Why do you need the dll anyway?

--alt-preset CBR 192 for standard ?!

Reply #21
because the DLL is MUCH !!!! faster here

--alt-preset CBR 192 for standard ?!

Reply #22
Don't get mad....I don't think anyone is interested in helping you...I'm trying to.
try Audiograbber and see if it can use the DLL correct.
I can't do better than that and I really really doubt anyone would compile another version for you.

I dont know where the problem is:
I was programming in PASCAL years ago ... I have loaded the source-code and pressed COMPILE ... that's it :-)

Who can tell me where to download all the Compilers?
I will do it on my own ...

Hehe. John33 arrived to save you, sir.

He send me a dll that maps --alt-preset cbr 192 tp --alt-preset standard.

Could you send me your mail through PM, so that I can send it to you?

Regards;

Roberto.
