MP3 - General / Re: Resurrecting/Preserving the Helix MP3 encoder
Last post by john33 -
The compilles i did with GCC 13.2.0 should create the same files in size.
It is only when i use AVX or fast-math that includes -funsafe-math-optimizations the output changes.
The rarewares x64 compile for example creates the same files as when i use fast-math.
I attach a compile that has both versions with exactly the same settings but fast-math if someone wants to check.
The question is if such optimization at some point changes the sound. I am no expert here but think to remember there once was a problem with a lame compile because of some compiler option.
I do indeed have fast-math enabled on both x64 compiles. I too recall a lame issue, I think with a particular Intel compiler option, but I don't recall which option, and it was in any case some many years ago.

Case made a nice tool to scan for Truepeaks and number of clipped samples which integrates with the Replaygain context menu.

Would you consider to add this utility to be selectable in the button_automation_tags.js script?

Thanks for this tool.

Can you make a small adjustment in the "Scan true-peaks and positions (as albums)" so that it writes the total amount of clipped samples found in tracks in a field like TRUEPEAK_SCANNER_CLIPPED_SAMPLES_ALBUM?

I'd like to be able to show this value in the group header per album.

I dont know when this issue started, as I just have been upgrading over what I had installed. But today I fresh installed preview 2.2. I cannot get it to scan my external USB drive. It says monitoring all the time. Tried numerous times. I installed a fresh install of 2.1.3 to see if it was on my end, but that scanned straight away. Using x86
