Additional command line options

I had a friend tell me to use this. I am just curious if these are good settings and if not why and what should I use in place of them.

Additional command line options :-8 -A tukey(0.25) -A gauss(0.1875) -b 4096 -V -T "artist=%a" -T "title=%t" -T "album=%g" -T "date=%y" -T "tracknumber=%n" -T "genre=%m" %s --sector-align

Strictly speaking, there are some switches that are redundant or of little value in the command line, but there's nothing wrong with it other than that.

Most people use something like this:
Code: [Select]
-8 -V -T "artist=%a" -T "title=%t" -T "album=%g" -T "date=%y" -T "tracknumber=%n" -T "genre=%m" %s

The drive settings and EAC options are ok, but you should find out if your drive caches or not. If it doesn't you can safely uncheck the option for "Drive caches audio data", which will result in faster ripping. Read the EAC Drive Options guide in the wiki for more information on that.
