No More MPC?

You resurrected a dead thread about a dead format. Congratulations.


Dead thread, yes.  Dead format, no.  Musepack has been back in development for quite some time now.

if you are on debian unstable you can follow the progress with rarewares/debian

i've been making snapshot packages of the SVN repository of SV8 binaries, libraries and the xmms plugin.

SV8 now contains a SV8 converter (mpc2sv8) and SV8 cutter (mpccut) in addition to the new SV.

'apt-get install xmms-musepack-sv8 libmpcdec6 musepack' for a full checkout of SV8.

anyone can checkout and use SVN, btw...

TESTING ONLY. NOT FOR NORMAL USE.

I'm still using --quality 10 for Hi-Fi listening instead of WavPack lossy. Maybe if WavPack's lossy mode has been developed with a simple psychoacoustic model / algorythm MPC wouldn't be useful anymore. Musepack isn't already dead, it has first to be a good model for other high bitrate codecs :-P

I'm actually thinking of transcoding my high bitrate files for portable use once I get my new Sansa.  Was going to keep using AAC like on my ipod, but in Rockbox, MPC is so fast, it seems silly to use AAC.
