I'm currently facing the same problem. I added the libFLAC++ libraries to my MSVC application. I implemented the same quality levels (0-8) as used in the FLAC frontend application. But the resulting files are remarkable different between my application and the FLAC frontend (although using the same settings).
for example: FLAC frontend (quality = 8) -------------------------------- FLAC_vendor = reference libFLAC 1.1.1 20041001 bitrate = 1047 samplerate = 44100 channels = 2 bitspersample = 16 codec = FLAC ---------- 4831008 samples @ 44100Hz File size: 14 334 137 bytes My Application (quality = 8) ------------------------------- FLAC_vendor = reference libFLAC 1.1.1 20041001 bitrate = 1314 samplerate = 44100 channels = 2 bitspersample = 16 codec = FLAC ---------- 4831008 samples @ 44100Hz File size: 17 995 449 bytes >Hello all, > >I've been writing a basic encoder using libFLAC++.
