Hi, I'm using LAME v.3.96.1 to convert .m4a files in iTunes using the following settings: --preset cbr 320 -q 0 -ms
My results are unacceptably sluggish performance even with a dual processor Mac running at 2.0GHz. Is there any way to tweak LAME to perform better on this platform without sacrificing quality?
It is slow because you specified -q0. According to the help -q0 will theorically use the highest quality possible, whatever the speed. It is thus perfectly normal that the encoding is slow.
Just use --preset cbr 320 and your encoding will be way faster.
