Re: Normalising .mp3's
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 With MAD, you can have it normalise as the MP3's are playing. If you use LAME to encode your MP3 files, you can have LAME normalise them for you, (only works in the command line version as far as I'm aware). Many of the portables I've seen can normalise upon playback though (if you normalise when ripping or encoding) this feature isn't necessary.

Re: Normalising .mp3's
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Yeah, well, rather than use that extra programme (if you're ripping from CD) then why not get the CD ripper to do the job (either that or LAMe if you're using it as the MP3 encoder). Any CD ripping programme worth its salt will have a normalise function (I know that EAC and Easy CD DA Extractor certainly do). At 20:21 13/02/2005 -0700, Raul A.

Re: MSN And Streaming Audio
Hello Tim: First..the one link that I posted was incorrect! But since I posted the message..I got the problem solved! I unknowingly put MSN's "Toolbar" on here; that, apparently was causing my problem with some of these inbeded audio streams. So I did the appropriate thing; I removed MSN's toolbar..and that solved my problem! Thanks to all for listening.
