RE: eac and window-eyes
I should mention this is only happening when eac is in the forground, when in the background I do not even know it is there doing its thing.

configuring eac
Hi, I thought I had things configured correctly to rip mp3 at 320 kbps, but it is not ending up that way. I'm getting an average 192 with vbr. Could some one give me some help setting this part up? I've only did about 20 of my cds and just remembered to check. So now I want to re do them and do them correctly. If there is a better format that the sansa clip and my android phones can play I'll consider it if some one would not mind shooting me some instructions to get it setup and working. It has been a wile since I did this stuff and I did it at 128 kbps mp3 with heck I do not even remember the program, bet on cdex though. Does eac have an update feature to check for latest versions? I have not ran across it. Thanks. To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: pc-audio-unsubscr...@pc-audio.org
RE: eac and window-eyes
Hi, If it is any consolation, performance with we is impacted with spybot search and destroy, easy cd extractor and depending on the task running, goldwave. This doesn't surprise me, at all. If we take a look at process manager, performance, we can see resources utilized by these programmes. Just some thoughts.

RE: configuring eac
I always use FLAC when ripping a CD. I have ripped my CD collection with EAC and using FLAC as the audio encoder. Using a lossless format gives me excellent audio quality when listening on my Sonos connected to a external DAC and hifi amplifier. But the main reason for me to use FLAC and not a lossy format like mp3 is it gives me a lot of options when I of some reason need to convert the file(s) to a different format. Storage is cheap and I have my music collection stored on a file server which is mirrored to a remote server + backup on 2 usb harddrives. -Original Message- From: pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org [mailto:pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org] On Behalf Of Jim Ruby Sent: 8. august 2012 10:25 To: 'PC Audio Discussion List' Subject: RE: configuring eac I figured it out, I did not change the drop down near the top to the correct command line format, still interested in what others are using though.

Re: configuring eac
Jim, What is updated with EAC is the LAME codec rather than the interface. Consider reviewing your version of LAME to determine if it is the latest stable version. As you know, LAME is downloaded and installed separately from EAC, although it should be placed in the EAC program folder to easily find it. I always use the LAME presets for ripping. These presets have been created by the community of LAME developers and end users to easily create the highest quality output by an average audiophile who is not an audio engineer. One of these presets is for 320 CBR. A few years ago, I switched to FLAC for ripping all my audio CD's. I used to rip in 256 VBR MP3, but with dirt cheap storage I can now have the best sounding music preserved for a lifetime. I still use MP3 for ripping audio books and spoken word material.

Re: configuring eac
hello folks! excuse me if I am asking, but what's the latest version of EAC? I'd like to try it out and see if it's better than audio grabber, if it is, then i'll use that instead.

RE: configuring eac
Hi, I''ve done likewise here. I think provided you've sufficient disc space available, initially ripping to flac will offer you more long term flexibility. You can then re-encode the flac files to mp3 for use on portables etc. Best regards, Tim. Bangor, N. Ireland.
