Shawn, which e-mail client do you use? It doesn't wrap the text, and I always have to cut and paste your e-mails to a text editor to read them... Isn't there any work around? May be you can try pressing enter after each line. -- MP3 ENCODER mailing list ( http://geek.rcc.se/mp3encoder/ )

Sorry about that - I just fixed the version number of the 3.70 CVS branch. (I think it was correct in the release though). And yes, 3.69beta is identical to 3.70 Mark > Stable Version LAME 3.70, is it already complete ? > > Newest "version.h" in the CVS lame3_70 branch (Rev. 1.12.2.1.2.1.4

Stable Version LAME 3.70, is it already complete ? Newest "version.h" in the CVS lame3_70 branch (Rev. 1.12.2.1.2.1.4.5) is still Version 3.69 I Also found that previous revision contains Version 3.70. Can I think, Version 3.69 is as same as 3.70 ? regards. ---

[MP3 ENCODER] Command line arguments

2000-04-12 Thread Shawn Riley
I just had an idea about command line args. Would it be feasible to have a command line such as - x:\xx\lame.exe --compression 6.0 in.wav out.mp3 - to automatically select a stereo mode, bitrate, filter option, etc. based on how much the file should be compressed? You could just make Lame choose

2000-04-12 Thread Rolf Hainich
It appears to me that there are more versions than the 3 mentioned. The Cool Edit plugin has at least different options and encoding speeds compared to the Nero plugin. It wouldn't be a surprise to me if the FhG people never had a clear marketing concept. Regards -- Von:Jaroslav Luke
