Ripping Cds... - Page 2

The stand-alone Lame compiled for Win32 in an .exe and .dll form can be found here:

http://home.pi.be/~mk442837/

It is a command-line tool by default as it's native to UNIX but the DLL provides an interface that EAC can use. However, it provides nowhere NEAR the control the command line tool does. Isn't that always the case?

If anyone is curious I rip EAC to waves to a Samba share on my Linux system and use Lame that I compiled over there from the source site. Further I use a perl script I wrote to do batch encoding and I use a perl module to write the ID3v1 and ID3v2 tags as I can't ever find anything flexible enough.

I'm more than happy to share my perl script whith anyone that wants it but be warned, I will not support it and your on your own if you have no idea about perl or Unix.

I'm using RazorLame with --alt-preset standard -Y and it sounds great and has a file size that's only a bit larger than 160kbps CBR, but it encodes soooo slow. It's like it encodes the songs at 1x. Anyone know if this is normal? I would use EAC, but it freezes my computer whenever I try ripping a CD (or even just a single track). I use CDex and it works fine for me, I just wish that RazorLame would rip faster

Try --alt-preset fast standard instead of regular standard.
