> What settings should be used with the internal encoder to achive the same result as "--alt-preset extreme".
MP3 Preset (LAME 3.92) Excerpts:
These settings are for LAME 3.90 stable and newer versions (Download from mitiok or from Dibrom.)
-------------------------------------------------
CBR 320 (highest possible LAME quality):
-------------------------------------------------
--alt-preset insane
(bitrate: 320 kbit)
-------------------------------------------------
VBR (variable bitrate) settings:
-------------------------------------------------
Very High Quality +
--alt-preset extreme
(bitrates 220-270 kbit/s -- usually averages around 256kbps)
Faster (Very Slightly Lower Quality):
--alt-preset fast extreme
(bitrates roughly the same as above)
Very High Quality
--alt-preset standard
(bitrates 180-220 kbit/s -- usually averages around 192 kbps)
Faster, slightly lower quality possible:
--alt-preset fast standard
(bitrates roughly the same as above)
High Quality, low bitrate
--alt-preset standard -Y
(Compromising, a little bit lower quality than pure standard, but less bitrate (-Y: usually limited up to 16 kHz) )
So....my guess is...
MJ @
Normal = Alt Preset Fast Standard
Normal/High = Alt Preset Standard to Alt Preset Fast Extreme
High= Alt Preset Extreme
320kb/s = Alt Preset Insane
MJ uses LAME 3.92 (most stable & best quality build). Install MJ B393. All encoding options work fine.
