Hi,
I recently installed Rockbox firmware on my Iriver I-hp 120, and quite stoked about it, its great. I am befuddled though, as to which lossy format to use. I know MPC is supposed to be the best at 128kbps and up, but the MPC plays but does not seek with it. I have seen posts here (at hydrgogen audio) with people saying MPC at insane may as well be considered lossless for listening purposes. Is it that good? If it is, I would go without the seeking for music. Quality AND size are my considerations. I tend to encode my stuff at 160-220 weighing both factors. For my car steareo I used lame at 320. I can definately notice the difference between an ogg and lame at the same bitrates (Radiohead - Karma Police at 160) . I also don't know how a lossy wavpack (which is well supported on the rockbox) compares to OGG or MPC. I'd assume in quality: 1. MPC 2. OGG 3.Wavpack, but thats just an assumption. Would like some opinions on this and maybe an all inclusive lossy format test. |

mpc main advantage is speed of encoding and decoding in my humble "opinion"
if this is incorrect please delete my post without notification mr moderator |
