Hi,
I just started transcoding my FLAC albums (I'll save them) to Ogg. I first tested q 5, q 6 and then q 4 and I can't tell any difference between them. But I cant believe that 128kbit files are absolutely transparent? I know it's very subjective, but I wanted to ask you if it's also transparent to you or if you hear any artifacts? Greets Edit: I use AoTuV beta 5 This post has been edited by Be Positive: Dec 26 2006, 11:54 |

-q4 is intransparent to me using aoTuV b5.7 even with my crappy old hardware setup. I'd never use something below q6. I need a big buffer because in the future I am going to have a better soundcard and headphones.
