Using LAME and EAC again after a few years! Options

[DJAd]

Hi all,

Been having a read about before I ask. I've installed EAC and just getting LAME setup.

Before I used the "best mp3 guide" but the site seems to no longer exist.

From memory I used the old "--preset fast standard" command line switch.

I will use the new LAME 3.98.2

Now from what I understand this is no longer needed as it has been replaced with the newer LAME versions?

What command line now does one need? I think "standard" setting is fine for me. The results before were fantastic, that's why I want to use EAC and LAME again.

From the Wiki I read I can just use:

-V2

Is that all I need to put in the command line?

What is --vbr-new ???

Then I found this guide:

http://www.uberstandard.org/ ---------------- Is this up to date?

Which says use this command line:

-V2 %s %d

I just wonder if someone could set me on the right path.....

I'm just after good old "preset standard" from back in the day.

Thanks for the help. :-)

I didn't notice that, good point. Yes, I think it was recommended before being made standard. It'd be helpful if someone with editing privileges removed that so it can't confuse anyone else!
