Well first of all im new here, so please forgive me if i am posting in the wrong section.
Well due to an unexpected hard drive failure i have lost all my CD's which i had encoded as 320 kbit MP3. I had been wanting to re encode them to OGG, im using EAC with Garf's GT3 Encoder, my only problem is that i dont know which quality value is comparable to the 320 kbit, also i am using the following the following command line

CODE

-a "%a" -t "%t" -l "%g" -d "%y" -N "%n" -G "%m" %s

Could someone please explain what this means ( i know some of it is for the vorbis tags, but im not completely sure what some of it is), and links to alternate command line entrys would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance

hmm....It is subjective. With Garf's GT3b1, you start with q 5 and if it doesnt sound too good to you, then move up. For me, q 5 sounds pretty nice. But for audiophiles, they're not even that happy with q 9 or q 10
