Full Version: Lame ACM and switches

Got a very important question here. Is it possible (and how to make it) to set the switches in ACM version of LAME (any version). Preferably the -q and --lowpass switches. I've found the lame_acm.xml file with config. But don't know how to edit it (what to write in).
Hope to find the answer here. Thanks for them all.

While searching for information on lame_acm.xml I found this unanswered thread. Can someone shed some light on how the LAME ACM uses this file?

CODE
<lame_acm>
    <encodings default="Current">
        <config name="Current">
            <Smart use="true" />
            <Copyright use="true" />
            <CRC use="true" />
            <Original use="false" />
            <Private use="false" />
            <Channel mode="Joint-stereo" />
            <ABR use="true" min="88" max="160" step="6" />
        </config>
    </encodings>
</lame_acm>


In particular, I am not sure what the <Smart> setting is for, and why CRC is turned on by default (isn't it wasting bits to store the CRC?). Thanks.

Set it to false and see if anything happens. And yes the crc wastes something like 1kbps.

It is my current understanding that this determines what ABR bitrates there are. That should provide them for 88kbps (step up 6), 94kbps (up 6 again), 100kbps,..... up untill 160kbps is reached.
