    Converting flac to mp3

    I have created flac files using dbpoweramp from cds. I am trying to convert them to mp3 for playing in phone/car. I read CBR 320 kbps is the best you can get out of lame. I have two questions.

    1. What should be setting for encoding? I set normal. Is slow makes better quality.


    2. When I convert, I want tool to create exact folder structure as it created flacs


    Thanks for your help.

    1. Potentially slow does better quality, but at this high bitrate I not think it does mych.
    2. Use dynamic naming set to:

    [origpath]\[origfilename]

      Thanks for the reply. I choose "dynamic" with value "[artist]\[artist] - [title]". It created all Madonna songs in one folder for mp3 . For flac, it has two folders Madonna and True Blue. I would like to get same structrure when I convert flac to mp3. Appreciate for help.

        [origpath]\[origfilename]

        Will have exactly the same as the flac source files.

          Excellent. It worked fine. I did not think before litterally to put [origpath]\[origfilename].

          Only missing is it did not copy images folder.jpg

            Use the DSP Effect 'folder.jpg Preserve'
