Flac "high" encoding slow

September 16, 2004, 02:38 PM

Hello all,

I have been trying to use dbpoweramp to encode my collection in flac. But there seems to be some problems.

- On 'high' compression compressing a CD takes over 45 minutes, it should take just over ten.
- The 'high' compressed file is actually bigger then the same song compressed on medium.

Is the high setting the same as encoding a flac with -8 or --best?

I have tried the latest stable and beta versions and both seem to have this issue. Any ideas?

Also, another thread on this same issue is here:

Great software, keep up the good work!

Flac in dbpoweramp will be rewritten to mirror the 1..8 settings.
