    Re: Opus codec

    Found myself wondering the same thing with all the recent news here http://www.xiph.org/press/2012/rfc-6716/

    Opus appears very promising across almost everything based on the listening tests...

    Dither refers to the addition of somewhat "random" noise to a digital audio signal or file to sonically account for rounding errors (distortion) that can be introduced when converting audio from a...

    Re: Request: New DSP - Copy Tag

    Don't know if Spoon will get around to this or not (think someone else was asking about it in another thread as well), but until he does I think you can accomplish something similar with MP3Tag.

    Re: CD Ripper won't work over Remote Desktop

    Another thought....

    Have you tried running the remote desktop client in console mode?

    I think, sometimes this is needed for things like running native sound drivers and using specific devices...

    Re: Rip to AAC (Nero) is not gapless

    Not meaning to hijack the thread, but I'm scratching my head a bit here.

    Thinking I must have been out of touch for awhile.

    I thought that AAC could never be completely gapless, and that...

    The closest thing I can think of to what you want to do is one of the MusicBrainz taggers:

    I know almost nothing about WMA or WMAL, so please excuse me if the following shows some ignorance of these formats/codecs; but as a general rule, I would say the sampling frequency you should use...

    Current version of winamp (5.54) does exactly what you suggest. Allows album-based views that treat compilations beautifully as long as you populate the album artist tag with a common value like,...

    Mine's much simpler than most I think (maybe just a simpler mind?? :smile2:)

    Re: why not choose gracenote?

    Well...

    I think the key term in freeDB is "free". IIRC, Gracenote requires someone to pay a license fee...either the software vendor or the user.

    I think it's just fine that dMC allows a free...

    But doesn't this transcode everything to mp3 though? IIRC that was what SlimServer did the last time that I used it when playing via http or softsqueeze.

  12. Re: Different CRC with Winamp/iTunes than dbpoweramp

    Just curious....

    Would a better comparison be CRC's between dMC Ripper and EAC? I think EAC *does* use drive offset...right?

    Re: BAND tag vs. ALBUM ARTIST in CD Ripper

    I've noticed this as well, but I'm not so sure it's a bug or misuse of the tag??

    It seems to depend on the format and type of tags involved. I've noticed that both dBPoweramp and Winamp put...

    Re: Ripping to NAS drive

    It's probably the write speed to the NAS. I keep my library on a NAS also (usb drives attached to an unslung NSLU), but Windows access via Samba is quite slow.

    So I always rip to a locally...

    Re: Is there a better way of doing this?

    The only other option I can think of would still involve some other tools and multiple steps.

    You could rip the CD to .wav and use WavGain to apply the album gain adjustments. (I think the newest...

    Are you saying that the volume normalize DSP uses the same gain/attenuation algorithm (based on rms AFAIK??) that ReplayGain uses?

    Can this be done with the "Run External" DSP? I haven't tried this myself, but MP3Gain does run from a command line, so I don't see why it wouldn't work.
