<br />
== Platforms ==<br />
<br />
foobar2000 has been written specifically for the Windows platform, and there are no plans to port it to any others. However, although not officially supported, it is known to run on [http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=54933 Linux] and [http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=77261 Mac OS X] through Wine and WineBottler, respectively.<br />
<br />
== Features ==<br />
* Powerful open component architecture allowing third-party developers to extend functionality of the player, including the ability to fully replace the user interface.<br />
* Full Unicode support: File names, user interface, tagging, etc.<br />
* [[ReplayGain]] support: Both playback and writing ReplayGain information to file tags.<br />
* [[Gapless playback]].<br />
* Advanced [[tagging]] capabilities - through built-in [[foobar2000:Properties|Properties dialog]] and various optional tagging-related components.<br />
* Built-in [[foobar2000:Preferences:Media Library|Media Library]] functionality.<br />

<div>= Introduction =<br />
'''Musepack''' is a lossy audio compression scheme created by Andree Buschmann. He started work on the codec in 1998 (then called MP+) because he was unsatisfied with the audio quality of MP3 codecs at the time. It is strongly based on the [[MPEG-1]] Layer-2 ([[MP2]]) algorithms, with 32 subbands of the same bandwidth, but with several significant improvements. Musepack is optimized for "transparency". The format doesn't compete well at lower, 'streaming' bitrates such as 32/48/64kbps. This is due to MPC being a [[subband]] [[codec]] as well as the fact that very little optimization has gone into such low [[bitrate]]s. However, as can be seen in various 128kbit/s listening tests (see below), despite the fact that MPC has been optimized little for such bitrates it is in the same class of other modern competitors such as [[AAC]] and (Ogg) [[Vorbis]].<br />
<br />
== Pros ==<br />
* Suffers from different "problem cases" than most other formats (less pre-echo)<br />
* Very fast encoding/decoding<br />
* Designed to be very good by default at --standard setting.<br />
* Open source<br />
* Portable playback by Pocket-PCs, Palm OS-based and Windows CE/Windows Mobile-based devices, even Smartphones, see <s>http://tcpmp.corecodec.org</s><br />
* Portable playback on digital audio players with Rockbox support, see http://www.rockbox.org<br />
* Support & development forum at http://www.Musepack.net<br />
<br />
== Cons ==<br />
* Marginal support (yet) on portable players<br />
* No support for [[sampling rate]]s above 48khz<br />
<br />
= Technical details =<br />
== Supported input formats ==<br />
* channels: 1 to 8<br />
* bit depths: 1 to 32 bit linear [[PCM]]<br />
* sample rates: 32kHz, 37.8kHz, 44.1kHz, 48kHz (44.1 and 48 are highly tuned)<br />
* [[WAV]], raw [[PCM]], a lot of [[lossless]] compressed audio formats like [[FLAC]], [[LPAC]], [[Monkey's_Audio|APE]], [[OptimFROG]], [[SZIP]] and Shorten ([[SHN]])<br />

== Listening test involving MPC ==<br />
* [[Listening Tests]] page<br />
* <s> ff123's 128kbit/s group listening test</s><br />
* <s> ff123's second 128kbit/s group listening test</s><br />
* <s> rjamorim's 128kbit/s test</s><br />
<br />
Please note that some of these tests, while valid, used encoder versions which have now been superseded. You should make your own decision about the comparative quality of MPC, listening to clips of music in the style you prefer.<br />
<br />
Also note that these are tests at low bitrates; an area where MPC is not particularly optimized. The encoder was designed by the author to be very good at the --standard setting, thus little to no low [[bitrate]] tuning has gone into the [[codec]], opposite to that of [[AAC]], (Ogg) [[Vorbis]], [[WMA]] and others which focus more on this region. However, as can be seen in the various listening test pages, MPC competes surprisingly well with the rest of them.<br />

'''VLC''' is a software project, which produces free and open source software for multimedia, released under the GNU General Public License.<br />

<br />
== Features ==<br />
* VLC is popular for its ability to play the video content of incomplete, unfinished, or damaged video downloads before the files have been fully downloaded. (For example, files still downloading via [[BitTorrent (protocol)|BitTorrent]], [[eMule]], or [[Gnutella]]). It also plays [[m2t]] MPEG Transport Streams (.TS) files while they are still being digitized from an [[HDV]] camera via a [[FireWire]] cable, making it possible to monitor the video as it is being played. This is because it is a packet-based player. <br />
* The player also has the ability to use libcdio to access [[.iso]] files so that the user can play files on a [[disk image]], even if the user's operating system does not have the capability of working directly with .iso images.<br />
* VLC supports all codecs and all file formats supported by [[FFmpeg]]. This means that [[VOB|DVD Video]] and [[MPEG-4]] playback as well as support for [[Ogg]] and [[Matroska]] (MKV) file formats work "out of the box". However, this feature is not unique to VLC, as any player using the FFmpeg libraries, including [[MPlayer]] and [[xine-lib]]-based players, can play those formats without need for external codecs. VLC also supports codecs that are not included in FFmpeg.<br />
* VLC is one of the [[free software]] and [[open source]] DVD players that ignores [[DVD region code#Software DVD players|DVD region coding]], making it a region free player, even on locked RPC-2 firmware.<br />
* VLC media player has some filters that can distort, rotate, split, [[deinterlace]], mirror videos, create display walls, or add a logo overlay. It can also produce video output as [[ASCII art]].<br />
* VLC media player can play [[High-definition video|high definition]] recordings of [[D-VHS]] tapes duplicated to a computer using CapDVHS.exe. This offers another way to archive all D-VHS tapes with the DRM copy freely tag.<br />
* Using a [[FireWire]] connection from cable boxes to computers, VLC can stream live, unencrypted content to a monitor or HDTV.<br />
* VLC media player can display the playing video as the [[Computer wallpaper|desktop wallpaper]], like [[Windows DreamScene]], but this feature is not currently available on [[Linux]].<br />
* VLC media player can do screencasts and record the desktop.<br />
* On Microsoft Windows, VLC also supports the Direct Media Object (DMO) framework and can therefore make use of some third-party [[Dynamic-link library|DLLs]].<br />
* VLC can be installed and run directly from a flash or other external drive.<br />
* VLC can be extended through scripting. It uses the [[Lua (programming language)|Lua]] scripting language.<br />

}}<br />
'''Free Lossless Audio Codec''' ('''FLAC''') is a codec for lossless audiocompression.<br />
Grossly oversimplified, FLAC is similar to [[MP3]], but [[lossless]], meaning that audio is compressed in FLAC without any loss in quality. This is similar to how Zip works, except with FLAC you will get much better compression because it is designed specifically for audio, and you can play back compressed FLAC files in your favorite player (or your car or home stereo, if supported) just like you would an MP3 file.<br />
<br />
== General aspects of the format ==<br />
FLAC is freely available and supported on most operating systems, including Windows, UNIX (Linux, *BSD, Solaris, OS X, IRIX), BeOS, OS/2, and Amiga. There are build systems for autotools, MSVC, Watcom C, and Project Builder.<br />
<br />
The FLAC project consists of:<br />
* the stream format<br />
* reference encoders and decoders in library form<br />
* flac, a command-line program to encode and decode FLAC files<br />
* metaflac, a command-line metadata editor for FLAC files<br />
* input plugins for various music players<br />
<br />
When it's said that FLAC is ''free'', it means more than just that it is available at no cost. It means that the specification of the format is fully open to the public to be used for any purpose, although the FLAC project reserves the right to set the FLAC specification and certify compliance. It also means that neither the FLAC format nor any of the implemented encoding/decoding methods are covered by any known patent. And it means that all the source code is available under open-source licenses. It is the first truly open and free lossless audio format.<br />
<br />
== Features ==<br />
* '''Lossless:''' The encoding of audio (PCM) data incurs no loss of information, and the decoded audio is bit-for-bit identical to what went into the encoder. Each frame contains a 16-bit CRC of the frame data for detecting transmission errors. The integrity of the audio data is further insured by storing an MD5 signature of the original unencoded audio data in the file header, which can be compared against later during decoding or testing.<br />
* '''Fast:''' FLAC is asymmetric in favor of decode speed. Decoding requires only integer arithmetic, and is much less compute-intensive than for most perceptual codecs. Real-time decode performance is easily achievable on even modest hardware.<br />
* '''Hardware support:''' Because of FLAC's free reference implementation, low decoding complexity and popularity, FLAC has relatively widespread hardware support compared to other lossless formats.<br />
* '''Streamable:''' Each FLAC frame contains enough data to decode that frame. FLAC does not even rely on previous or following frames. FLAC uses sync codes and CRCs (similar to MPEG and other formats), which, along with framing, allow decoders to pick up in the middle of a stream with a minimum of delay.<br />
* '''Seekable:''' FLAC supports fast sample-accurate seeking. Not only is this useful for playback, it makes FLAC files suitable for use in editing applications.<br />
* '''Flexible metadata:''' New metadata blocks can be defined and implemented in future versions of FLAC without breaking older streams or decoders. Currently there are metadata types for tags, cue sheets, and seek tables. Applications can write their own APPLICATION metadata once they register an ID.<br />
* '''Suitable for archiving:''' FLAC is an open format, and there is no generation loss if you need to convert your data to another format in the future. In addition to the frame CRCs and MD5 signature, flac has a verify option that decodes the encoded stream in parallel with the encoding process and compares the result to the original, aborting with an error if there is a mismatch.<br />
* '''Convenient CD archiving:''' FLAC has a ''cue sheet'' metadata block for storing a CD table of contents and all track and index points. For instance, you can rip a CD to a single file, then import the CD's extracted cue sheet while encoding to yield a single file representation of the entire CD. If your original CD is damaged, the cue sheet can be exported later in order to burn an exact copy.<br />
* '''Error resistant:''' Because of FLAC's framing, stream errors limit the damage to the frame in which the error occurred, typically a small fraction of a second worth of data. Contrast this with some other lossless codecs, in which a single error destroys the remainder of the stream.<br />
<br />
== Pros ==<br />
* Portable to many systems<br />
* Source open and freely licenced<br />
* Hardware support (PhatBox, Kenwood MusicKeg, Rio Karma, etc. See below)<br />
* Streaming support<br />
* Extremely fast decoding<br />
* Supports multichannel and high resolution streams<br />
* Supports [[ReplayGain]]<br />
* Supports cue-sheet (with some limitations)<br />
* Gaining wide use as successor to [[Shorten]]<br />
<br />
== Cons ==<br />
* Compresses less efficiently than other popular modern compressors ([[Monkey's Audio]], [[OptimFROG]])<br />
* Higher compression modes slow, for little gain over the default setting.<br />

== Frequently asked questions ==<br />
''Question:'' Does the compression level affect decompression speed?<br />
<br />
''Short Answer'': No.<br />
<br />
''Long Answer'': In truth, the compression level does affect the decompression speed, but the difference between the various compress levels can barely be measured and is too small to be noticed, even on low-end machines.<br />
<br />
<br />
''Question:'' What is the best compression level for encoding my music?<br />
<br />
''Short Answer'': The default setting, 5.<br />
<br />
''Long Answer'': Encoding at the default setting will give the best balance between compression and encoding speed. Encoding at 8 can more than quadruple the encoding time, while having an insignificant effect on compression.<br />

<div>=Encoding from Wav to AAC using Psytel AACenc=<br />
<br />
Tools you'll need for this tutorial:<br />
<br />
Psytel AACenc AAC encoder (File Out of date)<br />
<br />
Optional (but recommended):<br />
<br />
[http://members.home.nl/w.speek/ivan&menno.htm Ivan & Menno] AACenc frontend by Speek<br />
<br />
Psyteldrop AACenc frontend by layer3maniac (File Out of date)<br />
<br />
<br />
==Getting started==<br />
<br />
# From the AACenc package, uncompress aacenc.exe and ia32math.dll to some folder (e.g: C:\Music\AACenc)<br />
# If you plan to use one of the frontends, decompress it to the same folder.<br />
<br />
<br />
==Encoding with frontends (recommended)==<br />
<br />
===Encoding with Psyteldrop===<br />
<br />
# Run Psyteldrop<br />
# Right click on it -> Options -> Programs -> Set encoder. Browse to AACenc's location and select it<br />
<br />
:: [[Image:Aacguide_Psyteldrop01.png|Psyteldrop screen shot 1]]<br />
<br />
# Right click -> Quality -> VBR -> Normal <br />
<br />
:: [[Image:Aacguide_Psyteldrop02.png|Psyteldrop screen shot 2]]<br />
<br />
# Now, select some WAV files and drop them over the Psyteldrop window. After some time, you'll have a bunch of AAC files in the same folder as the original wav files. Now you can delete the wav files.<br />
<br />
<br />
===Encoding with Ivan&Menno===<br />
<br />
# Run Ivan&Menno<br />
# On the options screen, select AACenc as encoder<br />
: type -normal at options<br />
: select format "aac" <br />
<br />
:: [[Image:Aacguide_Speek01.png|Speek frontend]]<br />
<br />
# Drag'n'drop the WAV files at the "files" box, or use the "Add files" button<br />
# Click encode. After some time, you'll have a bunch of AAC files in the same folder as the original wav files. Now you can delete the wav files.<br />
<br />
<br />
==Encoding from the command line (not recommended)==<br />
<br />
# Run the Windows command prompt program<br />
# Go to the directory where AACenc is (E.G: 'cd C:\Music\AACenc')<br />
# Run the command line as follows:<br />
:; aacenc -normal -if "C:\music\tracks\file name.wav"<br />
: (replacing 'C:\music\tracks\file name.wav' with the path to your WAV file) <br />
<br />
[[Image:Aacguide_AACenc01.png|center|thumb|600px|AACenc command line]]<br />
<br />
# After encoding finishes, you can delete the wav file<br />
:; del "C:\music\tracks\file name.wav"<br />
# To leave the command prompt, type 'exit'<br />
<br />
<br />
Obs: If you want to use advanced AACenc switches, check this <s>document</s> (File Out of date)<br />

<div>The creation of Ivan Dimkovic (who now works on Nero AAC), PsyTEL AAC was one of the first AAC encoders. Its <br />
multi-channel support has bugs that make it unusable, but it's 2 channel had the best quality available in its day. <br />
Since the implementation of Nero AAC, this codec has become obselete. It's is now outclassed by both Nero AAC <br />
and iTunes.<br />
<br />
==Usability (Psytel aacenc/fastenc)==<br />
<br />
; -tape<br />
; -radio<br />
; -internet<br />
; -streaming<br />
; -normal<br />
; -extreme<br />
; -archive<br />
; -ultra<br />
<br />
<br />
For music encoding. The quality ranges from -tape (lowest [VBR] quality) to -ultra (highest [VBR] quality). Ultra <br />
is considered overkill for most audio tracks, i.e: shouldn't be used except for extremely difficult music signals. <br />
Example: aacenc -extreme -if "audio file.wav"<br />
<br />
==Encoder switches (Psytel aacenc/fastenc)==<br />
<br />
; -if <br />
: Input filename. The name of the track to be encoded (must be a .wav file)<br />
<br />
; -of <br />
: Output filename. May be omitted, because encoder will automatically set best output file name.<br />
<br />
; -br <br />
: BitRate switch. Sets the number of bits utilized per second for the encoding process. Example: aacenc -br 192 -if "audio file.wav"<br />
<br />
; -vbrhi <br />
: High quality [VBR] mode. Can be used with -br switch to select base BitRate. If -br is not specified, it takes as default 64kbps/channel. Example: aacenc -br 192 -vbrhi -if "audio file.wav"<br />
<br />
; -vr <br />
: Lower quality [VBR] mode. Recommended for internet streaming. Example: aacenc -vr -if "audio file.wav"<br />
<br />
; -c <br />
: LowPassFilter cut-off (in hertz). Not recommended. Example: aacenc -br 128 -c 15995 -if "audio file.wav"<br />
<br />
; -qual <br />
: Encoder quality level (1 to 9). 9 is usually taken as default, but you can use smaller numbers if you need high speed and high quality isn't essential. Example: aacenc -br 192 -qual 9 -if "audio file.wav"<br />
<br />
; -adif <br />
: Use adif instead of adts (default) header. For compatibility with some decoder software and hardware players. Example: aacenc -br 192 -adif -if "audio file.wav"<br />
<br />
; -nh <br />
: No headers (raw iso aac stream). For decoder compatibility, and can improve. Example: aacenc -br 192 -nh -if "audio file.wav"<br />
<br />
; -profile "x" <br />
: Choose iso aac encoding profile:<br />
:: 0 - low complexity (default, recommended)<br />
:: 1 - main (not recommended, buggy)<br />
:: 2 - main ltp (mpeg-4 only)<br />
<br />
: Only lc profile is playable on hardware players so far. Example: aacenc -br 192 -profile 2 -if "audio file.wav"<br />
<br />
; -ihsc <br />
: Improved human speech coding. Best for human voice encoding. Not recommended for low Bitrates or [CBR] coding. Example: aacenc -vbrhi -br 192 -ihsc -if "audio file.wav"<br />
<br />
; -low_ath <br />
: Tells encoder to use highest sensitivity threshold of audibility. Not recommended on Bitrates lower than 192kbps. Example: aacenc -br 192 -low_ath -if "audio file.wav"<br />
<br />
; -pns <br />
: (perceptual noise substitution) - Improves the quality at very low Bitrates. Should be used only at 64kbps or less. Example: aacenc -br 56 -pns -if "audio file.wav"<br />

<br />
'''MediaMonkey''' is a Windows-based media player/library, with built-in file tagger & organizer, [[Compact Disc Digital Audio|Audio CD]] ripper/burner (limited speed on free version), Data CD burner (also limited speed on free version), [[transcoding]] tool, [[ReplayGain]] tool, and lots others, all in an integrated user interface natively themed as a (skinnable) media library.<br />
<br />
It maintains its library in a database that is compatible with '''Microsoft Access''' database format, and as such, the database entries can be changed by using Access or other compatible programs. However, it also stores most of its information into the media files' [[tags]] ([[ID3v1]], [[ID3v2]], [[Vorbis comment]], [[WMA]], [[APEv2]], [[WAV]] and [[AAC]] tags are supported), thus ensuring usability with other media players.<br />
<br />
MediaMonkey also provides auto-tagging/auto-renaming support, in which tag information are deduced from file's path and name (or alternatively through Amazon which support tagging/adding [[Album Art]]), or reversely, renaming (and relocating) files based on their tag or path information.<br />
<br />
Finally, MediaMonkey also support integration with various portable DAPs, including [[Apple iPod]], [[iRiver]], and [[Creative Labs]] devices. Latest MediaMonkey 3.2 added support for [[Palm Pre]]<br />
<br />
== Supported Formats ==<br />
* [[Free Lossless Audio Codec]] (FLAC)<br />
* [[Monkey's Audio]] (APE)<br />
* [[MP3]]<br />
* [[Musepack]] (MPC)<br />
* (Ogg) [[Vorbis]]<br />
* [[WAV]]<br />
* [[Windows Media Audio]] (WMA)<br />
* [[AAC]] *Version 3.x and Above<br />
<br />
Additional formats may be supported through Winamp input plugins (see below)<br />
<br />
== Extensibility ==<br />
MediaMonkey supports most Winamp's input, output, DSP, general, and visualization plugins.<br />
<br />
In addition, MediaMonkey provides [http://www.mediamonkey.com/wiki/index.php/Scripting scripting interfaces], so it is scriptable (built-in support for JavaScript/VB Script) and also controllable by external applications (through Winamp Compatible Messages or OLE Automatization Server/COM+).<br />
<br />
Finally, MediaMonkey is skinnable. Many MediaMonkey users have developed various skins for it, which you can find in the [http://www.mediamonkey.com/wiki/index.php/Skinning MediaMonkey Wiki].<br />
<br />
== Editions ==<br />
The [http://www.mediamonkey.com/product.htm free (Standard) version], is available for free with some restrictions .<br />
<br />
[http://www.mediamonkey.com/product_gold.htm The Gold version] – The Gold Edtions bring you additional features which you are required to buy a Gold Licence. <br />

}}<br />
<br />
= Introduction =<br />
'''MP3packer''' is a program which can rearrange the data within an [[MP3]] to fulfill specific goals. By default, the program generates the smallest MP3 possible (with the least padding). However, many people also use it to turn [[Variable Bitrate|VBR]] files into [[Constant Bitrate|CBR]] for use with players which don't support VBR.<br />
<br />
It can save space by storing frame data in the smallest possible frame. Usually MP3s are already stored in the most efficient way possible. However, for high-bitrate CBR files (like -b 320) there can be a lot of wasted space.<br />
<br />
== Features ==<br />
* Can make CBR ''-b 320'' files up to 10&nbsp;% smaller [[lossless]]ly (depending on the [[LAME]] version used)<br />
* Squeezes out all the padding it can from any MP3 (Will not produce a larger file, unless you use the -b switch or something goes wrong)<br />
* Writes valid LAME [[Xing]] header for proper VBR seeking<br />
* Provides the ability to losslessly turn VBR files into larger CBR files to humor players which can't handle VBR<br />
* Includes a brute-force compression optimization option to further compress files<br />
* Supports Unicode file names and paths<br />
* Supports encoding an entire directory of files<br />
* Multi-core support<br />
* 64-bit support (precompiled Windows executable builds for 32 and 64 bit available)<br />
* There is a limitation in that it cannot repack Freeformat MP3s<br />
<br />
== How It Works ==<br />
'''-z switch:'''<br />
The default operation is to choose the minimum frame size to fit the data and will also minimize the data size. This is completely lossless, and is equivalent to decompressing a ZIP file and recompressing with a more aggressive setting. It attempts to minimize the data by doing a brute-force search for the optimal parameters, so it takes much longer than it would normally.<br />
<br />
'''-b switch:'''<br />
Setting the -b switch will set the minimum bitrate for each frame. Using this switch will make more room in small frames for other frames' data, so it will also generally reduce the maximum bitrate as well. There is no direct control over the maximum bitrate, since there may simply be too much data to fit into a smaller frame. The exact format of the parameter is a bit odd: if the bitrate given is a valid frame bitrate, the minimum bitrate is dithered between padded and unpadded frames. If the bitrate is one more than a valid frame bitrate, then the minimum is a padded frame of bitrate one less than the given. Anything else is rounded up to the next highest unpadded bitrate. <br />
<br />
'''-r, -R switches:'''<br />
After mp3packer has chosen an output bitrate for a given frame, there is generally a range of positions to put the actual data. The data can be packed as much as possible into the previous frame, or it can be set to fill up the current frame as much as possible. Usually it is best to put as much as possible into previous frames, since this will maximize the space available for any subsequent frames. However, if the minimum bitrate is adds enough padding, there is no reason to cram the data into previous frames; it's just going to move around the padding.<br />
The default is to pack as far behind as possible if the -b switch is not given, since there is usually no problem filling up the frames. If a minimum bitrate is specified then the frames are pushed as far up as possible without affecting any of the following frames.<br />
The -r switch will attempt to always push data as far up as possible, even if a minimum bitrate is not specified. Conversely, the -R switch will push the data into previous frames as possible<br />
<br />
== Operating Systems ==<br />
* Windows<br />
* Linux<br />
* Platforms with an OCaml port<br />
<br />
== WinMP3Packer ==<br />
Created by Chris Close (psyllium) '''WinMP3Packer''' is a graphical front-end to the mp3packer.exe program. It is a Windows only program that requires Microsoft .NET Runtime version 2.0 and has been tested on Windows 2000 & XP (XP SP2).<br />
<br />
The latest version allows the user to upgrade the mp3packer version by adding the mp3packer.exe into main WinMP3Packer directory.<br />
<br />

<hr />
<div>Since what the [[MP3]] standard really defines is a decoder, there should be no such thing as a better or a worse MP3 decoder. As long as a decoder is accurate, it'll output the expected quality.<br />
<br />
All the most popular decoders these days output accurate enough streams. These include:<br />
<br />
* [[Winamp]]'s FhG decoder<br />
* [http://www.mpg123.de mpg123], probably one of the most popular decoders, also used in [[foobar2000]], Otachan's winamp plugin, [[LAME]] and countless other MP3 players<br />
* [http://mpadec.sourceforge.net/ MPAdec], a very accurate decoder based on mpg123<br />
* [http://koti.welho.com/hylinen/apollo/ Apollo], the most mathematically accurate decoder<br />
* [http://www.underbit.com/products/mad/ MAD], another very precise GPLd MP3 decoder<br />
** A MAD input-plugin for WinAmp is available in [http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=46824&hl= this HA thread]<br />
<br />
Using any of the above should be enough for all purposes. Quality differences among them are insignificant.<br />
<br />
Older decoders could provide bad quality, due mostly to encoder implementation errors. Such bad encoders include Winamp before version 2.666 (using Playmedia's low quality AMP engine), decoders based on old XAudio, and Digideck. Also, some older decoders did not work well with VBR streams.<br />

<hr />
<div>'''Audio Stream Input/Output''' ('''ASIO''') is a low latency audio application programming interface designed by Steinberg for high speed communications between audio hardware and software, such as the the interaction between MIDI Controllers and MIDI Sequencers needed by musicians and studio engineers. ASIO can be used to access multiple sound I/O simultanously.<br />
<br />
=== Realtime Recording/Playback ===<br />
In order to create a more direct path to the hardware, and also make the hardware more responsive to the software's needs, Steinberg of Germany (developer of the popular Cubase MIDI sequencer and Nuendo digital audio workstation) developed Audio Stream In/Out (ASIO) technology. ASIO has made its mark as the driver standard for delivering low-latency transfer of digital audio. This means that hardware supporting an ASIO driver is able to deliver low-latency recording and monitoring to hard disk.<br />
<br />
The low latency made possible by ASIO, for example, allows you to sing into a microphone and hear your voice going through software and hardware effects with virtually no delay in the signal. The effects of a low-latency ASIO driver make it ideal for use with Virtual Studio Technology (VST) instruments, plug-ins, and all other software-based synthesizers. Many of these devices can be played back in real time from MIDI output devices. <br />
<br />
After Steinberg was bought by a seperate company, they released the SDK (Development Kit) to the public free of charge on their website. There have been several attempts made by 3rd party developers to write drivers in order to bring ASIO to all consumer grade soundcards ''(see asio4all)''.<br />

<hr />
<div>Compaact! is one of the newest [[AAC]] encoders. Like [[Nero AAC]], compaact! is not free, however it does offer an impressive feature set. Roberto Amorim's last [[AAC]] test showed that at 128kbps, Compaact! is tied with both the [[FAAC]] and Coding Technologies (Real) encoders. Compaact! features both the LC and Main Object Types, [[CBR]], [[VBR]], [[Multichannel]], high resolution (24bit/96kHz) encoding, and command line support.<br />
<br />
For portable encoding, try -q5 to -q6. For music archive purposes, try -q7 to -q8.<br />
<br />
Compaact! development has been recently discontinued, therefore, we have probably seen the last of it.<br />

<div>'''WavPack''' is a free, open source [[lossless]] audio compression format developed by David Bryant.<br />
<br />
== Description ==<br />
WavPack (pronounced "wave-pack") allows users to compress (and restore) all [[PCM]] audio formats including 8, 16, and 24-bit ints; 32-bit floats; [[mono]], [[stereo]], and [[multichannel]]; [[sampling rate]]s from 6 to 192 kHz. Like other lossless compression schemes the data reduction varies with the source, but it is generally between 25 % and 50 % for typical popular music and somewhat better than that for classical music and other sources with greater dynamic range.<br />
<br />
WavPack also incorporates a unique "hybrid" mode that provides all the advantages of lossless compression with an additional bonus. Instead of creating a single file, this mode creates both a relatively small, high-quality lossy file that can be used all by itself, and a "correction" file that (when combined with the lossy file) provides full lossless restoration. For some users this means never having to choose between lossless and lossy compression!<br />
<br />
== Feature Summary ==<br />
* Fast and efficient encoding and decoding<br />
* [[Open source]], released under a BSDish license<br />
* Multiplatform<br />
* Hardware support<br />
* Error robustness<br />
* Streaming support<br />
* Supports multichannel audio and high resolutions<br />
* Hybrid/lossy mode<br />
* Tagging support ([[ID3v1]], [[APE]])<br />
* Supports [[RIFF]] chunks<br />
* Supports embedded CUE sheets<br />
* Includes MD5 hashes for quick integrity checking<br />
* Ability to create self extracting files for Win32 platform<br />
* [[ReplayGain]] compatible<br />
<br />
== History ==<br />
David Bryant started development on WavPack in mid-1998, with the release of version 1.0. This first version compressed and decompressed audio losslessly, nothing else, but by then it already featured one of the best efficiency versus speed ratio among lossless encoders.<br />
<br />
Very soon after the release of version 1.0, Bryant released v. 2.0, which featured lossy encoding (using only quantization for data reduction – no psychoacoustic process was applied to the stream).<br />
<br />
In 1999, the developer released version 3.0, which featured novelties such as a fast mode (with reduced compression ratio), compression of RAW files and error detection using CRC checksums.<br />
<br />
WavPack development is still going on, and a major feature added in late 3.x versions is the hybrid mode, where the encoder generates a lossy file + a correction file, so that both can be decompressed back to the original PCM stream.<br />
<br />
WavPack 4 has been recently released. It included important changes, such as fast seeking, multichannel support, high resolution audio support, etc. turning it into one of the most full featured and modern lossless audio compressors.<br />

<br />
== Technology description ==<br />
To ensure high-speed operation, WavPack uses a very simple predictor that is implemented entirely in integer math. In its "fast" mode the prediction is simply the arithmetic extrapolation of the previous two samples. For example, if the previous two samples were -10 and 20, then the prediction would be 50. For the default mode a simple adaptive factor is added to weigh the influence of the earlier sample on the prediction. In our example the resulting prediction could then vary between 20 for no influence to 50 for full influence. This weight factor is constantly updated based on the audio data's changing spectral characteristics, which is why it is called "adaptive".<br />
<br />
The prediction generated is then subtracted from the actual sample to be encoded to generate the error value. In mono mode this value is sent directly to the coder. However, stereo signals tend to have some correlation between the two channels that can be further exploited. Therefore, two error values are calculated that represent the difference and average of the left and right error values. In the "fast" mode of operation these two new values are simply sent to the coder instead of the left and right values. In the default mode, the difference value is always sent to the coder along with one of the other three values (average, left, or right). An adaptive algorithm continuously determines the most efficient of the three to send based on the changing balance of the channels.<br />
<br />
The developer has developed a unique data encoder for WavPack that he believes is better than Rice coding in two different areas. It is impossible to encode more efficiently than Rice coding because it represents the optimal bit coding (sometimes known as the Huffman code) for this type of data. WavPack's encoder is slightly less efficient than this, but only by about 0.15 bits/sample (or less than 1% for 16-bit data). The first advantage of WavPack's coder is that it does not require the data to be buffered ahead of encoding, instead it converts each sample directly to bitcodes. This is more computationally efficient and it is better in some applications where coding delay is critical. The second advantage is that it is easily adaptable to lossy encoding because all significant bits (except the implied "one" MSB) are transmitted directly. In this way it is possible to only transmit, for example, the 3 most significant bits (with sign) of each sample. In fact, it is possible to transmit only the sign and implied MSB for each sample with an average of only 3.65 bits/sample.<br />
<br />
This coding scheme is used to implement the "lossy" mode of WavPack. In the "fast" mode the output of the non-adaptive decorrelator is simply rounded to the nearest codable value for the specified number of bits. In the default mode the adaptive decorrelator is used (which reduces the average noise about 1 dB) and also both the current and the next sample are considered in choosing the better of the two available codes (which reduces noise another 1 dB).<br />
<br />
The developer has decided to not use any floating-point arithmetic in WavPack's data path because he believes that integer operations are less susceptible to subtle chip to chip variations that could corrupt the lossless nature of the compression, the Pentium floating point bug being a blatant example of this. It is possible that a lossless compressor that used floating-point math could generate different output when running on that faulty Pentium. Even disregarding actual bugs, floating-point math is complicated enough that there could be subtle differences between "correct" implementations that could cause trouble for this type of application. To further ensure confidence in the integrity of WavPack's compression, the encoder includes a 32-bit error detection code to the generated streams.<br />
<br />
WavPack source code is very portable. It has been compiled on several Unices (Linux, Mac OS X, Solaris, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD, Compaq Tru64, HP-UX...) as well as Windows, DOS and OpenVMS. It works on architectures such as x86, ARM, PowerPC, SPARC, DEC Alpha, PA-RISC, MIPS, Motorola 68k...<br />

'''Free Lossless Audio Codec''' ('''FLAC''') is a codec for lossless audiocompression.<br />
Grossly oversimplified, FLAC is similar to [[MP3]], but [[lossless]], meaning that audio is compressed in FLAC without any loss in quality. This is similar to how Zip works, except with FLAC you will get much better compression because it is designed specifically for audio, and you can play back compressed FLAC files in your favorite player (or your car or home stereo, if supported) just like you would an MP3 file.<br />
<br />
== General aspects of the format ==<br />
FLAC is freely available and supported on most operating systems, including Windows, UNIX (Linux, *BSD, Solaris, OS X, IRIX), BeOS, OS/2, and Amiga. There are build systems for autotools, MSVC, Watcom C, and Project Builder.<br />
<br />
The FLAC project consists of:<br />
* the stream format<br />
* reference encoders and decoders in library form<br />
* flac, a command-line program to encode and decode FLAC files<br />
* metaflac, a command-line metadata editor for FLAC files<br />
* input plugins for various music players<br />
<br />
When it's said that FLAC is ''free'', it means more than just that it is available at no cost. It means that the specification of the format is fully open to the public to be used for any purpose, although the FLAC project reserves the right to set the FLAC specification and certify compliance. It also means that neither the FLAC format nor any of the implemented encoding/decoding methods are covered by any known patent. And it means that all the source code is available under open-source licenses. It is the first truly open and free lossless audio format.<br />
<br />
== Features ==<br />
* '''Lossless:''' The encoding of audio (PCM) data incurs no loss of information, and the decoded audio is bit-for-bit identical to what went into the encoder. Each frame contains a 16-bit CRC of the frame data for detecting transmission errors. The integrity of the audio data is further insured by storing an MD5 signature of the original unencoded audio data in the file header, which can be compared against later during decoding or testing.<br />
* '''Fast:''' FLAC is asymmetric in favor of decode speed. Decoding requires only integer arithmetic, and is much less compute-intensive than for most perceptual codecs. Real-time decode performance is easily achievable on even modest hardware.<br />
* '''Hardware support:''' Because of FLAC's free reference implementation, low decoding complexity and popularity, FLAC has relatively widespread hardware support compared to other lossless formats.<br />
* '''Streamable:''' Each FLAC frame contains enough data to decode that frame. FLAC does not even rely on previous or following frames. FLAC uses sync codes and CRCs (similar to MPEG and other formats), which, along with framing, allow decoders to pick up in the middle of a stream with a minimum of delay.<br />
* '''Seekable:''' FLAC supports fast sample-accurate seeking. Not only is this useful for playback, it makes FLAC files suitable for use in editing applications.<br />
* '''Flexible metadata:''' New metadata blocks can be defined and implemented in future versions of FLAC without breaking older streams or decoders. Currently there are metadata types for tags, cue sheets, and seek tables. Applications can write their own APPLICATION metadata once they register an ID.<br />
* '''Suitable for archiving:''' FLAC is an open format, and there is no generation loss if you need to convert your data to another format in the future. In addition to the frame CRCs and MD5 signature, flac has a verify option that decodes the encoded stream in parallel with the encoding process and compares the result to the original, aborting with an error if there is a mismatch.<br />
* '''Convenient CD archiving:''' FLAC has a ''cue sheet'' metadata block for storing a CD table of contents and all track and index points. For instance, you can rip a CD to a single file, then import the CD's extracted cue sheet while encoding to yield a single file representation of the entire CD. If your original CD is damaged, the cue sheet can be exported later in order to burn an exact copy.<br />
* '''Error resistant:''' Because of FLAC's framing, stream errors limit the damage to the frame in which the error occurred, typically a small fraction of a second worth of data. Contrast this with some other lossless codecs, in which a single error destroys the remainder of the stream.<br />
<br />
== Pros ==<br />
* Portable to many systems<br />
* Source open and freely licenced<br />
* Hardware support (PhatBox, Kenwood MusicKeg, Rio Karma, etc. See below)<br />
* Streaming support<br />
* Extremely fast decoding<br />
* Supports multichannel and high resolution streams<br />
* Supports [[ReplayGain]]<br />
* Supports cue-sheet (with some limitations)<br />
* Gaining wide use as successor to [[Shorten]]<br />
<br />
== Cons ==<br />
* Compresses less efficiently than other popular modern compressors ([[Monkey's Audio]], [[OptimFROG]])<br />
* Higher compression modes slow, for little gain over the default setting.<br />

== Frequently asked questions ==<br />
''Question:'' Does the compression level affect decompression speed?<br />
<br />
''Short Answer'': No.<br />
<br />
''Long Answer'': In truth, the compression level does affect the decompression speed, but the difference between the various compress levels can barely be measured and is too small to be noticed, even on low-end machines.<br />
<br />
<br />
''Question:'' What is the best compression level for encoding my music?<br />
<br />
''Short Answer'': The default setting, 5.<br />
<br />
''Long Answer'': Encoding at the default setting will give the best balance between compression and encoding speed. Encoding at 8 can more than quadruple the encoding time, while having an insignificant effect on compression.<br />

'''LAME''' (Lame Ain't an MP3 Encoder) is the [[Hydrogenaudio]] recommended [[MP3]] encoder. It has been developed by the open-source community since 1998, and has become the highest quality MP3 encoder for most purposes.<br />
<br />
Some benefits of using LAME:<br />
* Highly optimised presets<br />
* Fast encoding<br />
* [[CBR]], [[ABR]] and quality-optimized [[VBR]] encoding methods<br />
* [[Gapless]] playback with LAME-header compliant decoders<br />
* Supported by recommended CD rippers [[Exact Audio Copy]] and [[CDex]]<br />
* Highly tunable<br />
<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
LAME development began around mid-1998. Mike Cheng started it as a patch against the 8hz-MP3 encoder sources. After some quality concerns raised by others, he decided to start from scratch based on the dist10 sources.<ref>dist10 is the rudimentary "demonstration" MP3 encoder described in the MPEG-2 standard, ISO/IEC 13818.</ref> That branch (a patch against the reference sources) became LAME 2.0. By the release of LAME 3.81, all dist10 code was removed, making LAME a completely new program, not a mere patch of an existing encoder.<br />
<br />
The project quickly became a team effort. Mike Cheng eventually left leadership and started working on [http://toolame.sourceforge.net/ tooLAME], an [[MP2]] encoder. Mark Taylor became leader and released version 3.0 featuring gpsycho, a new psychoacoustic model developed by him.<br />
<br />
Nowadays LAME is considered the best MP3 encoder at mid & high bitrates, and features the best VBR model among MP3 implementations, mostly thanks to the dedicated work of talented developers Takehiro Tominaga, Naoki Shibata, Darin Morrison, Gabriel Bouvigne, Robert Hegemann, and others. Development is ongoing.<br />
<br />
Although LAME is generally considered to be an encoder, according to the LAME technical FAQ, it's technically not an encoder, but rather is officially just "a development project which uses the open source model to improve MP3 technology." This improved technology is only released in source code form in order to minimize the risk of violating patents. When the source code is compiled and distributed, it ''may'' require a license from Thomson, depending on where and how it's to be used. The LAME project's position is "Source code is considered as speech, which may contain descriptions of patented technology. Descriptions of patents are in the public domain."<br />
<br />
==Recommended encoder compiles and source code==<br />
<br />
Unless noted otherwise, the recommended LAME compile for optimal quality is always the '''latest stable version'''.<br />
<br />
It is suggested that the compiles available here be used with the recommended encoder settings you can find below.<br />
<br />

Avoid using alpha versions of LAME. These versions have "a" in their version string. More often than not those are exclusively for testing purposes. Use them only if you want to help developers with feedback.<br />
<br />
==Recommended encoder settings==<br />
This section describes the [[Hydrogenaudio]] recommended settings to be used with LAME for highest quality MP3 encoding. These settings require LAME 3.98 or later (the latest stable version is recommended).<br />
<br />
<div style="background-color: #F0F0F0; color: black; border: 1px solid black; margin: 1em; padding: 1em 2em 1em 2em;"><br />
====Maximum quality and archiving====<br />
<br />
Maximum quality is achieved when, regardless of listening conditions, you are unable to detect a difference between the MP3 and the original. As demonstrated by blind [[ABX]] tests, LAME-encoded MP3s typically achieve this level of [[transparency]] when encoded with the default settings, at bitrates well below maximum. Encoding with other settings will have no effect on the quality.<br />
<br />
For archiving, only [[lossless]] formats like [[WavPack]], [[FLAC]], etc. are ideal; they will preserve the audio with no changes, sample-for-sample, regardless of encoder settings. In contrast, lossy formats like MP3 are designed to save space by changing the audio in subtle, often imperceptible ways, even at the encoder's maximum settings.<br />
<br />
====Very high quality: <font style="color:red">HiFi, home, or quiet listening, with best file size</font>====<br />
<br />
<code><font style="color:green">-V0</font></code> (~245 kbps), <code><font style="color:green">-V1</font></code> (~225 kbps), <code><font style="color:green">-V2</font></code> (~190 kbps) or <code><font style="color:green">-V3</font></code> (~175 kbps) are recommended.<br />
<br />
These [[VBR]] settings will normally produce [[transparency|transparent]] results. Audible differences between these presets may exist, but are rare.<br />
<br />
====Very high quality: <font style="color:red">HiFi, home, or quiet listening, with maximum file size</font>====<br />
<br />
<code><font style="color:red">-b 320</font></code> is an alternative to the VBR settings above.<br />
<br />
This [[CBR]] mode will maximize the MP3's bitrate and overall file size. The extra space may allow for some parts of the audio to be compressed with fewer sacrifices, but to date, no one has produced ABX test results demonstrating that perceived quality is ever better than the highest VBR profiles described above.<ref>Prior to version 3.99, CBR and VBR modes were encoded differently by LAME. In some unusual problem samples, these differences were sometimes audible, even at very high bitrates. Current versions of LAME encode CBR and VBR the same way, so such differences shouldn't arise from normal use.</ref><br />
<br />
====Portable: <font style="color:purple">listening in noisy conditions, lower bitrate, smaller file size</font>====<br />
<br />
<code><font style="color:purple">-V4</font></code> (~165 kbps), <code><font style="color:purple">-V5</font></code> (~130 kbps) or <code><font style="color:purple">-V6</font></code> (~115 kbps) are recommended.<br />
<br />
<code><font style="color:purple">-V6</font></code> produces an "acceptable" quality, while <code><font style="color:purple">-V4</font></code> should be close to perceptual [[transparency]].<br />
<br />
====Very low bitrate, small sizes: <font style="color:blue">eg. for voice, radio, [[mono]] encoding etc.</font>====<br />
<br />
For very low bitrates, up to 100kbps, [[ABR]] is most often the best solution. <br />
Use <code><font style="color:blue">--abr <bitrate></font></code> (e.g. --abr 80).<br />
<br />
'''--preset voice''' is only available in the command line front-end, and is there for compatibility.<br />
It is currently mapped to '''''--abr 56 -mm''''', so that means that the recommendation would be to encode in mono, and use ABR.<br />
</div><br />
<br />
==Understanding the bitrate settings==<br />
MP3s are divided into frames, each frame being a particular size, expressed as a [[bitrate]]. If the bitrate of every frame is the same throughout the file, then the file is considered to be ''constant bit rate'' ([[CBR]]). Otherwise, it is ''variable bit rate'' ([[VBR]]). LAME offers CBR and VBR encoding modes, as well as a special VBR encoding mode called [[ABR]] (''average bit rate'').<br />
<br />
===VBR (variable bitrate) settings===<br />
'''[[VBR]]:''' ''variable bitrate mode. Use variable bitrate modes when the goal is to achieve a fixed level of quality using the lowest possible bitrate.''<br />
<br />
VBR is best used to target a specific quality level, instead of a specific bitrate. The final file size of a VBR encode is less predictable than with [[ABR]], but the quality is usually better.<br />
<br />
Unlike other MP3 encoders which do VBR encoding based on predictions of output quality, LAME's default VBR method tests the ''actual'' output quality to ensure the desired quality level is always achieved.<br />
<br />
'''Usage:''' <code>-V&lt;number></code> where &lt;number> is 0-9, 0 being highest quality, 9 being the lowest.<br />
<br />
'''Example:''' <code>-V2</code><br />
<br />
'''Note:''' The switch <code>--vbr-new</code>, which enabled a superior VBR mode in LAME 3.97 and some previous versions, is no longer needed with LAME 3.98 and higher, as it is now the default VBR mode. However, if you're still using LAME 3.97 or older, you have to add <code>--vbr-new</code> to your commandline to use that mode.<br />
<br />

<br />
If you need a predictable bitrate (in a streaming application, for example), use ABR or CBR modes, described below.<br />
<br />
===ABR (average bitrate) settings===<br />
'''[[ABR]]:''' ''average bitrate mode. A compromise between VBR and CBR modes, ABR encoding varies bits around a specified target bitrate.''<br />
<br />
Use ABR when you need to know the final size of the file but still want to allow the encoder some flexibility to decide which passages need more bits. The output is an ordinary VBR file compatible with all MP3 players that support VBR; ABR is not a special type of file, just a LAME-specific strategy for producing VBR.<br />
<br />
'''Usage:''' <code>--preset &lt;bitrate></code> where &lt;bitrate> (desired averaged bitrate in kbit/s) is a value between 8 and 320.<br />
<br />
'''Example:''' <code>--preset 200</code><br />
<br />
'''Important:''' ''ABR setting is tuned from 320 kbit/s down to 80 kbit/s.''<br />
<br />
===CBR (constant bitrate) settings===<br />
'''[[CBR]]:''' ''constant bitrate mode. CBR encoding is not efficient. Whereas VBR and ABR modes can supply more bits to complex music passages and save bits on simpler ones, CBR encodes every frame at the same bitrate.''<br />
<br />
CBR is only recommended for usage in streaming situations where the upper bitrate must be strictly enforced. There is still some variability in bitrate behind the scenes, through LAME's use of the [[bit reservoir]] feature of the MP3 format, but it is much less flexible than actual VBR.<br />
<br />
'''Usage:''' <code>-b <bitrate></code> where <bitrate> (bitrate in kbit/s) must be chosen from the following values: 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 64, 80, 96, 112, 128, 160, 192, 224, 256, or 320.<br />
<br />
'''Example:''' <code>-b 192</code><br />
<br />
'''Important:''' ''CBR setting is tuned from 320 kbit/s down to 80 kbit/s.''<br />
<br />
===Remarks===<br />
* The rule of thumb when considering encoding options: at a given bitrate, [[VBR]] is higher quality than [[ABR]], which is higher quality than [[CBR]] (VBR > ABR > CBR in terms of quality). However, [[ABX]] tests demonstrate that as bitrate increases, the perceptual differences diminish, with all modes generally reaching [[transparency]] well before their maximum settings; when you can't tell the difference, the modes are qualitatively the same.<br />
<br />
* All modes and settings mentioned in this topic belong to the specifications of the MP3 standard, and the resulting MP3s should be playable by every MP3 decoder that conforms with the standard. If your decoder or device does not play MP3s produced by LAME, blame the manufacturer or developer, not LAME.<br />
<br />
* Prior to LAME 3.98, the <code>--vbr-new</code> switch enabled the new VBR mode. This is now the default VBR mode, with the old mode being available via <code>--vbr-old</code>. In terms of quality, the new mode appears to be better than the old, but reports of artifacts when using the new mode do exist. Despite these possible issues, the new mode is currently recommended due to both the speed and quality increases afforded by the new algorithm.<br />
<br />
===Hey! What happened to "--alt-preset"?===<br />
<br />
The revolutionary <code>--alt-preset</code> system was introduced in LAME 3.90; it was replaced by the <code>--preset</code> flags in later versions. Starting with version 3.94, the <code>-Vx</code> quality system was introduced, which allows finer control over the desired bitrate; the <code>--preset</code> switches were made into aliases to the corresponding <code>-V</code> flags for the sake of backwards compatibility. '''There is no difference between the output you get if you use <code>-V2</code> or <code>--alt-preset standard</code>.''' (Although adding <code>--vbr-new</code> is recommended for now, see above for details.)<br />
<br />
More encoding options are available under the new system, such as <code>-V1</code>, which provides a level of quality between the old "standard" and "extreme" presets, or <code>-V3</code>, which is between the old "medium" and "standard" presets.<br />
<br />
Recent LAME versions feature more streamlined command-line options, and it's recommended to stick to one of the values described in the text or shown in the tables above.<br />
<br />
For example, the following command-line options will all produce the same output:<br />
<br />
* <code>--alt-preset insane</code><br />
* <code>--preset insane</code><br />
* <code>-b 320</code><br />
* <code>--preset 320</code><br />
* <code>--preset cbr 320</code><br />

===Fraunhofer decoder incompatibility===<br />
Differing interpretations of an unclear portion of the MP3 spec led to certain versions of the Fraunhofer IIS MP3 decoder being unable to properly play certain MP3s created with certain versions of LAME.<br />
<br />
In order to demonstrate the problem, the problematic MP3 must have been created with LAME 3.97 or earlier, and must contain a frame with certain parameters and a very large amount of data, such as a 320-kbps frame which makes heavy use of the [[bit reservoir]]. The decoder must be the DirectShow filter <code>l3codecx.ax</code> version 1.5.0 or lower. That filter is the decoder used by Windows Media Player. The filter was upgraded to 1.6.0 by [http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2115168/en-us an August 2010 security update]; the newer version can play the problematic MP3s.<br />
<br />
A workaround was implemented in LAME 3.98.0 beta 1 through LAME 3.98.2, and in LAME 3.99 alpha 1, whereby 320-kbps frames were limited in how much of the bit reservoir they could use. This resulted in wasted space when the bit reservoir would grow beyond the limit. In LAME 3.98.3 and beyond, and in LAME 3.99 alpha 2 and beyond, the method was changed such that the bit reservoir can't grow beyond the limit.<br />
<br />

* [http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=78114 Lame 3.98 wastes bits]<br />
<br />
===LAME version string formatting===<br />
The 9-character LAME short version string, as written in the [[MP3#VBRI, XING, and LAME headers|LAME tag]], has the following format:<br />
:"<code>LAME</code>" + major version + "<code>.</code>" + minor version + flag<br />
<br />
When the minor version is > 99, as is expected to happen when LAME 3.100 is released, the "<code>.</code>" will be omitted:<br />
:"<code>LAME</code>" + major version + minor version + flag<br />
<br />
If the version string is ever is less than 9 bytes, it is null-padded when written to the LAME tag.<br />
<br />
The flag is normally one of the following:<br />
* "<code>a</code>" for alpha versions<br />
* "<code>b</code>" for beta versions<br />
* "<code>r</code>" for release versions with patch version > 0, starting with 3.96.1<br />
* "<code> </code>" (space) for all other release versions with minor version < 100<br />
* "" (empty string) for release versions with patch version = 0 and minor version > 99<br />
<br />
For LAME 3.99.1, the format was changed such that release versions with a patch version > 0 would be identified with the following format:<br />
:"<code>L</code>" + major version + "<code>.</code>" + minor version + flag + patch version<br />
<br />
However, the new code contained a minor error which resulted in the patch version being omitted, and the change of "<code>LAME</code>" to "<code>L</code>" proved to be problematic for hardware and software players which failed to recognize the LAME tags as such, adversely affecting [[gapless]] playback and encoder identification, so the new scheme was abandoned for 3.99.2 and up.<br />
<br />
Examples:<br />
* 3.98 = 3.98.0 = "<code>LAME3.98</code>" followed by a space character (byte 0x20)<br />
* 3.98.1 through 3.98.4 = "<code>LAME3.98r</code>"<br />
* 3.99 alpha versions = "<code>LAME3.99a</code>"<br />
* 3.99 beta versions = "<code>LAME3.99b</code>"<br />
* 3.99 = 3.99.0 = "<code>LAME3.99</code>" followed by a space character<br />
* 3.99.1 = "<code>L3.99r</code>" followed by three null characters (byte 0x00) <br />
* 3.99.2 through 3.99.''n'' = "<code>LAME3.99r</code>"<br />
* 3.100 alpha versions = "<code>LAME3100a</code>"<br />
