The following apply mostly to previous versions of the LAME article and therefore may refer to outdated features, such as the famous --alt-presets, whose improvements have long since been folded into the main routines and default settings of LAME.
This article began as a "List of recommended settings" post in the HA forum. Rather than updating the posts there, the information is now only updated here in the wiki. To reduce confusion, recommendations applicable to old versions of LAME are not kept in the wiki.

Forum discussions (old)

This article began as a "List of recommended settings" post in the HA forum. Rather than updating the posts there, the information is now only updated here in the wiki. To reduce confusion, recommendations applicable to old versions of LAME are not kept in the wiki.

Page discussion

I propose a major merging with this page. I don't think information about lame should be scattered all over the wiki. I'll think about it this evening and after the merge I'll add a redirect from all Lame related pages to this one.--Beto 15:51, 13 September 2006 (CDT)

Finally I ended the revision :)--Beto 19:14, 14 September 2006 (CDT)

LAME compiles Win32

http://rarewares.org/dancer/dancer.php?f=1 is linked at this Wiki page. But at http://rarewares.org/mp3.html I can only find http://rarewares.org/dancer/dancer.php?f=107 The two archives contain different lame.exe and lame_enc.dll. Why is that? Here's another compile: http://mitiok.maresweb.org/ This is confusing! --Pohli 13:16, 27 September 2006 (CDT)

IMO we should not give direct link to the downloader; everytime a new build is outed, the direct link becomes outdated. Better to link only to Rareware's MP3 page. --pepoluan (talk | contribs) 13:46, 27 September 2006 (CDT)
Agree. If noone oposes we should make the change.--Beto (talk | contribs) 15:48, 27 September 2006 (CDT)
PLUS, LAME binaries are illegal in many countries. It's easy to use google. Elliottmobilehttp://wiki.hydrogenaudio.org/images/c/c1/Fishysig.PNG 02:10, 28 September 2006 (CDT)
