I guess you'd cry for proper Unicode support, as soon you get the error message that the program can't open file "?????" just because their happen to be some foreign characters in the name

So if you have a music file with a title and/or artist that happens to not be representable in your local ANSI codepage, then you rename it to ... ?
And if the renamed file is transferred to another computer later and that computer happens to have a different ANSI codepage configured, so now the new name cannot be represented, you rename the file again? And again... And again... But we are getting off-topic here

If I select up to 15 audio files in a folder and right-click, "Convert this file with LameXP v4.04" appears and the conversion runs just fine.
Anything more than that, and there is no bold option. This would be a Windows "problem", right? Thanks in advance. |

Do all these files have the same extension? I would understand this behavior, if some of the files have extensions that are associated with LameXP and some have other extensions. In that case, the LameXP context menu entry would only appear if all files in your selection have an extension that is associated with LameXP. Or in other words: Make sure that each file in your selection has the context menu entry individually. Only then the whole selection can have the context menu entry too...

Hmm, then that's really strange. But as it happens with MediaInfo's context menu entry too, I don't think it's a LameXP issue.
But I can reproduce the issue here! Maybe Windows doesn't allow more 15 items, because launching the application more than 15 times might slow down the system too much. I remember that in older versions of Windows there was a warning popup, asking if you really want to proceed, when you tried to select+open a lot of files this way...

(2) Before I've disabled avast!, it was almost the same with the latest beta (Build 892), but this time it was a diferent message that read "Failed!". (3) The log for the problematic files was: LameXP v4.04 (Build #892), compiled on 2012-02-23 at 21:17:24 ------------------------------- C:/WINDOWS.0/TEMP/5453eb697217448fba059269ae2c6a3c/tool_flac.exe -d -F -f -o F:\temp\4073285ae87647ffb9c13a9ca9540f8a.wav "F:\Music\!dnb\Hospital Records\!flac\London Elektricity - Live At The Scala_FLAC\09 - London Elektricity - Main Ingredient.flac" Exited with code: 0x0000 Adding LameXP to exceptions list did no good, so I'm supposed to reconvert failed files every time or to disable my antivirus while converting. |

It's not the first time that an "anti-virus" software attacks a legitimate software You should report the problem to the support of your anti-virus software. And, if they don't fix the problem in time, switch to a better a/v solution! There are various decent free solutions available. Personally I'm satisfied with MSE and/or Avira Antivir... Quote:

Funnily enough, there was another problem that often broke Job Object handling on Vista (and later) and thus the former problem mostly didn't occur...

Just wanted to drop a note to say thank you for this tool. I needed to convert a bunch of flac files to mp3 so I can play them in my car and when I tried lame by itself it didn't recognize the flac source. So did a quick search for a tool and here it is. Worked great. Many thanks. BTW, if any chance at all, would love to see a CLI version.

This is a GUI front-end for a bunch of CLI tools (LAME, OggEnc, FLAC, etc), so your request seems a bit paradoxical.
If you want to do batch encoding via CLI, e.g. from a batch script, then you can call the involved CLI tools directly and you don't need LameXP as another layer in between. Anyway, LameXP does support a few command-line switches, e.g. for adding files or folders from the command-line. Probably not what you want though...

Bug: Levelling?
There is some levelling data written also when the option is disabled. So coded MP3s have not 100% volume level when played with a player supporting this (like MediaMonkey).
Normally leveling data should be "0" when not enabled in the extended options |

What is "levelling data"

Volume normalization.
With newer versions of LameXP there is some normalizing data in dB written, so players which support this will play the track not at 100% volume level. This data is written also when the options is disabled. In MediaMonkey it will be displayed in the file properties details with "leveling: Track: -6dB" |

LameXP does support volume normalization, but it's completely optional.
Also normalization does not happen by writing any kind of "normalizing data" (whatever that is supposed to be) to the file. Instead, if (and only if) normalization is enabled, the source is decompressed first and then the audio is normalized via SoX before it is sent to the encoder. Again, this is optional and it is disabled by default (see the "Advanced Options" tab). I have no idea what kind of info "MediaMonkey" displays.
