Hi LoRd_MuldeR.
Thank you for your work on such a great program. I would like to make some suggestions. Please support Freeware Advanced Audio Coder Please support the input file TrueHD Audio, DTS-HD MA. Please add an option (tools -> configuration ->) to skip the update reminder (remove pop-up and annoying music). Please add an option (tools -> configuration ->) splash screen disabled. Or a DisableSplashScreen = false or true line in the LameXP-Portable.ini file. Thanks for everything! Regards. |

FAAC is a subpar AAC encoder. And, to the best of knowledge, development is long dead. We already support much better alternatives, including NeroAAC, FhgAacEnc as well as QAAC (Apple AAC).
Well, if a suitable CLI encoder was available, I would be able too look into this. Unfortunately, development of Valdec (AC-3 Filter tools), which is currently used for AC-3 and DTS decoding, seems to be dead too. Quote:

In theory, it would be possible to simply show no UI at all while the initialization work is going. But be aware that this would not speed things up at all! However, I think it would be confusing for the users, if they start the program but nothing is showing up. It would take several seconds (or even longer for some people), until the LameXP window finally pops up.

I have many AAC encoders and I would like to put in the LameXP directory, each one in its folder, so I can choose which one to use.
List includes: FhgAACenc, neroAacEnc, Qaac, fdkaac and ffmpeg with fdk-aac.dll. Do you think it is possible?

Using latest release, which I installed a little bit ago, on my XP-SP3 system (ya, I know, but this computer has a purpose).
While extracting a .cue file, a song was skipped and a reason was not given. I couldn't find a log file. If I play the .cue file via VLC, the song plays just fine. I skipped to it, played several seconds and then skipped to the next song. No issues. What could cause LameXP to skip a song? Update: While adding some more .cue files, one skipped two files and the next one skipped 13 of 19, 13 of 19 and 14 of 19 (3 disc set). Ouch! OK, this is getting downright nasty. Disc 1 and 2 of a 2 disc set skipped all 20 tracks (each disc).

Just for the notes: I use the CUE sheet import function all the time to import .cue files produced by EAC (Exact Audio Copy) and didn't encounter any "skipped" tracks yet. Anyway, maybe you can see something in the log. BTW: Is this a CUE sheet with just one big WAVE file that will be split into tracks, or does it use a separate WAVE file for each track? In the latter case, it could be that some files were not found for some reasons. (For example, if you choose the "wrong" character encoding, it is possible that file names containing "special" characters are interpreted wrongly)

It shows the details for the track, but gives no reason for the failure. Quote:
This is really weird. I went back to one of the discs where all 20 tracks were skipped and now it only skipped 7. Same with disc 2 of the 2 disc set. The HDD is local, not networked (as in a NAS). You have an XP issue. Something is failing internally when the program is run on an XP SP3 32bit system. I installed it on one of my Win7-64 bit systems and the flac file imported and split just fine. The earlier beta build that I had worked just fine on the XP system. BTW, I thought that LameXP was 64bit as well. But it installed in the X86 location. |

@MrVideo,
Can you upload your .cue sheet?

I restarted the splitting on the Win7 box. All was good until I got to this disc, in which track 14 was skipped:

MrVideo, I tried with the second .cue file you provided, and apparently it was imported just as expected, with all 21 tracks:
(since I don't have your original FLAC file, I simply used a dummy WAVE file of appropriate length, but otherwise the .cue file is totally unchanged) Looks like the CUE sheet parser found all 21 tracks, and they all have a positive length: https://i.imgur.com/6zCbtGB.png Also, all 21 tracks have been imported successfully, with all 21 imported files being non-empty: https://i.imgur.com/f82OBOg.png Does importing that same .cue file look differently on your side? If so, can you please provide screenshots showing the same phases as above?

OK, reverting back to the original .cue file, it now skips 4 tracks. The same three + #10.
First image is the same, in that all 21 tracks are listed. Here is after importing: It isn't a jpg file, it is a png file. |

And also all 21 tracks are shown with a positive length (duration) and with a reasonable start index in the CUE import dialog? – just to be sure.
This would indicate that something goes wrong during the actual splitting/importing, not in the CUE file parser. Please run the program with command-line option "--console", so that you'll have a log window, and see if any errors or warnings (or anything unusual) appear in the log during the import step. (You can just provide the complete log, if you want to)

I can zip this particular disc for you to look at and place it on my server. Once you get it, I'll delete the file.

In the console (log) window, select "Edit -> Select All" from the system menu, or just press Ctrl+A. Then, once all is selected, press Enter to copy it. Finally, paste anywhere you like. I don't think the exact FLAC/WAVE file makes a difference. After all, the other split processes, on the exactly same input FLAC file, seem to succeed

Just for grins, I installed the NCH switch program to convert the complete flac file to a single wav file.
I then edited a copy of the cue file and change the file to be imported to the wav file. I imported that and it was even worse. Tracks 4-7, 10 & 18 failed. Not only that, the files that were extracted are garbage. The input wav file was fine, as I checked it out in the audio editing program. |

...try with this version: http://www.mediafire.com/file/a1e9e5...Build-2257.zip (Again we need the log output, but this special build should create more detailed logging) Okay, that is weird. With those other CUE files, which did not have any "skipped" files, you never encountered any "garbage" in the extract files? (did you check that?)

If I load the WAV file into Adobe Audition, it is displayed correctly. I then do a save-as to overwrite the file, so nothing is changed, except header info. Then CoolEdit2000 loads and displays the WAV file correctly. I do not know exactly what you are writing in the WAV files, but CoolEd2000 doesn't like them. Audition writes a file that is more compatible. |
