LAME Description

LAME is an MP3 encoder and graphical frame analyzer. LAME is short from LAME Ain't an MP3 Encoder and is a research project for learning about and improving MP3 encoding technology. LAME includes an MP3 encoding library, simple frontend application, a much-improved psycho-acoustic model (GPSYCHO), and a graphical frame analyzer (MP3x).Please note that any commercial use (including distributing the LAME encoding engine in a free encoder) may require a patent license from Thomson Multimedia. Software which uses "LAME":? andromeda (PHP and ASP) Dynamically presents collections of mp3s as streaming web sites.? rip (Perl) Script for ripping and encoding.? avifile AVI/DIVX encoder and decoder for Linux.? Grip (Linux) gtk-based cd-player, ripper and encoder. Supports cddb, cdparanoia and LAME.? jbm2 (Linux) A KDE jukebox style application for public places (bars, pubs,...)? Krabber (Linux) A KDE ripper & encoder, can use LAME.? Mp3Maker (Linux) A WindowMaker enhanced front end to cdda2wav/cdparanoia and lame/bladeenc.? dekagenc (Linux) Bourne shell script for ripping, encoding and CDDB naming.? ripperX (Linux) GTK frontend for rippers and several encoders featuring CDDB support.? T.E.A.R. (Linux) frontend to LAME, cdparanoia and CDDB.? Xmcd. (Linux) CD Player with CDDB and ripping to MP3 and OGG.? xtunes (Linux) GTK frontend for LAME, MAD, cdparanoia, cdrecord and more.? DropMP3 (Mac) includes LAME binaries.? CDex (Windows) Ripper & encoder, includes LAME binaries (the Blade compatible dll)? Lamedrop (Windows) OggDrop style frontend.? LAMEX (Windows) An activex control for LAME, and a GUI. Source code only, includes LAME.? m3w (Windows) A live mp3 streamer for the WWW. Works with LAME, icecast, soundcard input? out_lame (Windows) Winamp output plug-in. Create MP3 files directly from Winamp!? RazorLame (Windows) The RazorBlade front end now supports LAME.? winLAME (Windows) The only *nice* windows UI for LAME, according to the author :-)? DarkIce Live streamer for IceCast.? LiveIce Real time streaming of mp3s. Works with IceCast? MuSE A mixing, encoding and streaming engine.? Flash Forth a Flash-like development library Here are some key features of "LAME": · Many improvements in quality in speed over ISO reference software. See history. · MPEG1,2 and 2.5 layer III encoding. · CBR (constant bitrate) and two types of variable bitrate, VBR and ABR. · Encoding engine can be compiled as a shared library (Linux/UNIX), DLL or ACM codec (Windows) · free format encoding and decoding · GPSYCHO: a GPL'd psycho acoustic and noise shaping model. · Powerfull and easy to use presets · Quality is comparable to FhG encoding engines and substantially better than most other encoders. · Fast! Encodes faster than real time on a PII 266 at highest quality mode. · MP3x: a GTK/X-Window MP3 frame analyzer for both .mp3 and unencoded audio files. What's New in This Release: · This release adds some quality improvements to the generated audio files, enables the user to choose fractional variable bitrate qualities, and has upgraded support for libsndfile1 (and, in turn, can use many file formats as input, including FLAC files). · It includes many bugfixes, including peripheral tools for user convenience.
