WAV to MP3 mayhem

Something's wrong with mp3 codec in my case. Today I installed MediaCoder 0.6.0.3999 and a simple WAV (sample) to MP3 produces totally distorted sound. Same thing was trying to convert some MP4's to MP3.

MP3 to OGG distortions

After converting Solaris soundtrack from mp3 to ogg I noticed MediaCoder produced distortions at the end of track one (starting at 2:20). Both mp3 and resulting ogg are available here (6 mb).

The downmix option does allow to choose both channels. So, if there's guitar in the left channel and voice in the right, I end up with either voice or guitar?

Mono MP3

There seems to be no way to convert mono mp3 to mp3. You either end up with a stereo mp3 or, if you switch channel to mono you end up with a slow playing file. Also, the quality of audio resampler is no good. I don't even know, where could you possibly utilize a resampler like that, which distorts t...

Yeah, in the latest version the bug is eliminated, thank you! It's not really important, but still, the compression ratio, which shows after transcoding of APE CUE is finished, show some crazy value. And I wonder, why is it that Summary tab always shows incorrect value in Target Format: Ogg Vorbis? ...

ReplayGain in FLAC affects output!

I have a whole album of ReplayGained FLACs, which I decided to convert to Ogg Vorbis. The output OGG has lower volume, probably because of MPlayer decoding at a lower volume according to ReplayGain tag. I tried Winamp Input Plugin too, it works the same. Something should be done about it, because vo...

I have a good reason to keep IE default. And as to FireFox, I would rather pay more attention to Opera, which in my opinion outbeats all of currently existing browsers with its wide support and convenient interface.

I found another bug. I have this huge APE file with a CUE list. So, I drop *.cue to MediaCoder, start encoding, and it encodes everything to *.track1.ogg. Eventhough MediaCoder identifies that there are many tracks, it still transcodes everything into one file.

Monkey's Audio Errors

There's a strange thing with APE transcoding. Like for example, if you drop a list of apes, you can be sure, that you will get empty files after several tracks, meaning, that a few tracks from the start of the list will be transcoded properly, and the rest will be less then 100 kb in size. But if yo...
