xlevel in command line?

SweMule · 23 November 2004, 11:06 pm

I have now installed the new SV7 1.15s encoder so that it works with EAC. Problem is, what am I to do with the '--xlevel' part of the command line?. Shall i replace it with '--noxlevel' or should I just remove it?.
The reason I wonder is because the new encoder already have the xlevel built in.

You can omit it. There is no need to type it if you want it to be active. If you still type it, the result will be the same - it will be used. The only way to *not* use it is to type --noxlevel.

If you encode using "--xlevel," you'll get a note saying "Xlevel coding now enabled by default, --xlevel ignored." Instead, there is a "--noxlevel" switch, which is not recommended for normal use. From the description in "--longhelp": "--noxlevel - use old filterbank clipping solving strategy"

Ok, if I understand this right then I guess I should just leave the '--xlevel' part as it is. All that happens is that I get a note telling me that xlevel is already in use.
Do I get this note on every track I encode from an album? or just once?.
What happens if I remove the '--xlevel' part completely?. Wouldn't that be the most safest solution?.

What the note says is exactly that, that --xlevel is no longer needed and used by default, you don't need to use --xlevel anymore.
