Don:

Unfortunatly, you can't tell which version of LAME you have just by
looking at the file, since there is not a version header on
LAME_ENC.dll. Besides, you probably won't find agreement among many
people about which is the best version. Finally, if you back-date a copy
of LAME for a program that expects a newer version, you will probably
crash. So, my advice, leave it alone.

We ship LAME 3.95 with our products which are licensed for MP3
encoding. in my opinion, this version sounds the best, though I haven't
spent any time with anything real new. I didn't like 3.96. Aside from a
known crash situation which we are blocking out in our products, LAME
3.95 is quite good.

Hi All,

I must have four or five versions of lame_enc.dll in various program
files
throughout my computer.  Does anyone have definitive information about
which
version is the best to use for getting the most accurate mp3 files.  I
have
versions as small as 140k all the way up to 400k, and I somehow feel I
should be using what is considered the best which might not be the
latest.

Thanks all for any wisdom.

Don Barrett
