hi guys,

i'm just sticking EAC and Lame on my pc havn't ripped anything for ages but got a few cds to do...

when i first installed this ages ago, i configured based on a superb guide that told me everything i need to know to get the best results, but now there seem to be a multitute of setup tutorials on the net so was just wondering if there is a config tutorial that really stands out as "the one to follow"

wicked piece of software but a bitch to set up with all them thousands of options :)
 
Bledd sent me his setup of EAC. It works very well. See if you can find him or hope he sees this thread and posts. I'll speak to him on MSN if I see him.
 
here you go

http://bleddyn.co.uk/files/EAC.exe

just double click the exe once and it will install itself and write a reg entry for the settings (might happen really quickly)


now check start menu and there'll be an EAC entry, run that and choose the correct cd drive, then select the tracks and click MP3

they'll go to "C:\mp3" by default, you can change this in the options

the files will be 32-320vbr mp3's on high quality setting

i made a bat file that does this..

md "%programfiles%\EAC"
xcopy EAC "%programfiles%\EAC" /h/e/y
regedit /S settings.reg

SET KEY=HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\AWSoftware\EAC
REG ADD %KEY% /V InstallPath /D "%programfiles%\EAC\\" /f
SET KEY="HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\AWSoftware\EAC\Compression Options"
REG ADD %KEY% /V ExternalEncoderProgram /D "%programfiles%\EAC\Lame\Lame.exe" /f

if exist "%systemdrive%\program files (x86)\" goto 64
goto 32
:64
copy Eac64.lnk "%allusersprofile%\Start Menu\Programs\Eac.lnk"
copy Eac64.lnk "%windir%\system32\Eac.lnk"
goto end
:32
copy Eac.lnk "%allusersprofile%\Start Menu\Programs\Eac.lnk"
copy Eac.lnk "%windir%\system32\Eac.lnk"

:end

to make an installer that works for both 32bit and 64bit, it registers the reg file (you can extract that exe i made with winrar or 7zip to see the files used)

then i used a converted the bat file to an exe using exescript, reshacked that exe to make it a bit smaller, called it installer.exe, then made an eac.7z file from all the files used

next i used "copy /b 7z.sfx + config.txt + eac.7z EAC.exe", then reshacked that to give it an EAC icon

basically i followed instructions found for other applications on msfn.org and made my own for EAC

Who's a clever boy then? :p

Thought you were meant to be drunk? That's what MSN said when you signed on. Unless you've programmed MSN to sense when you are drunk? :D
