What is RazorLame?
------------------
RazorLame is a so-called front-end for use with LAME.
LAME is a great MP3-Encoder: it's very fast, it produces
high-quality files, has many advanced features (like
Variable Bitrates and Joint-Stereo), and it's open source.
Unfortunately, it is a command line utility, and that is
where RazorLame comes in: it provides an easy-to-use
graphical user-interface which makes MP3-encoding even
easier!
You can find more about LAME at http://www.mp3dev.org/

Version 1.1.3
was an internal-only release and is now the base
for 1.2.0, which is currently developed. Current source
of 1.2.0 can be obtained through CVS at
http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/razorlame
Version 1.1.2a (26. March 2001)
(-) Added some messages to RazorLame.dat, as there was trouble
with some popular compiled versions of lame 3.88 beta
Version 1.1.2 (21. January 2001)
(+) If LAME outputs a histogram during encoding, RL can now display
this histogram graphically as well.
(+) You can now set the default priority of the encoding thread.
(+) You can now choose what RL should do if "shutdown Windows when
done" is checked. Options include Hibernate, Suspend, Log Off,
Just close RL, Reboot, and of course, shutdown.
(+) You can now save option settings in a file. And of course
load them again ;-)
(*) The progress window is now resizable.
(*) The option dialog is now splitted in a "program" options and a
"LAME" options dialog.
(*) The LAME options dialog now always show the resulting LAME
switches without the need for pressing a "show" button.
(*) You can now move columns of the listview.
However, layout of listview isn't stored yet.
(*) "View Log" window now has a "delete log" button.
(*) added support for "--athshort" and "-q" switches.
Added a "default" mode for the channel modes.
(*) hopefully the output directory option is now more intuitive.
(-) RL now uses less CPU time (i.e. it updates the progress window
only once in a second, when in tray it updates it only every
ten seconds.)
(-) fixed problems with some mp3 files (e.g. "trimmed")
when decoding or re-encoding
(-) Probably more smaller fixes I cannot think of right now.
