After I switched CD drive 1 to the same powered USB hub I used with drive 2, everything worked smooth again. I tested another CD drive (CD drive2), which worked totally fine with CDs that threw all those XLD errors I mentioned when trying to rip them in CD drive 1. Please Close this ticket Seems to be a HW problem. you are running ARM64 native version of XLD but the plugin is for x86-64 architecture).
XLD MP3 CONVERTER INSTALL
m4a file is AAC (which cannot be decoded unless an external plugin is installed), and you don't have a proper install of ugin (e.g. I hear about some plugins in need of installation the first time ever. It errors out with every format, every option and I tried every combo. The issue affects XLD with every macOS version from 10.7 to 10.14. The issue affects XLD in every macOS version from 10.7 to 10.14. "every format" "every option" isn't informative, exact information (steps to reproduce, input file format, output file format) is necessary. Attaching the metadata analysis.Īs far as I've tested it is working on my all test environments (10.6 and 10.12 and 10.13 and 12). The input file is an audio screen recording. Output file - any supported audio file format from mp3 to AIFF and WAV. Audio ID: 1 Format: AAC LC Format/Info: Advanced Audio Codec Low Complexity So it is expected that "error: cannot handle file" message appears without the decoder plugin. What is level 5 and how do I look up and set the levels? I attach the comparison record. The question is why is it compressing the original more than expected (91% vs 86%)? The command output says level 5 compression is applied. This time, I managed to encode a true AIFF PCM media to FLAC. You seem to be able to run CLI properly, so this topic will be closed.
In this case a cover art is embedded as PNG and it takes about 3.5 megabytes, then the "Stream size" is smaller than the actual file size. Well, I'm not sure why you think that "compressing the original more than expected", but if you are mentioning to a "Stream size" field it means the actual audio data size in the whole file.
What a lovely little rant, but nobody really asked for it.Do not use deprecated FS* APIs on 10.5 and laterįix a problem when overwriting the original fileįlacOutput: explicitly set max lpc order to make no compression working they certainly won't be adding FLAC all of a sudden onto formats compatible with iDevices). ALAC will work with all Apple iDevices, and as it's been open licensed (although it was already reverse engineered beforehand anyway), it's likely to work on non-Apple devices going into the future.įLAC on the other hand will never be able to be used natively on Apple iDevices, as Apple have firmly nailed their cross to the mast on wanting to use ALAC with some kind of adaptive streaming which FLAC won't work with (ie. Most knowledgeable users are using *lossless* formats now, as they can be re-formatted back to WAV (and/or into other lossy formats) ad infinitum, and storage is cheap (and small devices will get a lot more storage in future & use cloud services for storage/syncing too).ĪLAC and FLAC are the two leading ones.īoth ALAC and FLAC are open licensed now. MP3? Sure you want to be using that (lossy format) in this day and age for both archiving and sales it is NOT good longterm.
