eac3to - change FLAC compression level
Posted: Sat Oct 10, 2015 3:33 pm
Hi madshi,
First of all, thanks for such a wonderful tool. eac3to really is an exceptional piece of software and I'm very grateful that you release it for free use.
I just have a query about FLAC compression. From an old thread, I see that eac3to uses level 8 by default (best compression, slowest encode time).
Is there any way to change this? I use FLAC files as a temporary step in my conversion process (it's the only lossless format accepted by my audio program) so speed matters more than compression.
Is there any way to specify, for example, level 0 compression for FLAC output instead? If not, could the eac3to (or libFLAC) executables be hex-edited to change the default level used?
Many thanks!
