cdripper mp3 setting

[dick hoogendijk-2]

I wrote the following question in a solaris NG but was rerouted here,
because ofthe experts ;-)

I can rip audio cd's with cdripper. The default is to extract to FLAC
(any info on the compression rate here?)
I can also convert to MP3, but how do these settings compare to the
ones for lame?

gstreamer pipe:
audio/x-raw-int,rate=44100,channels=2 ! lame name=enc mode=0
vbr-quality=6 ! id3v2mux

lame encoder:
lame --preset-extreme

I really would like some info on this. I like --preset-extreme very
much and the gstreamer settings don't mean anything to me.

Do some of you know how exactly gstreamer pipe options are? How to make
changes to get the same results as "lame --preset extreme"?

If you like --preset-extreme, then I'd suggest you use 'lame
preset=1002' as your encoding element.  If you look at "gst-inspect
lame", preset=1002 is the code for the 'extreme' preset.  You would want
to remove "mode=0 vbr-quality=6" from that pipeline, and replace it with
"preset=1002".

Thanks for this information. However, if I choose the output format I
only see -four-  options:

CD Quality, Losless (.flac type)
CD Quality, Lossy (.oga type)
Voice, Losless (.wav type)
Voice, Lossy (.spx type)

If I choose edit profiles, the mp3 profile is there, but it does not
show up on the output options. Any ideas?
