flac worse than shorten
...encoding the album as individual tracks and > compare sizes. The reason I ask is because of > the way FLAC frames are numbered in the frame > headers (if you check the format page you'll see > what I mean). Sorry, I don't :( I've split into individual files and found that shorten compresses some files better and flac others. However, in total shorten does better. I was just a little surprised, because I thought flac would always out perform shorten? Cheers.

flac worse than shorten ON SOME FILES
had to fix the subject... was getting under my skin! yeah, could you put up the FLAC version of the worst track that is less than 20 megs compressed? (I'll have to grab it with a 56k modem). by worst I mean the one where shorten beats flac by the most. also: 1. what version of shorten are you using? 2. what command-line options for flac and shorten did you use on this track? thanks, Josh --- Mark Powell <M.S.Powell@salford.ac.uk> wrote: > On Thu, 8 Feb 2001, Mark Powell wrote: > > > Sorry, I don't...

flac can occasionally be worse than shorten
well, I took a look at the files. from my knowledge of shorten there are two things it does that flac doesn't do: 1. it estimates the mean of the signal for each block, subtracts it out and stores it separately. but this is pretty useless for the predictors that shorten uses as they are pretty insensitive to the mean (try different values of -m from 0 to...

New URL redirect checks
I don't have an opinion on the URL shorteners, but how about the original question? Redirection can be extremely useful in general. Shortening URLs is only one of its possible applications. FWIW, CRAN uses (303) redirect itself, e.g., https://cran.r-project.org/package=MASS is redirected to https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/MASS/index...

the road to 1.0...
...5 wasn't available, but when I decompressed and Shoren didn't throw a sanity error my way, I figured all was well. I burned 5 copies, only to find out 3 days later that halfway through one track, one channel cut out for the remainder of the track. So, two ways that FLAC is far superior to Shorten.. incorporated checksums, and much improved error recovery. I see etree.org users as more of archivists than music fans, since we place so much emphesis on bit-for-bit accuracy. Using a codec that makes this job easier for us is a very welcome thing! If you (or anyone else on this list) can keep...

I already shortened the DTMF duration, but I need to change the time elapsing between them. The first thing I achieved by changing a parameter in asterisk.conf, but how do I conquer the second goal?

how to import from SPSS without shortening variable names

How to shorten ringing stop detection on X101P clone?
When x101p clone receive ring signal from phone line, my voip phone start ringing. But, if caller hang-up at some time, phone continues to ringing 10 second more. How can I shorten that time? Pause betwen incoming rings on my phone line is 4s, so when x101p clone (wcfxo driver) do not receive next ring signal after 4.5 sec, call should be consider as ended. What should I change to set that time (4.5 sec) for incoming ring end detection?

FLAC status
...e with the same from the original .wav. They were all perfect. I didn't use the -V option just in case of any chance of mis-reporting. I hope to test it with the complete collection of ~41GB uncompressed, but it's a matter of finding the time. I currently have these files compressed using shorten. I was interested in how much FLAC could improve on this. The figures for the files I processed are: wav shn flac GB 8.54 5.51 5.11 % 100 64.5 59.8 Extrapolating that over the ~41GB, means it looks like FLAC will save me ~2GB over shorten. BTW That's shorten 3.1 which puts the seek tables...
