m3w Files

News for Version 3.3

As a major change, the volume compression dialog has now sliders to set the different parameters and the dialog window can be used concurrently with the main window. This allows interactive changes to the parameters. Simplifying good settings for this most complex part of m3w.

There were two bugs removed from the auto gain code, which prevented changes of the settings to take effect without restarting the encoding. Further, the checkbox for auto gain will now be disabled if the soundcard does not support a mixing device.

Four new parameters were added for use in configuration files or commandlines to control the switching between linear and logarithmic scales, the switching between input and output volume of the volume meter, as well as setting the repeat check box in the input file section, and to start with a detached resizable volume meter. Now, I hope, all settings that can be made in the GUI can be made persistent by saving them to a configuration file.
