Program options dialog page "Wave encoder"

DFendX can encode wave files captured by DOSBox to mp3 and ogg files. The wave-to-ogg encode oggenc2.exe is bundled with DFendX (because it is open source). Because of license problems with the lame encoder, it can not be bundled with DFendX.

On this page you can define where the encoders are located and which command line parameters they need. In the command line parameters you can insert the two placeholders "%1" and "%2". The "%1" placeholder will be replaced by the path and name of the input file and the "%2" placeholder will be replaced by the path and name of the output file.

The default command line parameters for the mp3 encoder (lame) are:
-h -V 0 "%1" "%2"

The default command line parameters for the mp3 encoder (oggenc2) are:
"%1" --output="%2" --quality=10

The place holder %1 will be replaced by the name of the input file (including the complete path to the file) and the place holder %2 will be replaced by then name of the output file (also including the complete path to the file).
