Passing "-h" to LAME from BeSweet?

[evilclive]

When I need to change the bit rate of a MP3 file, I've been using
C>besweet -core( -input Source.mp3 -output 00.wav -2ch )
C>lame --cbr -b 128 -h 00.wav Output.mp3

My computer's speed is such that LAME 3.98.2 will encode an hour-long WAV file to MP3:

in 8 minutes at q=2 (with the -h switch)
in 4 minutes at q=3 (the default setting)
in 2 minutes at q=7 (with the -f switch)

Rather than messing about with intermediate WAV files, I'd rather use BeSweet to transcode in a single step.
However:
C>besweet -core( -input Source.mp3 -output 01.mp3 ) -lame( --cbr -b 128 -h )

The duration of these transcoding operations shows that both were performed at the standard q-value of 3.

Comparing 01.mp3 and 02.mp3...
Files compare OK

So how do I pass a "-h" switch to LAME from BeSweet?

You don't need BeSweet Lame accept mp3 files like input:
lame --cbr -b 128 -h Input.mp3 Output.mp3
