BeSweetGUI bug - omitting azid section

[Fr4nz]

Hi Danni.

Well the problem is this: when I want to make the audio from VOB to MP3 via LST file, b76 makes the job perfectly.
BUT after beta 76 -azid commandline is misteriously ignored, so, for example, if I want to encode the track in Surround 2 or I want to lower the LFE level of 3dB simply I can't do it because Besweet is ignoring azid commandline!

These are the screenshots:

As you can see again from the logfile azid commandline isn't added and so I don't have any control over the downmixing! I hope this will be fixed in next betas!
Luckily direct AC3->MP3 transcoding isn't affected by this bug!

Hi Fr4nz,

Try b80 (http://dspguru.notrace.dk/BeSweetGUIv0.6b80.zip)

[Fr4nz]

Ok Danni, this b80 makes the job correctly!

Can I give you another advice??
Could you make the GUI leave the additional switches I add to the alt preset field in the LAME window (for example I add to "standard" "-b 112")? Because if I change window or close the GUI it always resets the alt preset field to default values and if I have to navigate between Besweet GUI windows it's a pain in the ass to rewrite additional switches everytime! :(
Ok sorry for my bloody english, this is a pic and should explain the concept better :D :

Oh last thing: this is the LOG of the LST->MP3 transcoding:

Danny I've just tried also the batch encoding which would be more comfortable and flexible compared to the LST file pre-created with notepad.

BUT like in b77-78-79 with LST files, your GUI omitts the Azid commandline section. Here's the log:

Updated b81 (http://dspguru.notrace.dk/BeSweetGUIv0.6b81.zip) :)

New:
----

General : Added Startup Mode Options. BeSweet GUI / BeSweet Wizard
GUI - Batch Mode : Fixed Azid Line for "List to ..." Using Substream of 1st File
Wizard - Output Tab (OTA) : Added "Set Delay to" CheckBox
