problem trying to use toolame

[paulrll]

when i try to use toolame besweet creates an mp3 file with the default lame options (128kbps etc) and an mp2 extention. no errors are produced.

also, given that besweet is using bundled dlls, what are the path specifications for lame.exe, ssrc.exe etc for in the gui?

Try to use the lastest BeSweet beta and the lastest GUI. It may work, and also it uses the lastest Toolame.

@paulrll

This may sound silly, but in your command line, try changing -toolame( -m s -b 192 -e )to-2lame( -m s -b 192 -e )
When you get lame at 128kbps that's a sign that besweet has not understood your command line correctly, the default output is lame 128 CBR. I tried your commandline and it works fine with besweet 1.5b23, but 1.4 stable appears to require the -2lame switch rather than -toolame.
