Splitting lossles leads to differed file size (FLAC, APE)
Posted: Sun Sep 16, 2018 2:50 pm
Hi,
I'm testing xrecode3, pretty neat program, but I have a problem understanding the choices I have, when splitting and APE image into the songs.
First, I have to use Encode instead of Extract, right?
Then, when splitting APE file, APE does not have a "lossless" option, only to use levels of compression. The default is at High, but after the split there is a 10% loss in the song files together compared to the initial one. So, either this is not true lossless or I'm missing somenthing
Thanks in advance
Andy
