Long ago, when my hearing was a lot keener, Xing encoding in AudioCatalyst markedly improved upon Frauhofer encoding in AudioGrabber and was faster, so using a new implementation of what was a non-free product in Sound Juicer may provide a better result.
I am puzzled at Ubuntu's discarding it after Maverick Alpha2 and assume that it will be re-instated or simply discarded for the 10-Oct-2010 release. Meanwhile, despite refutation that has included false accusations of results remaining 128K CBR rather than 32-320K VBR, the settings used by me have simply worked well, whilst Maverick Alpha2 settings are fine but a little strident to my old ears. When someone 'comes clean' about Maverick intentions, I will try out some subjective comparison tests on younger, keener hearing ears.
It would be nice to think that there are no other questions, but I'm not yet convinced that it's actually broken, only mis-used, although that doesn't fit well with Canonical policy 'to fix what ain't broke'.
