The LAME encoder outperforms early encoders like. LAME is required by some programs. In many programs released as free software (e.g., ), LAME must be linked for MP3 support. This avoided including LAME itself, which used patented techniques, and so required patent licenses in many countries. This section relies largely or entirely on a single.
Relevant discussion may be found on the. Please help by introducing to additional sources. (January 2011) The name LAME is a for ' LAME Ain't an MP3 Encoder'. Around mid-1998, Mike Cheng created LAME 1.0 as a set of modifications against the '8Hz-MP3' encoder source code. After some quality concerns raised by others, he decided to start again from scratch based on the 'dist10' MPEG reference software sources. His goal was only to speed up the dist10 sources, and leave its quality untouched. That branch (a patch against the reference sources) became Lame 2.0.
The project quickly became a team project. Mike Cheng eventually left leadership and started working on (an MP2 encoder). Mark Taylor then started pursuing increased quality in addition to better speed, and released version 3.0 featuring gpsycho, a new he developed. A few key improvements, in chronological order: • May 1999: a new psychoacoustic model (gpsycho) is released along with LAME 3.0.
• June 1999: The first variable bitrate implementation is released. Soon after this, LAME also became able to target lower sampling frequencies from MPEG-2. • November 1999: LAME switches from a GPL license to an LGPL license, which allows using it with closed-source applications.
