--alt-preset standard -Y not working

[rickytraynor]

Using EAC (v0.9 b4) and LAME (3.90.3) and can't get

--alt-preset standard -Y

working. After ripping the compression appears to take a fraction of a second - and there is no MP3 file produced.

Was using

--alt-preset standard %s %d

successfully - but want to try

--alt-preset standard -Y

to see if I can save space without hearing any significant difference.

Is it because %s %d always need to be there?

Anyone any ideas?

I now know that the %s %d are needed - stand for source and destination.

According to the EAC tutorial at http://www.ping.be/satcp/tutorials.htm the %s and %d parameters aren't required if you change the Parameter passing scheme to LAME MP encoder from User defined encoder.

I've done this and it seems to work fine for me using the latest versions of both EAC and LAME.
