Methods > Init and info > EnableInternalEncoders method

Remarks

Enables/disables the usage of internal encoders for MP3, Ogg Vorbis and Opus formats.

When internal encoders are enabled, which is the default behaviour starting from version 11 of the component, the encoding speed is around 60% faster.

Syntax

[Visual Basic]

control.EnableInternalEncoders (

bEnable as enumBoolean

)

[C++]

void control.EnableInternalEncoders (

short bEnable

);

Parameter

- EncodeFormats.MP3.Downmix

- EncodeFormats.OGG.EncodeMode set to OGG_ENCODE_CUSTOM

- EncodeFormats.OGG.Downmix

- EncodeFormats.OGG.ResampleFrequency

- EncodeFormats.OPUS.EncodeMode set to OPUS_ENCODE_CUSTOM

- EncodeFormats.OPUS.CustomString
