The featured encoders ... are:

LAME 3.97
LAME 3.98.2
iTunes 8.0.1.11
Fraunhofer IIS mp3surround CL encoder v1.5
Helix v5.1 2005.08.09


They're looking for more testers. I figured that some people here are still concerned about this bitrate/format combo, so please consider testing one or two samples if you have a chance.

A clarification: this is to test the codecs, not the testers. Smile You can submit test results anonymously; there should be little pressure on this test to identify problems.

Update: The test is scheduled to end on November 22nd, 2008.

If you want to read more before starting, the address of the test is http://www.listening-tests.info/mp3-128-1/. If you want to start right away, have a look at the readme. Please note that you do NOT have to test all samples - it is a great help even if you test one or two!

Info: The people who did not start testing already but who would like to participate, it would be very nice if you could focus especially on samples: 5, 6, 8, 9, 10, 11, 13, 14. Sample 1 already has 25 valid results, so please do not test it (of course, if you already did, you can submit your results for it, but if you just started, maybe invest time and effort in testing the aforementioned samples first).

Improvements in lossy codecs can benefit from contributions by golden ear participants. Therefore it seems logical that an invitation is posted in this forum Smile
