LAME is a high quality MPEG Audio Layer III (MP3) encoder licensed under the LGPL.

Latest LAME release: v3.100(October 2017)

LAME development started around mid-1998. Mike Cheng started it as a patch against the 8hz-MP3 encoder sources. After some quality concerns raised by others, he decided to start from scratch based on the dist10 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, and with Lame 3.81 all of dist10 code was replaced, making LAME no more only a patch.

The project quickly became a team project. Mike Cheng eventually left leadership and started working on tooLame, an MP2 encoder. Mark Taylor became leader and started pursuing better quality in addition to increased speed. He can be considered the initiator of the LAME project in its current form. He released version 3.0 featuring gpsycho, a new psychoacoustic model he developed.

Today, LAME is considered the best MP3 encoder at mid-high bitrates and at VBR, mostly thanks to the dedicated work of its developers and the open source licensing model that allowed the project to tap into engineering resources from all around the world. Both quality and speed improvements are still happening, probably making LAME the only MP3 encoder still being actively developed.

How to Make Handbrake Libdvdcss Workable on Mac OS X El Capitan or Later

If your MacBook or iMac is running on Mac OS X El Capitan or later version and you need to make libdvdcss workable on Mac OS X 10.11 for your Handbrake DVD ripping, you are suggested to prepare yourself mentally. The Handbrake for Mac OS X 10.11 doesn't run as smoothly as the one abovementioned.

Case 1: El Capitan apparently broke Handbrake ripping copy-protected DVDs. Any clue what to do?

Solutions:
1) Disable SIP and reinstall libdvdcss on Mac El Capitan. FIY: SIP means System Integrity Protection, the new security system for OS X El Capitan.
2) Install a copy via homebrew ( a package manager).
3) Move software library to /usr/local/lib instead, which is not protected by SIP.

How to move libdvdcss file to /usr/local/lib?
• Create a new Finder window
• Go to /Library/SystemMigration/History/ through cmd-shift-G (<--copy the path from here also allowed) and manually proceed on inside Migration-some-gibberish/QuarantineRoot/usr
• Copy the libdvdcss.2.dylib file (Cmd-C)
• Apply cmd-shift-G to /usr/local/lib (no copy remember!)
• Take use of cmd-opt-V to move it (not copy) it to this location
• It will ask for your password and should then move it.

Case 2: Current libdvdcss version is 2.8.1 BUT won't install on OS X El Capitan unless it has been installed before upgrading. The problem seems to be that El Capitan does not allow the creation of the necessary folders in usr. If you installed it BEFORE updating to El Capitan then there is no problem. I tried to disable rootless but still no luck

Solutions:
1) Downgrade your El Capitan to Mac OS X Yosemite first and then download & install libdvdcss and OSXfuse on Yosemite before upgrading to El Capitan.
2) Generally, /usr/local can't be found on fresh installs of OS X 10.5 to 10.10. When you update operating system from Yosemite (no /usr/local directory) to El Capitan, /usr/local is generated automatically. If not, there might be something wrong with the El Capitan installer or your system.

The way to fix libdvdcss won't install problem is temporarily disable rootless, create the directory, make sure the 'restricted' flag is not set, and re-enable rootless.
