Installing EAC (II)

After all drives are configured, the wizard will ask you if you wish to install the LAME MP3 encoder or not. If you did install it previously, leave the option checked, otherwise uncheck it or review the previous page, install the encoder and check the option.

If you chose to leave the option checked, in the next screen the wizard will automatically search your drives for the location of the encoder and it will find in C:\LAME, if you have followed my recommendation:

It's better to allow our encoder to use the recommended settings from the Hydrogen Audio forum, because the people there are specialists and involved in the development of this MP3 encoder.

If you wish to use the CDDB service (a free service that gives you the audio track information of the disc so that it relieves you from the trouble of writing the file names), you'll have to enter your e-mail or any e-mail you wish in this wizard page.

This is the last screen of the configuration, it's ok to leave it as it is, to show the only the options that a beginner would understand.

That concludes the installation of EAC, there are just a few more configuration options that we should browse through.
