Well I suppose this will take some trial and error then. I'm pretty stubborn, so if it does work, I will find it. I want this to work with gapless, VBR, and using the batch file, because I know LAME is the better encoder. But then, I have BladeEnc's command's memorized after using it for several years... and LAME, although it looks much the same, is all new to me.

BUT I WON'T GIVE UP.
