Lossless Audio Checker VS Tenacity

Yeah, sure. I use Lossless Audio Checker, which is single threaded but seems to generate fewer false negatives. That is to say it's slow, but doesn't flag genuine lossless files as probable mpegs as much. My biggest beef with LAC is how annoying it is about its log files. It doesn't save them in the folder with the FLACs so I have to manually copy every log file from my Documents folder to the proper location.... Source: about 1 year ago

You can use this to check for artificially inflated bitrate/bitdepth, its fairly accurate, or fbits which can detect exactly how much of the bitdepth is being used. Source: almost 2 years ago

How does this differ from https://tenacityaudio.org? - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago

They got bought by new owners and then developers decided to add telemetry to track app usage. Telemetry or tracking in free (as in freedom) and open source apps is a big no, and after the devs doubled down on their decision against huge community backlash, the community decided to fork the app on GitHub and called it Tenacity. The new project gained the same amount of stars as Audacity in just under a month IIRC,... Source: 11 months ago

IIUC both were projects spawned after Audacity added telemetry to their release builds. The telemetry in Audacity is behind both a build flag, and a runtime opt-in setting (although it was originally going to be opt-out, hence the uproar (I need to go fact-check this, it's been a while)). So, if you install Audacity through your distro's package manager, you're probably not getting any telemetry, opt-in or... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago
