-h %w %m works but not -h -b (high quality variable bit rate set to 192
kbs) %w %m.  i tried the following too:
*  -b %w %m
*  %b %w %m
*  -h -j %b %w %m


also the ripping works fine, but not the encoding.  i could try command 
prompt but i'm not that familiar with it.  would i do that with the 
'encoder command-line' + the 'encode file format?' my example would look 
like this :

[user]$ lame -h -ms -b192 *.wav ~/Opus/%A/(%y) %d/%t %n.%x

this didn't work however, and when i tried using the (%y) it gave me an 
unidentified token.  ripping is working fine, but not encoding.
