I tried to use the Frauenhofer mp3 codec and I thought I succeeded when removing winemp3 from the registry. But the entry gets created again the next time wine starts.... so how do I use the Frauenhofer codec instead of the winemp3.acm.so. The only way I found till now is by removing/renaming that file. That can't be the...

If Icecast2 works fine with AAC, shouldn't that be mentioned in the documentation? -- That Jack Elliott (541) 848 7021 KPOV 88.9 FM High Desert Community radio Producer, The Wednesday Point Host, The Sunday Classics On 5/15/2017 3:13 PM, Richard G Elen wrote: > You can send AAC-HE from a streaming client (LadioCast on Mac for > example) to an Icecast server and it'll broadcast

Marvin, fair enough. Via's licensing terms appear to apply to encoders and decoders only, and not to transports, such as Icecast ("An AAC patent license is needed by manufacturers or developers of end-user encoder and/or decoder products"), so using Icecast to transport an AAC-encoded stream is not a violation of the AAC is not mentioned in the Icecast documentation (that I can

Jack, I am using AAC+ encoded by Darkice and distributed on Icecast2 on a Ubuntu server. I had to install a number of open source libraries and compile darkice from source. No licence. non-free means you build each one stand alone and can't re distribute. Quality is excellent, and it runs on most players. I kept some notes [see below] I am using AAC+ to feed a couple of LPFM sites with

I must say this is a very confusing issue. I generate AAC+ on an open source system which downloaded some code during installation from the 3GPP source. It appears the encoding software is being freely distributed, and hardware which decodes the stream pays a licence fee at point of manufacture. We have such hardware. In a number of locations. One brand has AAC+ only, not AAC. I note VLC

Fraunhofer Institute for Integrated Circuits has stopped providing licenses for MP3 technology, "[...] noting that more superior audio formats have rendered the MP3 obsolete. Speaking to National Public Radio (USA), the Fraunhofer Institute said AAC has since become the 'de facto standard for music download and videos on mobile phones.' "

Hi! FYI, the web site http://www.kolabore.de/ where we offer our own music is now completely vorbisized. :-) Because of the many releases we switched from direct download links to a simple database/cgi, so if you stumble over any problems, please let me know!

Hello dear all, my windows game plays mp3 sounds. (the game is C-evo) the game runs fine under wine except for mp3 sounds. my platform is Fedora 9-WINE 1.0. The audio test in winecfg works fine. Trying to solve the problem, I"ve installed a mp3 Fraunhofer codec in wine (an exe file) ; problem remains. At linux level I have no mp3 codec installed. Does any one has a clue to such problem ?

Perhaps the devel list would be better, but a) i'm not subscribed to it just now and b) I'm lazy (dons flame-retardant clothing)... frankly, i'm rather tired of the lack of free ogg vorbis players for Mac OS; it doesn't look like iTunes is going to support the format anytime soon (and i have some real issues with its interface, too)...so, since I've decided to learn Mac OS
