Hi DOS user!

I updated my site about DOS mp3 player, libraries and tools.
http://www.8ung.at/dos/player.htm

Here are some news in the mp3/ogg DOS scene:

- MPXPLAY ( http://www.geocities.com/mpxplay/ ): many features, very often 
updated, source code avaiable. Includes support for _all_ kinds of mp3s 
(variable bit rate, mp3pro etc.) and for the OGG 
(http://www.xiph.org/ogg/vorbis/index.html) file format.

- LAME/Bladeenc: Current DOS version of LAME is downloadable at 
www.opus.co.tt/dave/index.htm ! Bladeenc developement is stopped. Both are mp3 
and OGG Encoders.

- New or updated ALLEGRO/DJGPP (C/C++ for DOS) libraries:
+AllegroMP3 http://nekros.freeshell.org/delirium
+AllegroOGG http://nekros.freeshell.org/delirium
+Alog http://lyrian.obnix.com/alogg/


What is the OGG file format:

It is a music format like MPEG Layer 3 (mp3), but:
+ it is free
+ and has smaller files with better quality!
Look at http://www.xiph.org/ogg/vorbis/index.html for more info!


More links are at my site.

Have a nice day!
flox
