Several questions
« on: 27 Mar '07 - 01:52 »
I couldn't seem to find the info on my own which is not normal, normally, i can find anything i want to know somewhere on google

anyway, here is my scenario: i want to replace an mo3 for a popcap game with my own music
i have decoded like 10 mp3s to wav and combined them to a single wav since the mo3 filename was hardcoded into the exe >:-/

1. when i tried to calibrate lame v3.90.3, i got the error message "Encoder produced no output"
does mo3 only support 3.96* ?
i could not seem to find any info on this error message

2. i calibrated oggenc using the gui but i could not figure out how to start the wav encoding using the gui

3. i calibrated oggenc again using mo3enc and when i run mo3enc -m6 "f:\myfile.wav" "f:\myfile.mo3" i get 'Error: This is not a recognised file!'

would it be possible for someone to compile a dll to replace the bass.dll that came with this game that would call lame.dll to open an mp3 files with the same name (or better: random files from the same folder) and return the data that lame.dll returns?

You can convert modules like it, xm and s3m to mo3, streams like wave, mp3 and ogg are fundamentally different and cannot be converted to mo3.

Is your commandline correct? ("lame %i %o" at least)

You could have BASS to open the mp3's ::). Go to the BASS forum for that :).

yah, after i posted the first post, i quit searching and started browsing and figured out just what mo3 is, hence, the nm in my second post

the command line for lame was correct, i copied and pasted into a dos box and it worked just fine (of course replacing the variables with values) and i was running with lame in the same directory... i never figured out what the problem was but it doesnt matter since i cant do what i was trying to do anyway :p
