LAME version 3.98.2 available (port) (Announce)

On 01 February 2009 I finished my 32-bit DOS port of LAME version 3.98.2 using DJGPP version 2.04 beta.

A binary, a user manual in ASCII format, and fully configured sources plus some simple instructions on how to rebuild are available at http://www.bttr-software.de/ports/.

About: LAME is a high quality MPEG Audio Layer III (MP3) encoder licensed under the LGPL.

24 days passed, ZERO feedback, either I will break the silence or it won't happen at all :-|

The good things:

+ it seems to work mostly
+ nice "GUI" (see shot)
+ there should be acoustic quality improvements (= less loss), unverified by me

Less good:

- faulty filenames, BLAH.WAV should become BLAH.MP3 and not BLAH.WAV.MP3, MP3 is always audio, there is no JUNK.BMP.MP3 or BLOAT.EXE.MP3 (but at least here the obvious - just giving output name - is sufficient to get it) (see shot)
- decoding doesn't abort (-> hangs) if there is not sufficient space for destination file (see shot)

Maybe I'll have a look at it, but I only did the port for the community as I don't use LAME at all. Love my FM radio! ;-)
