    Encoder Error

    I am trying to encode a file to mp3 using LAME. I keep getting the error that the encoder has expired. Is the error referring to the Power Pack? I don't see it in Add/Remove Programs. I also tryed to reactivate it using ReactivatePP.exe--didn't help. I thought that the LAME encoder was free???

    Re: Encoder Error

    It had to happen some time, it has happened now - the patent holders for mp3 have contacted me demanding huge sums of money. To counter this: dBpowerAMP Music Converter R11 will be pulled out from beta early (next 8 weeks), it will be combined with Aux Input and File Selector (these should not add much to the install size,

    The LAME encoder is free, using it is not, as there are patents on the mp3 encoding process, as explained in my link above.
