Also, Spoon, is the encoder SSE or SSE2? The help file says SSE2, but the CPUs it mentions, the P3 and Athlon XP, only support SSE. Or does it use whichever is available?
It looks like it only runs on systems with processors that support SSE2. I just ran the executable on my Athlon XP, and the encoder reported that it was not build to run on my system.
Got an error for you. I'm encoding from/to a mapped network drive in Vista. I also tried a non-mapped network location. The "native" codecs handle this fine (WMA, Ogg Standard). The "quasi-CLI" codecs such as Ogg Lancer (I also tried the Nero M4A codec to be sure), don't work.
I can confirm that this works fine on XP running dMC r11.5. Since I haven't upgraded my XP system to dMC r12 yet, I can't say for sure that it's just a Vista-specific problem, or a problem with dMC r12 in general.
Here are the error codes I'm getting.
Error converting to ogg vorbis (aoTuV Lancer), 'M:\Music\Test.mp3' to 'M:\Music\Test.ogg'
Unable to write to stdin pipe.
Error converting to m4a Nero (AAC), 'M:\Music\Test.mp3' to 'M:\Music\Test.m4a'
Error writing audio data to StdIn Pipe [clEncoder::EncodeBlock]
These codecs work fine when encoded from/to a local drive in Vista.

Reason: Forgot something
Using dMC on a network drive, mapped or no, is always a little buggy. Your problem is probably that dMC is trying to make a temporary decoded file to re-encode to ogg but something about the drive being networked causes this to fail.
