Shorten (shn) x64 supoort

[olavs73]

Hi. I would love a 64 bit support of the shn codec.
Any plans for it? Or is it any major issues preventing it?
Thanks. Keep up the great work!

I did not think there were 64 bit libraries for it.

New member, had old version R14.x long ago used to tag, convert my music from various sources. Today new PC with Win10 and rebuilding the music library restored some old archived files that are in shorten .shn format.

Just downloaded R16.x (current) version thinking of upgrading but it appears there is no ".shn" decode codec for this version, dBpoweramp does not even recognize the files for selection.

Is this a correct assumption, and/or is there a work around to convert .shn files to .flac ?

Any suggestions ?

You can uninstall the 64 bit version of dBpoweramp then force the 32 bit version to install:

Then install the shorten codec from codec central.

another option is to use foobar2000 to convert the shorten files to FLAC.
