This is a GUI for some Mpeg Audio-encoders and Mpega player!


Features:
~~~~~~~~~
* NEW * TheMPegEncGUI is now Key-mail Ware which means that you
        have to send me an e-mail with your name to get a key-file
        so you can get rid of all annoying requesters and text! :-)

        It's absolutely free, I just want to know how many cool
        users I've got ;-))
        Your name will ofcource not be used for anything else
        than to create your personal keyfile which will be sent
        back to you ASAP.
        (Display names without permission is illegal here in Sweden!)

* NEW * Fixed a bug which cause files to be deleted after they
        where played by Mpega!

* NEW * Lame commandline was incomplete! Fixed.

* NEW * Fixed alot of other bug. (I haven't had the time to do extensive
        bugtesting for like 8 month!)

* NEW * Added two "undocumented" switches for Lame.

* NEW * Colours added to the date/time info that is written to the
        output when encoding.

v1.52
** The opened/closed state of the console is saved.

** Fixed the bug with the config which made mostly
   Pegase and BladeEnc to get the wrong settings!

v1.51
* Now you can use the ID3 TAG settings when encoding
  with Lame (v3.50)!

v1.50
* Now supporting BladeEnc!
* You can open and close the output (console) manually if you want!
* I have made a little "process manager" to use when
  breaking an encoder or something!  (If someone knows
  how to extract the name out of a CLI process I would
  be glad to hear..!)
* Actual parameters is shown in the GUI!
* It doesn't specifies default values unless you want it to!
* Ncode is now supported!
* Lame(r) 3 supported!
* You can have the files saved in the same drawer
  they came from when using the list, instead of having
  all files end up in the same drawer!
* You can set the stacksizes of the encoders!
* You can select many files in a list and
  encode them in one stroke!
* You can have the source-file(s) deleted if you want!
* You can have date and time written in the output to be
  able to see how long time the file(s) took to compress!
* You can select output, to send it to KingCON och to a file..!
* You can print the commandlines to the encoder if you want
  to compress your files without the GUI!

This package includes the "tabs.gadget".

What systems these encoders actually work with am I not quite sure of,
so don't be alarmed if it says (above) that an encoder doesn't work
on a particular system (PowerUP, WarpOS..), cause it might, or might
not..!
There might also be other ports of some encoders that this program
is not fully compatible with!

If anyone would come up with some other encoder I don't know about
and you want a GUI for it, just tell me where to get it and it
might end up in TheMPegEncGUI v1.6 :-)



TheMPegEncGUI will soon be in MUI!!
How does that sound to you users????
Please send me an e-mail and tell me what you think and get
a key-file for free at the same time!!
