DSP_guru,
you stressed that latest BeSweet version does support libvorbis.dll available on Rare Wares, which means speed gain.
I remember following your discussion with the maintainer of that site and the author (John33) over at everwicked.com.
But being unable to recover that thread, I ran into problem what to do with that dll (~93kb), because normally it must be registered via regsvr32 or regdrop which puts a copy into system folder, right ?
But both apps tell me that dllregistry entry point was not found and that maybe a corrupted libvorbis.dll resides in memory.
Maybe I didn't think about that much, but that's the way to handle dlls, isn't it?
But what about certain versions of dlls, which are situated in a program folder, which have the same name as the "normal" dll?
Are they not registered at programm startup, because otherwise there will be a conflict with other programs relying on the original one...
I know it's really basic, but how does it work ?
:rolleyes:

the libvorbis.dll isn't an activex-dll, so you don't need to register it. (it doesn't have a CLSID !). just put it in the BeSweet folder.
for more info, read here (http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?s=&postid=107315#post107315).

Registering DLLs? I don't think that was the intention. I usually just drop the DLL files in the proper system folder and go. The problem with replacing them is like you said though...other apps might have issues with newer versions.

There is already a thread here in the audio forum where DSPguru explains how the DLL's are linked.

EDIT- Doh! He beat me to the post :-)
