libvorbis and besweet

[dTb]

Hi, I heard that vorbis 1.0.1 is just around the corner and that cvs compiles of it were on rarewares, so I grabbed the libvorbis.dll and put it in the besweet folder.
However after encoding a file a look at the besweet log says

Using Ogg Vorbis v1.0 dlls (http://www.vorbis.com).

Using ogginfo it states

Vendor: Xiph.Org libVorbis I 20020717


I'm using besweet v1.5b23 via oggmachine v0.6.0.2

Here's the full logfile

I've tried searching for some answers but haven't come up with anything, I appreciate any help.

Did you really grab the right libVorbis from Rarewares? Please check again if libVorbis.dll is really in the BeSweet folder (and that you use the right one). I use it very often and had no problems with 1.5b23.

tips :
1. use dependency walker to see if there's a missing dll that libvorbis.dll needs.
2. try deupxing (http://www.xiph.org/archives/vorbis-dev/200311/0033.html) the libvorbis.dll
3. use filemonitor to see if BeSweet.exe finds libvorbis.dll

Thanks alot DSPguru :D
I used dependency walker which found that libmmd.dll was needed, apparently some ICL compiled files need it. It can be found at rarewares under the mp3 section.
I don't know a lot about this stuff, wasn't sure where the dll needed to go but wacked it in the windows/system32 folder as that seems to be the normal spot and now libvorbis is working fine.

In case anyone's wondering, I read at Hydrogen Audio that there are some improvements for lower bitrates with this version, as that's the range I normally use for movies I figure it's worth trying.

Now I know why it always worked for me. I have so much RareWares stuff on my machine that libmmd.dll is always in my system32 folder. Funny, though.
