jaclaz Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 (edited) *Problem Solved*All I needed to do was download this:http://downloads.xiph.org/releases/oggdsf/oggcodecs_0.73.1936.exe^DirectShow Filter for Ogg and Flac. Now, my Windows Media Player 9 can support .flac and .ogg playback. It's pretty cool actually :-)Once that DirectoShow filter was installed, ImgBurn now can recognize and decode .flac files without any problem. I'm listening to a CD of .flac songs as I type this.Well no. I mean you originally posted about an issue with a .ape file, not about issues with .flac or .ogg Does that download also "cover" .ape files?jaclaz Edited March 11, 2014 by jaclaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZortMcGort11 Posted March 11, 2014 Author Share Posted March 11, 2014 (edited) Well, I have the ape Filter, but haven't gotten around to testing it yet... I'll get back to you on that. But originally, I did mean both .Flac and .ape files wouldn't burn. See the title of this topic :-)All of this DirectShow stuff is needlessly complicated. I emailed the author of Tiny Player, and he was kind enough to point me to the correct filter for Win9x support. Just browsing the xiph.org website, I had no idea what I was supposed to download... it's all a bunch of unexplained gibberish over there.

(I left it from desperation, judging that the time invested in understanding which §@ç#ing codec was inside which stupid "codec pack" - BTW often with malware included - etc. not worth the time needed, got VLC and lived happily since ).jaclaz Edited March 11, 2014 by jaclaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
