March 11, 201412 yr *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, 201412 yr by jaclaz
March 11, 201412 yr Author 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. Edited March 11, 201412 yr by LostInSpace2012

(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, 201412 yr by jaclaz
