LameXP - Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)


+ +What is LameXP ???
+
+LameXP is a graphical user-interface for a number of audio encoders. It was developed to support a huge
+number of input formats. File formats are detected reliably using MediaInfo. Compressed audio formats are
+decoded to uncompressed Wave files using suitable CLI audio decoders. Furthermore LameXP allows batch
+processing of multiple audio files. Multithreading is implemented by processing several audio files
+concurrently. All the third-party tools incorporated in LameXP are listed in the "About" dialog. The Nero AAC
+encoder cannot be redistribited due to licensing issues; it is availabel as a free download from the public
+Nero web-site. Note: LameXP does NOT use/need any "external" audio decoders. It neither requires nor supports
+any ACM Codecs or DirectShow/DMO filters! And it will NOT install anything of that kind on your system.

+ +

+ +What platforms does LameXP run on?
+
+LameXP is currently being develped and tested on the following platforms:
+
+The following platforms should work as well, but aren't tested extensively:

+ +

+ +My anti-virus software detected a potential threat in LameXP. Why is that?
+
+Occasionally your anti-virus program may mistakenly detect "malware" (virus, trojan, worm, etc.) in some of
+the files here. This is called a "false-positive" and the files are actually innocent/clean. It's an error in
+your specific Antivirus software. In case you encounter such problems, goto http://www.virustotal.com/ and
+check the file again with multiple Antivirus engines! And take care with results like "suspicious", "generic"
+or "packed". Those are *not* real hits, they are just wild speculation.
+
+Apparently Antivirus programs tend to suspect installers/uninstaller created with NSIS. Furthermore some
+anti-virus programs blindly suspect all UPX´d (packed) executables of being malware. Obviously this is a
+stupid generalization, so please ignore those warnings! Last but not least: Always keep in mind that this is
+OpenSource software! If you don´t trust the people providing the pre-compiled binaries, download the source
+codes and compile them yourself.
+
+DON'T SUBMIT ANY VIRUS REPORTS, UNLESS YOU HAVE VERIFIED THE INFECTION WITH MULTIPLE ANTI-VIRUS ENGNINES!

+ +

+ +Who created LameXP?
+
+LameXP was written from the scratch by LoRd_MuldeR <MuldeR2@GMX.de>. However it has to be noted that LameXP
+uses a number of thrird-party tools, which have been created by the individual authors. Moreover various
+people have contributed LameXP translations. Please see the "About" dialog for details!
