LameXP - audio conversion

[lautrepay]

Description: 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. Multi-threading is implemented by processing several audio files concurrently.
Output formats (encoders):
MPEG Audio-Layer III (MP3), using the LAME encoder [built-in]
Ogg Vorbis, using the OggEnc2/libvorbis encoder with aoTuV [built-in]
Advanced Audio Coding (AAC), using NeroAAC encoder [separate download!]
Free Lossless Audio Codec FLAC [built-in]
Uncompressed PCM / Waveform Audio File (WAV/RIFF)

Installing this
"Windows Media Audio (WMA), using NCH Software decoder [available as separate download]"
doesn't make it stealth.
Would be nice to recognize the presence of "wmawav.exe" in LameXP's directory. Same for NeroAac.
However, one can live without those 2.

Nice to see LameXP portable!

P.S. I owe a translation for this software for a long time...

That's true. If you need the wma decoder the software won't be stealth and the portability will be affected.
Anyway, I can perfectly live without it

Thanks again! Not to have to rely on closed source pieces of third parties is a great advance.

@moderator: Is it possible to split this thread from deathcubek's first post and move it to the Portable Freeware Update forum? Thanks in advance.
