Mp3 2 MiniDisc "PluginSDK" released
You can now download the Mp3 2 MiniDisc PluginSDK by selecting "PluginSDK" in the menu. The "PluginSDK" is simply a little "template" on how to make a Mp3 2 MiniDisc Decoder / Playing plugin. This first release is very simple, but more info will follow in the next update. This should however be enough to get some out of it ;)

The new version will include support for "decoder" / player plugins, which means that the program no more is locked to the Windows Media Player decoder and formats. The program will also support a gap of 0 seconds as well as Winamp3 XML Playlists. XP-Themes support is also added. Think there was some more... but don't remember now ;D

As you may have noticed, there hasn't been any new version jet :/ I have experienced huge problems running the program in Windows 98 (the program crash with kernel error etc..). I have spent hours searching the net to find a solution for this very strange problem. I still haven't found it, but I'm hoping to find it. I may release the beta version soon, but haven't decided what to do jet. More info will follow.

Mp3 2 MiniDisc v1.25 in Spanish PcWorld.

In the december edition of IDG PcWorld in Spain you will find Mp3 2 MiniDisc included on the "Sonido Digital" (in english something like "Digital Sound" i think !) CD-Rom. PcWorld in spain wanted to provide their readers with programs realated to Digital Sound "prosessing", and found the Mp3 2 MiniDisc program interesting. I therefore gave my permission to include the program on their CD-Rom.

The program have also been included in two magazines from Malaysia, but I have never got a copy of those send home to me.

By the way, a new version of Mp3 2 MiniDisc will soon be released (I hope). The upgrade will contain some fixes of minor problems, and some functions suggested by people sending "bug-reports and mail to me" :) It will also have support for the new Windows XP themes.

Version 1.25 released.
Finally Mp3 2 MiniDisc v1.25 is released. This new version will include support for some optical-out supporting soundcards (Have a look in the optical-info section for a list with supported and not-supported cards).

Also improvements to the Labelmaker have been made. You can now select what font you want to use, and you will see a preview of your label before you decide whether to print it or not +++. The preferences dialog has been redesigned and the program's design has been improved. Also A CDDB function has been added to the Labelmaker.

Other noticeable changes is that you know can choose to have a custom picture in the background. If someone makes a "skin", please tell me, and I will make it possible to download it from this webpage.
