- KNOWN PROBLEMS:
-
- On some systems, CDex crashes during startup, this is caused by the Delrina Windows Codec.
- You can circumvent the problem by disabling the encoder as follows:
-
- During starup, CDex is enumrating all audio compression codecs installed on your system.
- Very rarely, the existence of a particular audio codec apparently triggers this crash.
- To resolve the most likely codec conflict, go to Control Panel->Multimedia->Devices->Audio Codecs,
- search for and select a Delrina sample rate conversion codec (used by a program called WinFax),
- and click Properties->"Do not use this codec". (I do not imply the fault is with Delrina.
- I don't yet know why this conflict occurs, but I've seen this also with other programs.)
- If you don't want to disable the Delrina Windows encoder, you can set the WinEncoder
- variable in the CDex.ini file. However, when doing so, you can not use the
- Fraunhofer Windows MP3 Codec. To disable all Windows Codecs, open the CDex.ini file
- (located in the Windows Directory), and search for the following line:
-
- WinEncoder=1
-
- And Change it to
-
- WinEncoder=0
-
- Save the CDex.ini file, and you are all set.
