The current version 3.95.1 of the MP3 encoder LAME (amiga-news.de reported) was recompiled (296 KB) by Christian Rosentreter using libnix - this makes the ixemul.library obsolete for LAME. The user has to take care for a big enough stack, though (see readme file).
Update: (18.01.2004, 07:04, snx)
The archive has been updated on Jan. 17th, 22:43 - it should work now without manually setting the stack. (snx) (Translation: wk)

Skinplayer: Professional skins for Frogger, AmigaAMP and others
Skinplayer is a GUI programm for Frogger, AmigaAMP, Mplayer and other
audio tools which are capable of using professional skins. Those are available
here in terms of freeware.
Skinplayer supports the buttons only currently, sliders, state displays or fonts are not supported by now.
More information is available within the readme.
Because of an error within Hollywood's brush refreshment the position of the
skinplayer has been fixed by the author, i.e. the window cannot be moved. It is possible to disable the fixed window within the tool types
but then the buttons will not be updated until they are clicked on.
