Making an MP3 encoder using LAME

[Andy]

I've looked around and can't seem to find the basics of this question:

If I have the LAME MP3 encoding engine, what is the first step in creating a simple interface (in vb) to use the encoder?

I've got the commands and such but I can't seem to get the login down as where to use the engine.

Has anyone tackled making an audio ripper in vb? I have source code but it;s in c++ and some of it's in c#. If anyone has ever used or seen Easy CDDA Extractor, It appears to be written in vb.net and I'd like to make my own custom app. Any help is welcome

i'm reallyinterested in this as well, tell me if you find out anything. what makes you think easy cdda extractor was written in vb.net?

I can only assume it's vb because of the look. I am probably wrong though!!

It'd be fun writing the app I think cause you can tailor it to your specific needs and won't have to fool with settings and all that jazz.

lets try to make one. have you started anything yet?

I have the interface designed and I have the latest build of the LAME .exe


can you program in c++? I have source code for one written and we could learn from that.

I did something simmilar a long time ago, but in VB6

I think it is possible to convert from VB6 to VB.NET, but I was using an encoder similar to LAME, actually, I think it's based on LAME (I think), it's called Blade Encoder...

i've done console apps in c++
can you post what you have?
i really want to pull this through..

What you see in that thread is all I have...
