Sorry, computers and software are tormenting me recently! I remember it
worked before, but now it just prints that message and nothing more. It
just made the task of getting audio contained within oggs burnt onto a cd
as mp3s for an mp3 cd player, that little bit easier.

I guess if they include vorbis decoding, why should they not also include
flaac decoding, etc, etc.
