winamp cannot find mp3 encoder

[stevehtowcester]

Fixed

Thanks guys.
I have installed Winamp v5.9.0 and now installed the Shoutcast DSP v2.4.1 and all works great.
Keep up the good work, love Winamp.

Shoutcast Source DSP still uses Shared\lame_enc.dll
but lame_enc.dll isn't included with Winamp 5.9 because the Lame mp3 encoder is now embedded in enc_lame.dll instead.

There's a separate Shoutcast Source DSP for Winamp 5.9 installer which includes lame_enc.dll (v3.100.1)

Now, i have looked in this folder and it DOES indeed have the DLL file installed. So I am confused as to why it will not detect it. I have uninstalled and reinstalled several times and it did not fix the issue. I have no idea what to do. I cannot find any information on how to fix this. Please help, I am at an impasse.

the latest version of Winamp is no longer using the Lame.dll
but is using in.mp3.dll
which could point to an upgrade instead of doing a clean install of Winamp.
With a clean install you also delete the Winamp folder in your program files , if you still see the lame.dll , you upgraded.

I have the same problem.
Just installed the 2019 C++ distributable.
Then installed Winamp v5.9.0. build 9999
Now I can't double click on my music files and have them auto play.
On Winamp load, I get an error message saying
"Unable to find the MP3 encloder dll (lame_enc.dll).
Please make sure it is in the correct location.
The Source DSP will now abort loading until resolved."
Please help, what do I need to do?

Hello, ive been trying to set up my winamp to broadcast music to others. However, Winamp refuses to do anything and tells me the following:

"Unable to find the MP3 encoder dll (lame_enc.dll).
Please make sure it is installed in the following location:

E:\Program Files (x86\Winamp\Shared"
