AROS and Hollywood playing mp3 files

Post by Juan Carlos »

I have compiled my Sirena Player for AROS and I did a test, and the mp3 files don't playing because Hollywood uses the mpga.library for this file format, and AROS hasn't the mpega.library as Amiga OS 4 and 68k, but in the Amigaworld the people say that AROS uses mpega_libmad clone, and Why Hollywood not use this lib under AROS? it is a bug or for the license problems as they said me.

Due to licensing issues Hollywood must only be used with the original 68k mpega.library by Stephane Tavenard. Because this library is not available for AROS, mp3 playback currently isn't supported on AROS.
