    No libraries found at "codecs"
    using default title: getting results

    RetroCode seems to have problems finding its codec-libraries.

    Two possible remedies:

    1. trivial solution:
    try to run RetroCode from within its installation directory (instead of the GOODNEWS/Music folder)

    2. better solution:
    supply the codec-folder when running RetroCode by adding the following switch to your commandline-call like this;
    code -cod "c:\Program Files (x86)\MMSGRU\RetroCode\codecs"

    hth,

    Hi, I got the same issue but none of the 2 remedies work….


    C:\Users>cd..
    C:\>cd program files (x86)
    C:\Program Files (x86)>cd mmsguru
    C:\Program Files (x86)\MMSGURU>cd retrocode
    C:\Program Files (x86)\MMSGURU\RetroCode>cd codecs
    C:\Program Files (x86)\MMSGURU\RetroCode\codecs>"c:/program files (x86)/mmsguru/retrocode/code.exe" "d:\FINALOUT\NEW\AT\AT100001_WAVADPCM_0KBS_05.wav" "d:\FINAL OUT\NEW\AT\AT100001_WAVADPCM_0KBS_SMAFMA2_0KBS_05.mmf" -cod "c:/program files (x86)/mmsguru/retrocode/codecs" -s 8000 -c 1
    No libraries found at "codecs"

    With backslashes it doesn't work either…

    May someone could help me ? It would be very nice….

    Thx,

    Hey Zum,

    try the following:

    cd "Program Files (x86)\MMSGURU\RetroCode"

    code -v

    Does this show something like this:


    $Revision: 1.23 $, $Date: 2009/03/26 20:54:14 $

    -Components-
    retroBase 1.9 (alpha 0, Mar 26 2009 21:55:55)
    retroApple 1.4 (alpha 1, Mar 26 2009 21:55:58)
    retroBeatnik 1.9 (alpha 1, Mar 26 2009 21:56:29)
    retroG711 1.3 (alpha 1, Mar 26 2009 21:56:37)
    retroMpeg 1.8 (alpha 1, Mar 26 2009 21:56:02)
            LAME 3.96.1
            libMAD 0.15.1 (beta)
            libFAAD2 2.6
            mpeg4ip 1.3
            libFAAC 1.28
            libAVcodec 51.63.0
            libAVformat 52.18.0
    retroPanasonic 1.6 (alpha 1, Mar 26 2009 21:56:06)
    retroQualcomm 2.1 (alpha 1, Mar 26 2009 21:56:42)
            TIA 50 ANSI-733 20040315-025 RetroPatch 0.3
    retroWave 1.8 (alpha 1, Mar 26 2009 21:56:14)
    retroYamaha 1.9 (alpha 1, Mar 26 2009 21:56:34)

    If so, then your installation of RetroCode seems intact.

    Now, given your example, run the following:
    code  d:\FINALOUT\NEW\AT\AT10001_WAVADPCM_0KBS_05.wav d:\FINALOUT\NEW\AT\AT10001_WAVADPCM_0KBS_SMAFMA2_0KBS_05.mmf -s 8000 -c 1

    Does that result into a properly converted file?
