[Mingw-users] MP3 Mingw Library?

[Marius M. <ma...@pa...>]

Hi folks,

Some time ago I developed a complete GUI system for DOS in C++ and it =
was quite good.  Now I want to rewrite it as an alternative powerful =
shell for Windows (95).  My questions follow.  Shell events (like mouse =
moves over buttons) triggers a sound to play.  I can play WAV files, but =
I want also to support MP3 files.  Is there any mingw library for MP3 =
out there?  Also, any mingw library for playing .AVI files?  I guess a =
library for AVI files is not nescessary, since the windows API probably =
handles AVI files.  Is this correct?  If so, can anyone send me a sample =
of playing an AVI using the API (sounds strange saying it like that, =
eh!).

Thank you.
