Nathan,

I'm afraid the last couple of releases have not been good. I tried a
different way to launch flac and lame to do the conversion and it didn't
work out too well.

Until I find time to release 0.30, I suggest you grab the latest code
from svn and use that.

Hmmm. Later revisions are transcoding to a temp file and renaming it,
which will use "mv" on Linux/Unix but I had assumed it will use "move"
on Windows.

I'll check for compatibility before I release 0.30.
