INTRODCUTION:
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Cdex is a is utility which can record Digital Audio (DA) tracks from CD into the files.
The recorded audio tracks can be stored as WAV or MP3 (MPEG-1 Audio Layer-3) files.
Cdex is using the Adaptec's ASPI library Manager to communicate with the CD-ROM device, make
sure that you have installed the ASPI manager properly!
The latest version of Cdex can be downloaded from
http://www.cdex.n3.net
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS:
1) Microsoft Windows 95/98 & Windows-NT4 SP3
2) Adaptec ASPI for Win32 Manager
3) Digital Audio Extracting capable CD drive
4) Intel Pentium or compatible processor
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
HOW TO INSTALL CDEX:
There are no special installation requirements, extract the zip file to a
directory where you want to install CDex. Once installed, you can
start the Cdex application by selecting the CDex.exe. For more detailed information
please consult the help file !

KNOWN PROBLEMS:
On some systems, CDex crashes during startup, this is caused by the Delrina Windows Codec.
You can circumvent the problem by disabling the encoder as follows:
During starup, CDex is enumrating all audio compression codecs installed on your system.
Very rarely, the existence of a particular audio codec apparently triggers this crash.
To resolve the most likely codec conflict, go to Control Panel->Multimedia->Devices->Audio Codecs,
search for and select a Delrina sample rate conversion codec (used by a program called WinFax),
and click Properties->"Do not use this codec". (I do not imply the fault is with Delrina.
I don't yet know why this conflict occurs, but I've seen this also with other programs.)
If you don't want to disable the Delrina Windows encoder, you can set the WinEncoder
variable in the CDex.ini file. However, when doing so, you can not use the
Fraunhofer Windows MP3 Codec. To disable all Windows Codecs, open the CDex.ini file
(located in the Windows Directory), and search for the following line:
WinEncoder=1
And Change it to
WinEncoder=0
Save the CDex.ini file, and you are all set.
