[vorbis-dev] WinAmp Streaming

[Louis]

The Shibatch mpeg decoder for winamp has a checkbox that lets u switch
between the NullSoft mp3 plugin and the Shibatch one... I guess looking at
that source you will be able to see how to "disable" the Nullsoft decoder
and test for http:// before passing it to the correct plugin
