[vorbis-dev] Kenneth's Second Commit

[Matthew James Brown]

Just out of curiosity.  Why don't you just use the filename for the time
being for the name that is printed out in winamp.  Right now unknown track
<encoded by xiphophrus... isn't very useful when playing tracks.  Just a
thought.  I'd do it myself but I can't compile under anything but cygwin and
I'm not sure how to build the winamp .dll that way.

Thanks,

Matt
