Both OggDropXPd 1.6 beta 13 & the modified version of CDex from the site i got OggDrop XPd 1.6 beta 13, and the ogg output plugin for winamp have a problem with this filename:

Pre Club Mix (Mixed by DJ Pete Gooding) - Cafe Mambo The Real Sound Of Ibiza - David Morales and Albert Cabrera present Moca feat Deanna - Higher (Mo and Al's Original Mix)

and this one

001_Pre Club Mix (Mixed by DJ Pete Gooding) - Cafe Mambo The Real Sound Of Ibiza - David Morales and Albert Cabrera present Moca feat Deanna - Higher (Mo and Al's Original Mix)

~~~~

first time error (refusing to encode the track) occured, i was encoding from CD to q3.5.
tried a couple times, on on-the-fly & not on-the-fly mode.
next, i encoded to .WAV using winamps (wa2.8) diskwriter.

I then attempted to encode to Ogg q3.5 using Peter P's vorbis output plugin. same error occured.

next, i tried doing the same with OggDropXPd 1.6 beta 13, same error again.

only way to make it work with that file name was to cut off everything past the "001_" (added to the filename by wa2.81 after diskwriting), then used OggDrop- it worked.

Basic point- does ogg vorbis encoders have a problem with lengthy filenames?
