		Installing Lame

		On Windows
		The default Windows installer installs the Lame executable in the ext directory under the DAISY Pipeline installation directory.
		
		Other versions of lames may be found amongst the links listed on the Lame website

		On Mac OS X
		The DAISY Pipeline.app application now bundles a Universal Binary build of lame.
		
		If you want to use another version you can choose to install lame separately, for instance from UNIX port systems such as MacPorts or Fink
		On Linux
		It is recommended to install lame via the standard package system used by your Linux distribution (e.g. DEB or RPM). See your distribution documentation for more details.
		
		
		Configuring the Lame path in the DAISY Pipeline
		
			If you are using the Pipeline GUI, go to Windows > Preferences > Paths and make sure that the LAME path entry points to the LAME executable (e.g. C:\lame\lame.exe)
			If you are using the Pipeline CommandLine version or have embedded the Pipeline as a component in another system, do the following:
				
					Locate the pipeline.user.properties file by navigating to the Pipeline installation path (e.g. C:\Program Files\Daisy Pipeline\) and find pipeline.user.properties within that directory.
					Open pipeline.user.properties in an XML or text editor, and make sure that the entry with the key pipeline.lame.path points to the lame.exe file.

		For example, if you installed Lame to C:\lame\, the resulting element in pipeline.user.properties should read:
		
	<entry key="pipeline.lame.path">C:\lame\lame.exe</entry>
