Converting to OGG with EAC (ERROR!)

'm having some problems encoding into Ogg with EAC.  I'm getting an error when it tries to convert the wav to ogg, supposedly from oggenc.exe...

I set it up normally, had it detect drive settings, etc, and just changed it to Ogg Q6...  I downloaded the vorbis-toolki 1.0.1 (and tried 1.1.1) from vorbis.org, extracted it, moved it to another directory, and pointed EAC to oggenc.exe ( and oggenc2.exe ).  When I tell it to extract to compressed, it extracts the wav, but then says:

The external compressor returned an error!

Options: -q 6 -N 1 -t "YMCA" -a "INFORMATION ETC"... -q 6 -a "%a" -t "%t" -l "%g" -d "%y" -N "%n" -G "%m" %s -o %d -o "Long path\Ytmp60-!5.ogg" "Long path\Ytmp60-!5.wav"

File: LongPath\YMCA.wav

What am I doing wrong???

Thanks!

What is your arguments line in the setup? This looks weird as heck:

Options: -q 6 -N 1 -t "YMCA" -a "INFORMATION ETC"... -q 6 -a "%a" -t "%t" -l "%g" -d "%y" -N "%n" -G "%m" %s -o %d -o "Long path\Ytmp60-!5.ogg" "Long path\Ytmp60-!5.wav"

You have -q 6 there twice, you have an extra -a, -t, you have a couple of -o's, there's that weird "..." there...

What's the actual line in the config?

Program ... used for compression: E:\ogg\oggenc2.exe


Additional Command Line Options:  -q 6 -a "%a" -t "%t" -l "%g" -d "%y" -N "%n" -G "%m" %s -o %d

Yeah, I thought it was wierd too... I just copied this from somebody's example ( on this forum I think)...

Do I have a wierd version of the encoder or something???

Code: [Select]
Ogg Vorbis:
 3. Set file extension to .ogg
 4. Locate 'oggenc.exe'
 5. Use command line -a "%a" -t "%t" -l "%g" -d "%y" -N "%n" -G "%m" %s


taken from case's site found HERE

FIXED!  It works only when I delete all the parameters, I included what you just mentioned, and got the same error, but now it works

Why?  How can I change the parameters without adding copies of them (which is what looks like what was happening)  Notice it is an "Additional Parameters" field.
