Yes, when you finish downloading the two files, you need to run the lamewin32.exe After it finishes installing the Lame encoder, you need to copy the vbs script to your Lame directory. You can then run the VBS script by double-clicking or hitting enter on it. Make sure your jukebox is connected to your system and enter the drive letter of the jukebox if the music is already on the jukebox. Alternatively, if you haven't yet copied your music to the jukebox, enter the drive letter and directory you have your music in. HTH.

It wants to see a file called '_dirname.talk' in the folder. That _dirname file contains the name of the folder in MP3 format. One of the rockbox programmers has released a script to create these _dirname.talk files automatically see http://joerg.hohensohn.bei.t-online.de/archos/speech/mp3ClipGen.vbs to get that script and http://www.mp3-tech.org/software/encoders/lamewin32.exe to get the lame executable which it requires. Install lame, copy lame.exe and the mp3clipgen.vbs script you get from the first link above to the same directory, then run the mp3clipgen.vbs script. You will be asked to enter the folder where all your music is stored. Enter the path to your jukebox (make sure it's connected). That is, if your jukebox is drive letter J:, enter 'j:\' and hit enter. The script should, in a few minutes, give you a success message. What I wasn't sure of.
