This is how it should go:

1. press "add file" button and add mp3 you want to convert

2. audio tab:
source: mplayer
encoder: vorbis

3. video tab:
format: bypass

----

However I get error message if I try to convert something to vorbis. :cry:

Most people will tell you that going from MP3 to Ogg is not going to deliver the benefits of going from lossless to Ogg. To make matters worse, MP3 and Ogg discard different pieces of info, so if MP3 is all you have, you should just stay with MP3.

If you however want to convert something to ogg vorbis, you have to go to folder where mediacoder is installed, open "codecs" folder there, and rename oggenc2.exe to oggenc.exe.

That way the error message I mentioned earlier disappears :)
