The FAQ entry tells you that only 8KHz mono samples are supported on some=

classes of machine, including possibly yours.  'Encoding not supported' c=
ould=20
quite conceivably mean 'I asked for 16KHz stereo and the audio driver gav=

an error' - try looking at the options for sidplay and see if it has samp=
le=20
rate / mono options that do the same things as the ones suggested for mpg=
123.
