rJPa is actually not an encoder, but a frontend to the Xing tompg MP1/2/3 encoder, which is illegally distributed with the program (tompg.exe mysteriously appears in \Windows\System32 after the installlation, and rJPa won't encode anymore if you delete it).

At least, unlike other tompg rip-off encoders, the rJPa author credits Xing in the About box.

A playlist builder is included in the installation. Might be an useful tool for players that can read .m3u files but do not feature a playlist manager, such as WinPlay3.

Also available here is an MP1/2/3 decoder developed by the same author. The decoding engine is based on the EldoS Sounds Delphi component, which by its turn is based on mpg123.
