Hark_NatCole.wav   (Properties say that  this .wav file is  a  "Mpeg 
Layer 3 Audio"

So I guess that is why I'm getting the below error, would that be correct ??

lame "Hark_NatCole.wav" "Hark_NatCole.mp3"  Unsupported data format: 0x0055

I forgot to say that I'm running a X86_64 box and there is no lame.i386 
on my repos.
