libdlna_sb.dll is considered a type of Dynamic Link Library (DLL) file. Dynamic Link Library files, like libdlna_sb.dll, are essentially a "guide book" that stores information and instructions for executable (EXE) files - like cdriphelper.exe - to follow. These files were created so that multiple programs (eg. Songbird) could share the same libdlna_sb.dll file, saving valuable memory allocation, therefore making your computer run more efficiently.
Unfortunately, what makes DLL files so convenient and efficient, also makes them extremely vulnerable to problems. If something happens to a shared DLL file, either it goes missing or gets corrupted in some way, it can generate a "runtime" error message. Runtime is pretty self-explanatory; it means that these errors are triggered when libdlna_sb.dll is attempted to be loaded either when Songbird is starting up, or in some cases already running. Some of the most common libdlna_sb.dll errors include:
- Access Violation at address - libdlna_sb.dll.
- libdlna_sb.dll could not be found.
- Cannot find C:\Program Files (x86)\Songbird\extensions\sharing@songbirdnest.com\platform\WINNT_x86-msvc\lib\libdlna_sb.dll.
- Cannot register libdlna_sb.dll.
- Cannot start Songbird. A required component is missing: libdlna_sb.dll. Please install Songbird again.
- Failed to load libdlna_sb.dll.
- The application has failed to start because libdlna_sb.dll was not found.
- The file libdlna_sb.dll is missing or corrupt.
- This application failed to start because libdlna_sb.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem.
Your libdlna_sb.dll file could be missing due to accidental deletion, uninstalled as a shared file of another program (shared with Songbird), or deleted by a malware infection. Furthermore, libdlna_sb.dll file corruption could be caused from a power outage when loading Songbird, system crash while loading libdlna_sb.dll, bad sectors on your storage media (usually your primary hard drive), or quite commonly, a malware infection. Thus, it's critical to make sure your anti-virus is kept up-to-date and scanning regularly.
