What is the best (preferable open source) media player for oggs? I'm on windows, and Windows Media Player is the best thing I can seem to find. I've looked at WinAmp, QCD, Sonique, and FreeAmp, and they just don't seem to have the media library functionality WMP has. Is there another player out there I'm missing?

I really don't see how anyone could stand WMP's 'extra features' so I find it surprising that it's the very thing you're looking for! jack. --- >8 ---- List archives: http://www.xiph.org/archives/ Ogg project homepage: http://www.xiph.org/ogg/ To unsubscribe from this list, send a message to 'vorbis-dev-request@xiph.org' containing only the word 'unsubscribe' in the body.

>>Freeamp is one of the only open source ones that I know of. It should play Oggs fine.<<So basically, I need to write my own. I'm busy right now, but I may get around to it this summer.>>I really don't see how anyone could stand WMP's 'extra features' so I find it surprising that it's the very thing you're looking for!<<I find WMP's features to be very powerful, much more powerful than something that only supports playlists. With WMP, you can import files from a whole directory tree, and WMP will arrange them by their tag info. Then, you can look at the tree, and play by title, artist, genre, or just look at everything. In addition, you can create playlists like you can in WinAMP, etc. This is the ONLY feature that makes me want to use WMP over some other audio player. If there was another player that had a full featured media library, I'd use it in a heartbeat.

It's the portalplayer chip, which has two arm7 cores in one chip. It's almost certainly doing software decoding, otherwise it wouldn't need such an expensive processor. -Dan> -----Original Message----- > From: owner-vorbis-dev@xiph.org [mailto:owner-vorbis-dev@xiph.org]On > Behalf Of Segher Boessenkool > Sent: Monday, January 14, 2002 10:50 AM > To: vorbis-dev@xiph.org > Subject: Re: [vorbis-dev] Ogg Media Player > > > > > "David A.
