Vorbis - Jan 2006 - vorbis comment - mac os x

hi!

I'm sure this has been asked a few times before, but I couldn't find 
anything in the list archive :)

I want to set the 'track number' and 'album' parameters for four
ogg
files. I'm on Mac OS 10.3.9. How do you recommend I do this?

I'm looking at the 'vorbis comment' of my files with VLC and ENCODER
is
the only field that appears to be set...

Thanks!

There's a utility called 'vorbiscomment' that's part of the 
commandline vorbis-tools. It works fine on MacOS, but be warned
that it only handles audio-only Ogg Vorbis files, not video. Most 
players will also display at least some of the comments.

Everything but the encoder vendor string is optional, so your files 
might just not have this information.

HTH,

Sometimes building from the source yourself is the easiest route.
A nice option to have with open source software.

Glad you got it working,
