I've just started encoding some of my cd's to ogg with the new beta4-release, and noticed a few "bugs" .. [oggenc] (*) When using long filenames that make the "encoding.."-line not fit in one line, that line is repeated 1000 times on the screen (one for each .1 percent). That could be solved either by not including the filename on the updating line (but above or below it), or by using some cursor movements or direct placement instead (that would gain some marginal speedup as well ;) (*) When entering a tracknumber with the -N option, i have the choice of either prefixing it with '0' by hand for single-digit tracknumbers, or just leave it the way it is. When leaving it at single-digit, the filenames are sorted wrong, and when manually prefixing with 0, that extra 0 is also entered in the TRACKNUMBER-field. How about an option to prefix filename-tracknumbers only for single-digit tracks ? Fx. %N in stead of %n. (*) At silent areas in a song (extracted digitally with cdparanoia) the bitrate holds around 200 kps (-b 192).. That seems like a waste of bits to me (but i'm not an expert on this, so i'll leave that decision to you :) [ogg123] (*) When done playing an ogg (or list of oggs), ogg123 always exits with an segmentation fault. I tested this with both oss and null devices, with and without -v. It happens every time.

Can you look at the core dump to see where it crashed? Jeremy C.

Link libao to libpthread, and most likely that is then fixed (at least it was for me and some others :).> GerrySo long, David -- ___ Name: David 'Superkind' Roden / / _______ Mail: superkind@uni-neukoelln.de / /_/ ____/ ICQ: 3017094 \___ __/ IRCNet: #Berlin ==== \_/ ===== Logout fascism! --- >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.

That seems like a waste of bits to meThen it's not actually digital silence, most likely. Very very low amplitude hiss (and even the best microphones have this) is difficult to model in a transform encoder precisely. There *is* signal there... and hard to encode signal at that, because it's truly random :-) Monty --- >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.
