Hi everyone, My name is Tord Jansson and I'm the creator of BladeEnc. I'm very delighted to see that someone has created an open and patent-free sound format which seems to have the qualifications to be on par (or beat) even the best proprietary formats. Congratulations to everyone involved! I would like to help making Vorbis a popular format for compressed audio and have been thinking

Hi all, I've just posted another version of vorb_enc.dll (w/source code) at http://xtractor.sourceforge.net/vorbdll-20000626.zip It will still work as a drop-in replacement for bladeenc.dll (just rename the files that your ripper creates from MP3 to OGG), but will also accept info for the ogg comment header in the vorb struct in the format union of the BE_CONFIG struct. I'll be

Hi, I released a BladeEnc-style wrapper for the Ogg Vorbis 1.0 codec which works with my CD ripper ACXtractor. You can download it from http://www.marvintec.com/en_download.htm Many thanks for all this great work ;-) <p>Best regards Stefan Schulz/ MarvinTec mailto:support@marvintec.com http://www.marvintec.com http://www.marvintec.de <p>--- >8 ---- List archives:

I've put together a first cut for a Win32 DLL using the BladeEnc interface. Right now, it's just a drop-in replacement for BladeEnc.dll that ignores all encoding parameters passed to it and uses the info_A vorbis_info struct (same as the encoder_example). It's not particularly useful as of yet, but you can rename it to BladeEnc.dll and use it with any number of rippers out there

I have having problems trying to take a file recorded with Monitor and convert it to MP3. When I use 'play' to play the .wav file, it sounds fine. After bladenc'ing it, it plays at lightening speed, and the voices are all high pitch. I tried using sox to resample to 32000 before encoding, but that didnt work either. Do any of you convert your .wav files to mp3? Monitor call:

I'll be out for the next 3 weeks, away from a net connection. So anyone who wants to improve my Vorbis Tools package, please do because I am not, and send any patches to Monty or somebody else with commit access. Have fun, Kenneth --- >8 ---- List archives: http://www.xiph.org/archives/ Ogg project homepage: http://www.xiph.org/ogg/

Greetings. In looking through the mail archives, I don't see any mention of parallelism of the vorbis code (particularly the encoder). I was wondering if anyone was looking into this at all? Either with threads, and/or on some kind of parallel machine (e.g., a Beowulf cluster)? I see very little mention of threads in the source code, which leads me to believe that they are only there for

As far as I can see, transcoding could be usefull for people who do not primarly care about quality but about filesizes. One could assume that such a user would have a collection of mp3's at 128kbps or higher bitrates, and uses an encoder like BladeEnc or Xing. He wants to take uses of ogg's supposed quality and transcode his 128-or-higher files into 96 or 112kbps oggs to save diskspace.

In all the abx'ing and ear testing I've done in the past for my classical and jazz music I have never seen or heard bladeenc output worse than xing. (worse than lame, yes) Now, to sorta keep this ON topic. I have never heard a an xing, blade OR lame encoded mp3 sound better than a Garf tuned RC2 encode of my Jazz and Classical stuff, (not a large sample set). Also, I haven't used

I'd like to write a DLL wrapper (BladeEnc/lame_enc style) for libvorbis. I pulled down the CVS tree today, and with very slight changes (missing typedefs for int64_t, int16_t, etc...) got it to build using gcc 2.95.2 in Win95. Unfortunately, the encoder_example segfaults. I get the same results from Cygwin as well. On a linux box with egcs 2.91.66 it builds cleanly, and appears to

One thing I must note before I begin is that, I probably just am not that well skilled at listening, but I can hear no difference between vorbis, mp3, and wav at the bitrates I encoded them at. lame 3.83 (beta) was used to encode the mp3s and mpg123 was used to decode. The current (Jun 8 00) encoder/decoder examples were used for vorbis. mp3s were encoded at 128 kbps, and vorbis is unknown

Hi, if it comes to mp3... my 'old' Duron-700 delivers a rip-and-encode performance six (6!) times faster then 'single speed' (bladeEnc 0.94.2). So take the cheapest Duron box available, and you will be happy, for real small money.

Hi, If you check out: http://people.ne.mediaone.net/mjbedy/iamyou.wav You will find a clip that causes an interesting problem with the RC2 encoder. (I have not tried any earlier encoder.) This clip is the first 15 seconds of "I Am You" from Depeche Mode's recent "Exciter" album. It is a quiet passage with a few interesting things going on sonicly. I suggest you

Hi Kovacs, >subj. I can compile the library on vc6, but it seems that it doesn't >export anything. Has somebody similar experience? I've built it using VC6, though I didn't use the project files in the vorbis_vc6 subdirectory, so I can't comment on them. You should be building the library as a static library, and not a DLL -- if you want to build the library as a DLL,

>>You shouldn't do that. Converting mp3 to >>vorbis can ONLY decrease the quality. No doubt the people who want to do this have the sound file in no other usable format. They have no choice. Since MP3 has legal issues, they may very well stand to benefit from such a conversion when there are no alternatives. No need to criticize them for being in this predicament.

I would very much like a lowpass option because for FM radio broadcasting I don't want to encode frequencies above 15khz. I'm waiting for this option before switching to ogg from mp3(lame).

Hello, I am interested in recording my LP's from my stereo to my computer and then burning to cd. If I understand right theres no way to save as oog and then burn ? Thanks NewbieMark

Smack my curiosity, but I encoded some songs in Vorbis mode 2 and tried to be able to distinguish the difference between that and the uncompressed WAVs. (*smacks self*) but here's what I noted: It's actually kind of hard to tell the difference :) (and I consider myself to have a decent set of ears, though not anywhere near the best) I got my accuracy to about 90%, but I couldn't
