Hi. Here are my patches and makefiles for compiling ogg, vorbis and vorbis-tools on DOS with DJGPP. They can build them from cvs snapshots and need minimal maintainance (even extract source lists from `makefile.am's). Everything seems to work, except one FP exception on encode at middle bitrates (lowest two and highest bitrates don't cause it) - I don't think it's my

As an optimisation to reading Ogg encapsulated files, I've been thinking about a strategy of reading entire packets out of the stream, and sending them to the decoder. This has the advantages that: * The packet is just a linear array of bits in memory, with length known in advance. * The routine which gets bits out of the packet is then trivial and possibly inlined. * There is no possibility

Just invented the above (subject) phrase. Maybe somebody would like it as a slogan or something...

Monty, could you please modify the archiving mechanism so that the current month messages are archived from the begining into the month-number directory where they will be afterwards? The current scheme makes people link to this month's articles with a URL that breaks afterwards. At least please provide a symbolic link or something from the directory that will later become correct (e.g.

I've tried to understand the codebook matter (but haven't yet had time to read the source). I want to understand how ibg is the flexibility resulting from packing the codebook in the header of every bitstream. Can we, for example, change the volume of the whole sound by scaling the vectors in the codebook? (My guess is that this wouldn't be enough, as we have to scale the floor of

The FAQ says (at its very end): > Does Vorbis support mid/side stereo modes? More than stereo? > > Vorbis has hooks for mid/side stereo and continuous balance stereo, > but the channel mappings for both are yet to be formally specified and > implemented. Currently, Vorbis channels are uncoupled. > This should be updated so that people know how good is Vorbis :) > Vorbis does

I happily downloaded the official beta4 winamp plugin as well as Mattew's versions with VCE interated and with/without the dialog. When I installed it winamp (v2.72) didn't recognize it (no vorbis plugin listed in the config, doesn't play ogg files) - same for all of them. I recompiled it myself from Mattew's source with vce - same results. It does recognize the old plugin when

Don't know if anybody is still missing the lame oggenc features for resampling, lowpass/highpass filters etc, but I wrote a little script that uses sox to do all the stuff I need to real-time encode oggenc from the radio, or any input device. #!/bin/bash DATE=`date '+%m-%d-%Y-(%H.%M)'` DESTIN=/video/music/perftoday export DATE=$DATE'-PerformanceToday.ogg' sox -V -r 44100 -c

I downloaded `file' for djgpp, and it verbosly identified my mp3 by bitrate, sample rate, mono/stereo, option bits, etc. WAVs are also uidentified well. Only vorbis was identified simply as "Ogg-Vorbis compressed sound file" without any info. So I decided I must fix this to replace my aliases that use `od' to read the bitrate and number of channels. Here is the result

Sorry for posting somewhat off-topic... Most my music files have names in hebrew (FAT32 partition). I dual-boot between a hebrew win98 (where these files are opened nicely by winamp, freeamp and any other program) and a hebrew win2000, where windows media player is the only program I've seen so far to open them. All others say "can't open file ???? ?? ???.ogg" (or .mp3) - both

Happy New Year from the Xiphophorus Team. It took longer than we thought, but I think everyone will agree this is our best release yet. With drastic quality improvements and new bitrate management features, this release brings us one step closer to 1.0. Along with all the lovely VBR modes you are used to, you now have millions more. oggenc's quality settings are 0-10 in increments of

The spec seems to be unclear on this: should two comment haeders who only differ in the order of comments be considered equevalent? VCE shows comments in the order read and allows to store them in any order (it has move up/down buttons). Comment editors with a fixed layout (like the commmon TITLE/ARTIST/etc. fields in PP's winamp plugin) don't show the order and give no control of it.

For those of you who want to be able to decode Ogg Vorbis files into other formats, SoX (the swiss army knife of audio programs) now has Ogg Vorbis support in CVS. It can read Ogg Vorbis files and export the audio in any format SoX supports. You can also write Ogg Vorbis with it, but, because of limitations in the design of SoX, only output at 128kbps is supported. Note: Instructions on how to

Ever considered creating make files for the Mingw? I've wanted to see if it worked with Ming but I've never had the chance to do so since I imagine it might also require some revisions to the code. (I'm not so hot at programming anyway.) --- >8 ---- List archives: http://www.xiph.org/archives/ Ogg project homepage: http://www.xiph.org/ogg/ To unsubscribe from this list, send a

Not vorbis-related, just I think I found a similar technique being used... The description of the MPEG-2/SVCD plugin on the nero site says that it can encode exacty to the size of the CD (to maximize quality given a size restriction). It also says (in a separate point) that it uses two-pass VBR compression. >From that I guess they do something like encoding a bigger-than needed file and then

Just found this one: http://camelot.kingarthur.com/phoco/ogg_vorbis/info.html It seems to have music dedicated to vorbis (by the names, don't have player here) and a link to an interview with Monty ("more information on the Ogg Vorbis format") and the artists seem very excited about it. The browser says the pages are quite old (Jul./Sep. 2001) but I don't remember it being

In advanced tag editting mode, the list of tags doesn't display unicode content of tags properly. A side suggestion: forcing english keyboard in tag name edit field would be helpful (when I edit many tags all in my language, currently I have to witch to english and back all the time). -- Beni Cherniavsky <cben@tx.technion.ac.il> (also scben@t2 in Technion) Common

Jonathan added to the proposal the following definition: ARTIST for information to be displayed on systems with limited display capabilities. it is not a replacement for the ENSEMBLE and PERFORMER tags, but typically will summarize them. As I understand the aim is to provide more compatibility with players (especially portable) that are so dumb as to display only "ARTIST",
