Hi! FYI, the web site http://www.kolabore.de/ where we offer our own music is now completely vorbisized. :-) Because of the many releases we switched from direct download links to a simple database/cgi, so if you stumble over any problems, please let me know! Thanks and bye, Moritz --- >8 ---- List archives: http://www.xiph.org/ar...

...ood by people who are neither native English nor German speakers) with as little spelling and grammar errors as possible. :) Of course it would be also important to know whether I got anything wrong (content) and feedback about the readability of the layout is appreciated. The URL is: http://www.kolabore.de/ENGLISH/info/howto_ogg.html This page cannot be reached from within the site yet, so everything can be changed without having consequences ... flame me for every bad thing I did, and thanks a lot in advance! :) Moritz P.S.: I was wondering whether I am allowed to use some Xiph/OGG/Vorbis log...

...round information: Some friends and I are making music with our computers for some years now. We release our tracks on the Internet for free for private use, both in the original module format and currently MP3. Within the next weeks or months (depending on the leisure time i get), our web site www.kolabore.de will be vorbisised for reasons I won't have to explain in here. :) While we definitely plan to continue releasing our music without asking money for it from private persons that have internet access, we're also interested in protecting and commercially distributing it through the label...

Hi, <p>here's my €0.02 on that topic. First of all, all those new tags are total overkill to be standardized. They're only useful for people who both tag OGG files for a living and listen to classical music only. Imagine what will happen when the Jazz fans, and the Techno fans, and the Rock fans and who knows else demands his very own, customized + standardized set of tags. And

...s not a stereo related artifact that has been introduced by the lossy channle coupling, because encoding a mono version of the clip doesn't make it go away. I deleted the old bassrumble demo on my university account. The new demo can now be found at ftp://instinct.student.utwente.nl/pub/groups/kolabore/ogg/ - the .WAV clip is smaller and instead of a 350kbps demo it contains one encoded with -b 64 and even a LAME encoded MP3 at the same average bitrate. Check out the .txt for more info and some opinions. Depending on what you prefer, I even put two identical archives (rar and a tarball) there....

Hi! Today, I found an encoding bug with a new tune by me. http://www.uni-karlsruhe.de/~us87/ogg/vorbis_bassrumble_demo.rar (2.1MB) contains the original .WAV in 16bit/44.1kHz and an .OGG encoded at 350kbit/s. I found the bug when listening to the 128kbit/s version, but encoding it with that high bitrate didn't change a thing. The deep bassdrum contains a rumbling, knocking sound (the first

...skspace, and with OGG even at high fidelity. :) As said above, this experiment also shows what has been added by the encoder, in this case the rumbling in the middle/lower frequency spectrum. Those who are interested can now download differences.zip from ftp://instinct.student.utwente.nl/pub/groups/kolabore/ogg/ . It contains a single .WAV file. You can make those difference-samples yourself pretty easy, too. All you need is a wave editor that supports inverting and mixing two samples plus some tool to decode your .ogg back to .wav. For my experiments, I used CoolEdit and Winamp's diskwriter. E...

Hi, it seems that vorbis.com is down (DNS lookups fail). Are there any other up-to-date sites that offer binary downloads and do not refer to vorbis.com?

Hi! According to ftp://ftp.isi.edu/in-notes/iana/assignments/media-types there hasn't been any MIME type registered with OGG yet. What will it look like? audio/ogg, audio/prs.ogg, audio/basic or something like that? I'm asking because .ogg files are displayed as text in browser windows as long as it isn't registered. Netscape for Linux claims not to need a MIME type in its

Hi! While writing a bug report to the Sonique authors, I also thought it might be useful to ask for a better handling of the OGG Vorbis comment tags. This lead me to the question on what could be included in the comments at all, since custom tags are allowed. The idea was, for example, to write whole song lyrics into the .OGG or maybe even a small story about how the weather was when the song

Hi! Inspired by the discussion about mixing Vorbis streams and so on I came to the question whether Vorbisstreams can be, just like MP3, reencoded without further loss. As I heard, and I am pretty sure that it's true, MP3 files can be decoded and reencoded unlimited times without further quality loss (of course the same encoder with the same preferences has to be used all the time). Is this
