Album art - requirements
...on some standard for providing vector graphic art, I would be more than happy to implement it from the very first release of Ogg Frog. (I do not yet provide art in my Ogg Vorbis and FLAC tracks.)

Album art - requirements
Hi, there was a thread a few months ago about album art, and how to embed it in an Ogg stream. The outcome was unconclusive, and kind of settled on the existing practice of adding a uuencoded image in a Vorbis comment, or similar. A better solution would be to embed those images as a separate stream, including hints as to what image represents (front cover, back cover, etc). The obvious

Compiling libogg and libvorbis using MinGW
Hi there, This is probably a rather stupid question, but being a bit new to the open source world I'd like to ask this question anyway: I'm trying to learn more about Ogg Vorbis, so I downloaded the source code for libogg and libvorbis. I unzipped them and tried to compile them using ../configure and make in MinGW. libvorbis complains that libogg is not installed even though I just

Virus in FLAC Windows installer
Just to let you know: The FLAC-Installer (downloadable from sourceforge) contains a W32/Backdoor2.AAKG virus, and so does the included uninstaller. Is this an error of my virus scanner, or did a virus indeed creep in? Cheers Vic

Support for CAF in flac command-line?
...R! Is the CoreAudio file format or its associated algorithms patented? QuickTime in general has many patents. A patent wouldn't stop me from writing the source code, but a binary couldn't be provided by anyone in a country that recognizes software patents.

...many, many patents. Unlike MP3, one cannot even distribute the binary of an Open Source player.

using "ov_open" in XCode
Thanks Conrad, but no matter what I try I'm dead in the water. I guess I'm looking for somebody who can help me through the ogg/vorbis installation process for Mac OSX. Maybe I did something wrong. - Downloaded libogg-1.1.3 and libvorbis-1.2.0. - ran the "sh ./configure" and "sudo make install" - opened each xCode project and built the frameworks. - copied the

[PATCH] Fix a couple of problems for compilers where int is 16-bits
Hi, The attached patch changes occurrences of serialno to use the type ogg_int32_t, rather than int, as int can be too small on targets where it is only 16-bits.

FLAC seeking error
I am writing a FLAC encoder/decoder and when I use the flac_static.lib that was compiled in debug mode in MS Visual Studio 2003, the seek_absolute function works fine. However, if I compile flac_static in release mode in the same environment, the seek_absolute function no longer works. No parts of my code change, the only difference is whether I link in the release lib instead of the debug lib.

OggDisk?
Hi! I've seen many new standards on the Xiph page. Have you thought about creating something like "OggDisk", that would correspond to CD, DVD, BD... disks? I mean data structure (propably on any filesystem) that could be used for audio and video (and perhaps for images too?). Desired features: - Ogg centric - designed to be filesystem/disk type independant (so that you can use

Support for CAF in flac command-line?
Thanks for the interest, Michael. I don't use Ogg, so I'm a little wary that standard FLAC would be left out of any Ogg Frog implementation. But I say that mostly out of ignorance. I have noticed that there seem to be two worlds for FLAC, inside Ogg and outside. It's important to be aware of the fact that many hardware devices support the FLAC format directly, without the

FLAC support for Android?
Thanks for the info, Dave. Speed is a very important feature, but there might be some risk choosing the FFmpeg decoder. They've had trouble with their encoder in the past, which tells me it's possible your users might one day run into a valid FLAC that the FFmpeg decoder won't handle correctly. A better suggestion might be to start with libFLAC, optimize as needed, and

Again: Next libvorbis release?
Hi there, I maintain the libvorbis, libogg and vorbis-tool package for Fink <http://finkproject.org/ >. Recently I had time to wonder about those again. In particular, since I was informed libsndfile self-tests fails with 1.2.0, but not with a version dubbed 1.2.1rc1 somebody sent me. Also trunk seems to contain security fixes.

Support for CAF in flac command-line?
Hello all, Is anyone here potentially up to the task of adding support for CAF (the CoreAudio Format) into the flac command-line? This would present minimal difficulty under OSX, due to the presence of the CoreAudio API, but the real challenge would be to support CAF on Unix and Windows - everywhere that flac is now available. Although the format is rather unknown, there are some very
