Hello everyone, ff123 compiled Monty's branch of the RC1 encoder, see his post on r3mix.net forum: http://66.96.216.160/cgi-bin/YaBB.pl?board=c&action=display&num=994299736&start=30 Anyway it only supports ~128kbps mode, so I did a quick listening test with some files that bugged vorbis beta4. grace.wav - the right channel is still a bit watery, and I think this can be seen

I noticed that clipping occurs in lossy audio compression even if there is no clipping in the original file (though the original file has peaks that are just below the maximum). I know that this happens due to all the filtering involved during compression, but I'm wondering just how audible this clipping is because I don't hear anything wrong. I mean, as things are now, is it safe to say

Hi. Winamp version 3.0 has been announced. There will be no public beta and final version is expected for Christmas. Winamp 3.0 will be completely re-written version, but current plug-ins and skins (for winamp 2.x) will NOT be compatible with Winamp 3 (though this will be addressed in later winamp 3 versions). More info: http://www.winamp.com/nsdn/winamp3x/ Anyway, the reason I'm sending

Mike... did you look into this? I posted a waveform from a file generated by ogg123 dumping to a wav (so that audio driver problems were eliminated). It looks to me like ices2 is restarting the vorbis encoder in a non-gapless way when it stops and starts the encoding (to change the stream id and update the metadata). Because I'm doing crossfades from one track to another, this shows up.

a comparison between the two formats can be read at http://www.digit-life.com/articles/oggvslame/index.html . i first heard of this from Vorbis Extreme ( http://solair.eunet.yu/~aldov/ ). anyone see any problems with the review? -- noodlez: Karol Pietrzak GPG/PGP-KeyID: 0x3A1446A0 --- >8 ---- List archives: http://www.xiph.org/archives/ Ogg project homepage: http://www.xiph.org/ogg/ To

Monkey's Audio lossless compressor (currently win32 only, free but not open-source except decoder) author is thinking to implement a kind of audiophile-quality lossy compression which would filter "noise bits" that are hard to encode lossless but which are (or should be) inaudible and thus improve lossless compression (avg. 300-450kbps). I think that implementing something like this

Hi, I have a newbie question, and a not-so-newbie one. I've just found out about Ogg, and I haven't been able to find a clear answer in the many webpages this proyect has (btw, why not create just one site instead of vorbis.com, ogg-vorbis.com...). The question is, does Ogg use perceptual coding, like mp3 does? And if so, would it be possible to build an encoder in such a way as to

Hi, there. Although I'm not a hacker at all, I noticed an audible noise on Beta 4 encoded files. So, I'd like to report it here. I ripped and encoded 'A Day Without Rain' on the album with the same name By Enya into Vorbis using Oggenc and Oggdrop Beta 4 from the Vorbis site. (You know, she is quite an encoder-killer.) At all the bitrates, files encoded by Oggdrop had audible

Hi, I have a track which when encoded with Mode_C or even Mode_E does not encode well at all ... It's a jazz flute track with a lot of plate echo. The flute (centred in the mix) almost disappears ... I am away for a few days, but if someone would like to look at this I would be grateful ... A small clip can be grabbed from my ftp server ... ftp.york.ac.uk in:

We all know that currently Vorbis is the only codec out there that doesn't add any silence to the decoded file, so when you decode your .ogg file the resulting .wav will be exactly the same length as the original one. This is very useful when encoding gapless songs (like live concerts...). But since Vorbis is a lossy codec, even though there is no silence added, sometimes you can still hear a

A record company is releasing next month what it calls copy-protected CDs which apparently cannot be ripped by CD readers.

Hi! Propably a stupid question, but where can I get those brandnew encoders from? It'd be great if someone could post those URLs to the list for people like me who don't read any forums (no time, no fun :P). Thanks in advance! Obtw, CVS would be fine, too ... but as long as the new code isn't merged to the main branch I feel pretty lost searching for it. Any help here would also be

I tested Vorbis encoder - beta3 version, and here are my thoughts: - In comparison to beta2, subtle high-frequency artifacts seem to be gone (though they were small in beta2). Good job there! :-) - Velvet.wav also sounds better, but transparent quality is reached at -b256+. - Horn.wav still sounds very sucky, mode -b256 gives ~100kbps (this is understandable because in this sample practically

I am forwarding your request to the FLAC development mailing list. ----- Forwarded message from Jamie Heilman <jamie@audible.transient.net> ----- Date: Sun, 8 Sep 2002 16:13:32 -0700 From: Jamie Heilman <jamie@audible.transient.net> Resent-From: Jamie Heilman <jamie@audible.transient.net> To: submit@bugs.debian.org Subject: Bug#160155: gapless playback Package: xmms-flac

I was doing some testing with RC2 and I noticed that RC2 doesn't encode past 19kHz with this clip (-b256 and -b350). There are no problems with this clip like it was before, but this clip contains signal past 19kHz which is audible as a faint high-frequency hiss - and that hiss is gone in the encoded file since RC2 cuts off at 19kHz. I think that -b256 and -b350 should encode at least up to

hello, i noticed that when i play flac files with xmms there is a gap between tracks, even on a continuous cd. is this supposed to happen? i thought that the file format was suppose to allow continuous playback. my first thoughts were that the program i used to rip (cdparanoia) was to blame. i uncompressed the flac to wav and spliced it together only find it playing correctly. my next

Hi! What are the assumed listening conditions in vorbis ? For example there are big differences in perceived sound when listening with headphones compared to listening with speakers. ( "super stereo effect" , different frequency response due to HRTF etc ... ). Is this stuff worth considering in a vorbis class encoder ? David Balazic --- >8 ---- List archives:

Hi all, Were there encoder differences between beta4 and 1.0rc1? A precompiled oggenc for Windows identifies itself as beta4, and from a certain mono file produces 53.3 kb/s files, whereas one I've compiled myself, identifying itself as 1.0rc1, produces 55.9 kb/s. Is this a feature or a bug? Also, all the links to images at the top of: http://www.vorbis.com/download_win.psp are broken.
