You can get velvet.wav from here: http://r3mix.50g.com/velvet.zip (2MB)

Few questions concerning clipping
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

Cascading?
During the interesting interview that binaryfreedom has made with Monty
and Jack, Monty mentions cascading, a feature that will be added, quote:
"Cascading is the ability to make multiple passes through the frequency
spectrum, iteratively filling in more detail, like a progressive jpeg".
What are the advantages of something like this - does this generally
improves quality or is it used

Difference between compressed & uncompressed audio?
I would like is someone could give me a few hints on how to
distinguish whether a WAV file is uncompressed or it was
created by decompressing mp3 file - I usually could take a
look at the file through Sound Forge and look if there is a
freq. cut-off (usually above 16kHz) or if there isn't one -
then I can easily tell by listening if there are high-frequency
artifacts (common for mp3). Is there

Beta3 impressions
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

BT sues Prodigy over hyperlink patent !!!
Not related to Vorbis, but it shows how software patents
can be abused to the point where it becomes absurd...

Short block test
Frank Klemm made the clip to test short block switching -
it's made of series of short periodical 'pulses', and this period
gets smaller as time passes.
You can get this file at:
http://www.uni-jena.de/~pfk/Short_Block_Test.wav.gz.gz (1.6MB)
(uncompress it twice with gzip)
I used oggenc beta3 & mp+ 1.7.8
Oggenc gave 160kbps using mode -b 256
mp+ gave 350kbps (using

Stream integrity ?
While using ogginfo (command line util), I've noticed that
there's info on "stream integrity" (it says stream integrity=pass).
Does this mean that there are no errors in the bitstream
(which can happen if the file is corrupted)?

Some pre-RC1 listening tests
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

Patent troubles...
Hi everyone.
Reading all this posts about patent issues, I thought of something:
if, by some wild chance FhG (or some other audio company) manages
to prove in court that vorbis is breaking their patent rights, you could
do something like LAME developers did: release only source code and
let people do the compiling so that only users that are living in countries

Oracle unit test problem in Rails 1.1.2/Ruby-OCI 0.1.14
I''ve upgraded to Rails 1.1.2, and I''m trying to push this change through
to our build server (Linux/Oracle) and we are getting some errors in the
unit tests using Oracle. Looking at the data in the tests reveals a
precision problem. Looking at the tables tells the whole story.
My development database contains this table:

[LLVMdev] Debian packaging?
Okey dokey. I'll start setting things up.
I think what I'll do is start with 1.1 (or the infamous
and soon-to-be-released 1.2 :). Once that works, I'll
probably put together a CVS snapshot version.
I know LLVM currently supports ia32 and SPARC; is anyone
looking at any other architectures?

One important thing
Hi.
Since I'm new to this mailing list, I don't know whether this was discussed
in this mailing list, or if it is already fixed.
Anyway, the problem is that all audio encoders out there add a small amount
of silence to the start/end of the encoded file. This is usually a small
amount, around 0.03 seconds. Most of the time it goes unnoticed, BUT when
you have tracks that flow into one

Idea for gapless tracks
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

Lossless/lossy hybrid?
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

bug in codetools/R CMD check?

I have noticed an error message from R 1.12.x's CMD check for a while (apparently prof Ripley completely rewrote CMD check in R 1.12+)
