Ogg Vorbis is mentioned in CNET's MP3 Insider newsletter. I'm sending this article and another one that takes more thorough look at internet music distribution (from the same newsletter). -------------------------------------------------------------------- MP3: IT'S NOT REALLY FREE There is a widespread illusion that the MP3 file format is not a proprietary codec. It'd be nice,

This press release went out on a limited basis, but no one seemed to notice the good parts. Read about the contest, and start looking for bugs :) ---- Xiph.org Foundation Announces Ogg Vorbis Release Candidate 2 Featuring Bug-Hunting Contest on the Path to 1.0 The Xiph.org Foundation is proud to announce the latest release candidate of the Ogg Vorbis open source audio codec.

Well, I only recently subscribed to this mailing list and do not know all the history of this extension debate (I passed up on reading the hundreds of messages that seem to have been written about this topic). I just wanted to make one quick point: from my experience, the average user does not know about file formats, only about content (my experience stems from working for ashampoo

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

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

Hello, there is a small typo in the vorbis-tools.spec file which prevents the successfull build of rpms: # rpm -ta vorbis-tools-1.0beta4.tar.gz %changelog not in decending chronological order The necessary change is: %changelog -* Mon Jan 22 2000 Jack Moffitt <jack@icecast.org> +* Mon Jan 22 2001 Jack Moffitt <jack@icecast.org> - updated for prebeta4 builds * Sun Oct 29 2000

We were able to do this (all the music was preencoded) with 8 machines quite reliably. Basically 4 machines sourced streams, and 4 machines served them. Only three machines were really needed, so failures were taken care of if only one machine

Ogg Vorbis is still not known by the mainstream and not widely used these days. I've been thinking about this...

Me again, this time not about patents but about wavelets. I've been doing some work on an image compression method which uses Haar wavelets plus VQ and entropy coding, and Segher Boessenkool told me in a private message that you are also doing a video codec. So I searched the archives and read a bunch of posts, but I never did find out any web address. And it's not on xiph.org either. So

This is a proposal for Ogg MIDI streams. It will also help other stream additions to Vorbis, as they should follow a similar model. Ralph has done much of the work on this, and also is working on MNG Ogg streams. Background ---------- I was contracted to do this work, so even if you can't think of a use for this, there is one ;) Basically with midi in Ogg, we can have a synchronized

Hi. For anyone who doesn't know me, I'm a Macintosh developer. Right now, I'm at the MacHack conference (which runs from Wednesday to Sunday). Before I left, I grabbed the Vorbis sources out of CVS.
