similar to: ogg/vorbis on OS/2 and console apps

I was wondering how vorbis fares as a speech codec? I mean can it give similar or better quality as GSM/Toast at the same kind of bitrates/filesize? I'm not worried about streaming but I'd love to be able to create really small voice files. Can anyone give me an idea of filesize for recording time for pure speech based use? love Freya __________________________________________________

I thought this might be interesting to you, it's an extract from the latest streaming media newsletter, I was intrested to note that MS are claiming cd quality audio at 48kbps whichi is obviously very low, I didn't think much of it at first because nobody uses MS codecs for audio anyway! However (a bit I missed off this quote by the look of it) I then read mention of portable audio players

Hi folks, The folks on RedHat who have been complaining of poor-quality encodes prompted us to track down the trouble, and it's a compiler bug. We have the asm .s files to prove it :-) The summary: EGCS (gcc) versions through March 1999, including up to at least gcc/egcs 2.91.66 have a serious floating point optimization bug that hits Vorbis. This is a fairly old gcc version, but RedHat

Hi R experts :) I'm trying to carry out a survival model on my data, but I am unsure of whether it's appropriate or if I should do something specific in regards to hazard. My data is time to death by predator where I have 8 prey and one predator in the setting. This means that two prey can't possibly die at the same time and I can't quite get my head around how to include this in

I suppose it could be possible to patent something and let the patent expire so that it is registered at the patent office but not enforcable. No one else could patent it then. I get curious about the RLE patent. I heard Someone has a patent on run length encoding and I wonder how long they have had it because I remember RLE code running on a sinclair spectrum in the 80's before the whole

The attached set of patches adds support for OS/2 using Watcom compiler (tested with Open Watcom 1.9). My only interest was building a working dll (the last patch in the set adds a makefile for it), therefore I did not touch other places: If there is interest, I can do so.

Hi, Could somebody points me to some .ogg test files in mono or with more than 2 channels? I am also looking for info on how channels are positionned so than I can remap them for 2 channels only environments.

Here in the uk, to get a patent on anything, you have to prove that the patent is not obvious and that there is no prior art. If there is prior art, then a patent cannot be given, this is why people patenting stuff have to keep it a secret until they actually have the patent, otherwise it is considered to have been released into the public domain. Once something is in the public domain, nobody

Hello, as usual for me with precompiled libraries, the ones of the vorbis- sdk didn't work for me in WATCOM/Win32, so i compiled them on my own (vorbis_static.lib / vorbisfile_static.lib - it was possible after some slight changes like slightly modifiyng the typedef types that Watcom didn't know) The libraries work fine so far (like getting the file info), but when calling ov_read

Hello! I'm kind of new to Linux so I'm in learning process. The thing keeping me tied to Windows is that I can't play the same games on Linux so I have been dual-booting it on my laptop. Recently I found out about Wine and decided to try it out. I decided to install Lineage 2 using Wine. Before doing anything wanted to make sure that I know exactly what to do and how so I searched

A colleague is using Watcom F77 version 11 in Windows NT, and wants to create DLLs callable from R. (He was previously able to do external calls from S-PLUS). Does anyone know what magic is necessary so that it uses the right calling convention? In a debugger, it appears it's using a register-based calling convention, no matter what we ask for, but we're probably asking in the wrong

I spotted recently that since we switched to git, commit notifications haven't been sent to the xapian-commits list. We can probably install a hook for git to get them flowing again, but given that none of the ~20 subscribers to the list has complained, I'm wondering if a list for commits is still useful. Perhaps with a decentralised version control system it isn't, though the

Hello all, I want to define a vector like w[k+1]=w[k]*a/(b+k) for k=1,...,N-1 without use loop. Is it posible to do in R? Regards khazaei

Hello. I am trying to use a FORTRAN subroutine from within R (Windows version). This fortran subroutine is compiled using the Open Watcom Fortran compiler and the compiled object file is called ritscale.obj. Following the explanation on pages 193-194 of "The New S language" I use the dyn.load command: > dyn.load("f:/maxent/ritscale.obj") Error in dyn.load(x,

It's AALLL true... I have buyed a LOT of legal CDs based on the listening of 'pirated' copies downloaded on compressed format. companies should be glad. I agree with Freya (quoted below) very strongly. Not to restate what's already been said, but record companies claim "we lose $XX million in sales each year because of people pirating our music using mp3s". In reality,
