similar to: Are AMDs preferable? [was: Choosing a processor]

Hi everyone, Thank you for all your input; may I pose you one last question? If I wish to _ensure_ that I can _always_ do real-time encoding, what is the cheapest AMD chip I should buy? I really don't need "better than real-time" encoding, but I do wish to be sure that the CD is ripped when I am finished listening to it, so that I can carelessly eject it without checking if the

Hello! I am about to buy a new computer, and because encoding/decoding .ogg files is the most processor intensive thing I intend to regularly do, I would like to know which is the "recommended" processor for real-time encoding (I record my favourite radio shows). TIA! Bye, Joane Lispton PS: I receive the FM radio stations through my cable (the one which brings me cable TV),

I've just installed RC2 and I'm very excited about the quality. It's so much better than MP3. This is the first version I've used since I just found out about Ogg Vorbis. I did notice that very high frequencies seem to be missing but since not many people can hear much above 18 KHz it's not much of an issue. I suppose this resolves the hiss problem so prevalent in MP3.

Hi Joane, I think AMDs are 'preferable' of cost/'performance unit'. For standard applications you will have to compare a Duron-900 to a P-III-933; and AMDs will perform much better when it comes to number crunching. And now -- have a look at the prices...! I wouldn't buy any Intel chip today... this may be a 'European' habit, but I think it isn't / shouldn't

The software page's only currently maintained Ogg Vorbis player for Mac-people is the iTunes plugin that seems to be for OS X only. Is there no player for Mac OS 8 or 9? <p>--- >8 ---- List archives: http://www.xiph.org/archives/ Ogg project homepage: http://www.xiph.org/ogg/ To unsubscribe from this list, send a message to 'vorbis-request@xiph.org' containing only the word

Hi, with the Lame MP3 encoder I reduce the amplitude of the input signal prior to encoding with the --scale option to prevent clipping that can be introduced due to resampling errors.

does anyone on this list have any idea of what an HDCD is? i have a cd and that logo is on the back, and windows media player 7 recognizes it as an hdcd and displays the logo, but i dont know if that means it is supposed to sound better or what. it sounds fine......feel free to email back to me and not to the list as this is off topic...........uhh..........i am ripping it to ogg vorbis! =P

('binary' encoding is not supported, stored as-is) Hello, there was a discussion about defining a TRACKTOTAL tag which ended in the conclusion that this is actually metadata about an album and we need a metadata program (like iTunes) to manage it. Well iTunes is about to be released for Windows. For everyone who likes free software or is using Linux: there's a program called prokyon3

I absolutly love the program, have been waiting for it for a long time. But, the Ogg Vorbis support is not good.

hello :-) i would like to publish a recorded interview on my website using the ogg vorbis format; i would like to know if it's possible to sort of embed a multi-platform vorbis player into a webpage, so that visitors can click on 'play' and hear the recording; like for instance you can with the macromedia flash player; /bruno __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

I have yet to speak to a single Mac user who has successfully received a live or archived Ogg stream. I'm been told neither MacAmp nor Quicktime will accept streams, they only play files. Are there any Mac users on this list who can recommend a player (from personal experience) which actually plays Ogg streams? db http://www.subgenius.com/ts/hos.html --- >8 ---- List archives:

Hi, if it comes to mp3... my 'old' Duron-700 delivers a rip-and-encode performance six (6!) times faster then 'single speed' (bladeEnc 0.94.2). So take the cheapest Duron box available, and you will be happy, for real small money.

First of all, I'm using WinXP and love vorbis! :-) Since I just joined the mailing list, I figured I would answer the Winamp question. Winamp has different EQ algorithms - they have a "fast layer 2/3 EQ" option for mp3s, and they have a PCM EQ for all other formats (wma, ogg, etc.). While the mp3 EQ sounds ok, the PCM EQ (which gets applied to ogg files) is absolutely horrible. I

I was doing a search for Mac OS cd audio extraction with error-correction, and stumbled upon an awe-inspiring collection of misinformation from last year: http://www.macslash.org/AskMacSlash/02/09/14/0257246.shtml My favorite bit is the part about Audio CDs being composed of AIFF files that can be easily copied bit-for-bit perfect with no error-correction algorithm. -- agreenbu @ nyx . net

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

Hello, I read an interesting article on 2cpu.com that talks about the performance differences between a P4 processor with Hyperthreading(HT) enabled and disabled. http://www.2cpu.com/articles/ht_explored/index.html The bottom line of the article is that processor intensive applications greatly benefit from HT being enabled, but memory intensive applications can actually see a slight decrease in
