Hello -- I desperately want to start using Ogg compression on music I release on the internet, but I am encountering a fair amount of artifacts. I noticed some in beta4 and was hoping they would disappear with RC1. However, I've been playing with RC2 and I've still been banging my head into a number of problems. A majority of the music I make has long drones with a fair amount of spectral

Hi, there. While waiting for the encoder RC1, I will report some minor problems I experienced with Peter's Winamp decoder. First, I am using Nullsoft Vorbis Decoder v.1.11a with Winamp v.2.76 on Windows 98 SE. 1. When the buttons of Playlist Editor are extended, the part extended in playlist screen seems to be flickering when an Ogg file is being played. 2. I check the option of

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: Have been testing the latest winamp plugins on my icecast2 stream (http://bumpy.braille.uwo.ca:9000/test.ogg <plug plug>) and I noticed that in the field where the player/browser is listed in the log entries I see Mozilla for the winamp plugin. Isn't this ummmm. wrong? Geoff. --- >8 ---- List archives: http://www.xiph.org/archives/ Ogg project homepage:

Just in case my quotation causeed misunderstnaing... Forget about what I quoted before. Probably, by CBR, Monty meant ABR since CBR is stupidly patented and this is the reason why Vorbis has no CBR option. If you know this, it cannot be a problem but I see there is a question asking what is ABR in the mailing list. >On Thu 28 Jun 2001, 23:27:41 PDT, Monty (xiphmont@xiph.org)Wrote: >then

Hello, I'd like to use abcde to rip my CD:s to Ogg Vorbis format - but abcde wants a "vorbiscomment" in my PATH. I assume it's a tool for inserting meta-data into Ogg Vorbis files, but where do I get it? The vorbis-tools package doesn't seem to contain it.

After doing an informal (128k) listening test, I have concluded that I prefer Beta4 over RC2. The 16kHz low-pass on the RC2 encoder makes it sound like FM radio. Both encoders SEEM to have a couple of dB bump at 10kHz.

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

A-ha! That explains a lot. There used to be a project called FAAC but I presume it's gone. After seeing

Hi I'm still looking for a good intro splash/credit image for ogg vorbis to go into ATD's games. The little blue fish is neat but not really up to scratch or big enough. I need something that is 640 x 480 and eye catching. :] Is there an official image apart from the fish? Think 'bink' and you'll be on the right lines. I have yet to notice any publicity come from vorbis use

Hello all. Quick question ('Cause I'm famished and have to get something to eat) If I have a batch of files (wave and/or ogg) with a certain naming scheme. Would it be possible for me to write a small nifty (newbie) dos-batch program that could tag those ogg-files (or encode the waves with tags) with regards to the namin parameters. Let me clarify. I usually encode waves with the

Hello, I've got two streams, one for broadband, one for dialup. Well, having had occation to use a dialup connection recently i checked the dialup stream. Although it was streaming what the broadband stream was, the audio quality was audibly worse. It didn't buffer, but it didn't sound as clear as the broadband stream. I used lame to encode the tracks to mp3 and used it's

This mail depends upon the fact that I don't have a couple of good earphones ;-) I read in the site that q=6 is a very high quality, but does it contain perceivable differencies from the original? (for 95% of people, of course). I also found q=6 to produce files slightly bigger (1/10 bigger) than those produced with lame VBR q=2 (about 192 bps on average). I always thought LAME VBR q=2

In light of the recent study - http://www.airwindows.com/encoders/index.html - posted at slashdot, I've come to realize how little I know about this whole field. So, I'm making an appeal to the audio experts here. I want 'jukebox' quality, meaning ~0 artifacts while maintaining a good compression ratio, but not quite 'archival' (read high bitrate) as I don't mind
