Hi! I am very pleased with the progress that Ogg is making, expecially after I read the latest comparision tests on http://ff123.net/128test/instruct.html that put OGG on top aside with MPC. BUT the APPLAUD.WAV test case ( http://lame.sourceforge.net/download/samples/applaud.wav ) still produces **VERY** easily audible high-frequency artifacts when encoded with OGG RC3 up to q4.9 (!!!). Things

I would very much like a lowpass option because for FM radio broadcasting I don't want to encode frequencies above 15khz. I'm waiting for this option before switching to ogg from mp3(lame).

Hi, oggenc only seems to encode in "128 kbps" nominal bitrate mode, no matter what I give using the -b option. Latest CVS.

Hello all, I'm glad to announce to you that Vorbis now has full ReplayGain support. If you're not familiar with ReplayGain, take a look at www.replaygain.org. The main features are: a) all songs play back with equal loudness b) removes the need for normalization c) allows for clipping prevention Using it is very simple. Get a compatible decoder (ogg123, XMMS and WinAmp all support it

And thats only a player. What about an (Open Source) encoder? Nah, I'll stick with OGG for the time being.

I am using OggEnc v0.8 (libvorbis rc2) (win32 cli) I have access to two machines Pentium 3 450mhz, 192mb, Windows 2000 (SP2) Athlon 1400mhz, 256mb, Windows 2000 (SP2) When I encode the same wave file on each machine at the same nominal bitrate (96kbps), I get output files with different average bitrates. 107kbps on the Athlon, as opposed to 84kbps on the Pentium 3. Anyone

Hi all, I started testing the RC1 encoder at ftp://sjeng.sourceforge.net/pub/sjeng/oggdrop.exe (based on branch_monty_20010708) On the songs I have tested so far (not much :) I did not hear any stereo issues, but there are some very noticeable problems with the produced files. Songs without much high-end will suddenly have one when encoded. (you'd expect it the other way around) It

In case you missed it, RC2 is on slashdot.org too: http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=01/08/13/1811241 BTW Gian-Carlo Pascutto wrote on /. that RC3 should appear very soon (in a week or so)? Also, it looks like Wall Street Journal article is not available on-line (at least to non-registered persons). If someone is registered or have a paper edition, please post this article somewhere so that we

As far as I can see, transcoding could be usefull for people who do not primarly care about quality but about filesizes. One could assume that such a user would have a collection of mp3's at 128kbps or higher bitrates, and uses an encoder like BladeEnc or Xing. He wants to take uses of ogg's supposed quality and transcode his 128-or-higher files into 96 or 112kbps oggs to save diskspace.

Hi all, I have implemented ReplayGain support for Vorbis. If you are not familiar with it, it is basically a method of making sure all your files have equal loudness, remove the need for normalization and prevent clipping during playback. The process is totally lossless, and supporting it requires minimal work. More info about the exact workings can be found on www.replaygain.org (recommended

I am streaming ogg via inetd. Basically, I am outputing like: oggenc -Q -b 1 -o - /some/wave/file.wav This works fine with ogg123 (other than that I want the bit rate to be lower than 55-100 range that it is doing). I am using: Ogg123 from vorbis-tools 1.0rc2 OggEnc v0.8 (libvorbis rc2) But, FreeAmp for Windows slowly buffered up to 100% then said "Skipped Corrupted File". And

Hi. I guess the world is full of these, one more won't hurt: "The ogg-cdparanoia script is a wrapper of the programs cdparanoia (http://www.xiph.org/paranoia/), sox (http://sox.sourceforge.net/) and oggenc (http://www.vorbis.com/). The process is simple: for each track, cdparanoia is called to extract the audio to a temporary wav file. Sox is used on it to see if it is normalized.

>>I realize that I may have unintentionally been misleading you by leaving some information out. That error report from ogginfo keeps going, repeating the same 3 errors (as above) over and over again. It ends after a stream_truncated=true, not giving a final header_integrity=fail.

Hi! I would like to share with you an interesting test result. I re-encoded a song 10 times (the 2. made from the 1., the 3. made from the 2.,... the 10. made from the 9.), with a beta4 (CVS 20010620) and with an RC2 (CVS 20010817) library version, 256 kbit/s mode, channel coupling disabled at RC2. The beta4 is very good at the 10. encoding too, but the RC2 has some interesting quality bugs. So,

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.

Hello everyone, I'm a student at the Universtiy of Delaware, and will be soon starting some research on the effects of lossy audio compression on speech sounds. I will be preforming test with both mp3 and vorbis. First of all, if I use the '--ogg' switch to lame, does lame use GPSYCHO to encode the wave, or some other psychoacoustic model (perhaps one designed for

I really don't know if this is the same problem that was reported by Ingo Saitz (I really couldn't say which one was 128kbit and which was the original wav when blind-testing. The original had some distortion that perhaps does somehting with my cheapo soundcard) but here's a description of what i've found: When doing some sample encoding with rc2 (rebuilt rpm with latest redhat
