Hi! Today, I found an encoding bug with a new tune by me. http://www.uni-karlsruhe.de/~us87/ogg/vorbis_bassrumble_demo.rar (2.1MB) contains the original .WAV in 16bit/44.1kHz and an .OGG encoded at 350kbit/s. I found the bug when listening to the 128kbit/s version, but encoding it with that high bitrate didn't change a thing. The deep bassdrum contains a rumbling, knocking sound (the first

Monty, could you please modify the archiving mechanism so that the current month messages are archived from the begining into the month-number directory where they will be afterwards? The current scheme makes people link to this month's articles with a URL that breaks afterwards. At least please provide a symbolic link or something from the directory that will later become correct (e.g.

Sorry for posting somewhat off-topic... Most my music files have names in hebrew (FAT32 partition). I dual-boot between a hebrew win98 (where these files are opened nicely by winamp, freeamp and any other program) and a hebrew win2000, where windows media player is the only program I've seen so far to open them. All others say "can't open file ???? ?? ???.ogg" (or .mp3) - both

Hi. Here are my patches and makefiles for compiling ogg, vorbis and vorbis-tools on DOS with DJGPP. They can build them from cvs snapshots and need minimal maintainance (even extract source lists from `makefile.am's). Everything seems to work, except one FP exception on encode at middle bitrates (lowest two and highest bitrates don't cause it) - I don't think it's my

I happily downloaded the official beta4 winamp plugin as well as Mattew's versions with VCE interated and with/without the dialog. When I installed it winamp (v2.72) didn't recognize it (no vorbis plugin listed in the config, doesn't play ogg files) - same for all of them. I recompiled it myself from Mattew's source with vce - same results. It does recognize the old plugin when

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

Hi all, Have trouble encoding / playing back OGG using WinAmp + plugin. I encoded the files from .WAV with Ogg drop RC2. Seems to be ok. When I try and play them back though I get very very weird sound effects (some kind of "wobbling", some bass frequencies that are usually in the background seem to get more emphasised and they seem to have some kind of strange echo / reverb to it

Hi! The page http://www.xiph.org/archives/vorbis/masterindex.html links to http://www.xiph.org/archives/vorbis/date.html , whic gives a 404 error ( not found ).

Not vorbis-related, just I think I found a similar technique being used... The description of the MPEG-2/SVCD plugin on the nero site says that it can encode exacty to the size of the CD (to maximize quality given a size restriction). It also says (in a separate point) that it uses two-pass VBR compression. >From that I guess they do something like encoding a bigger-than needed file and then

Just found this one: http://camelot.kingarthur.com/phoco/ogg_vorbis/info.html It seems to have music dedicated to vorbis (by the names, don't have player here) and a link to an interview with Monty ("more information on the Ogg Vorbis format") and the artists seem very excited about it. The browser says the pages are quite old (Jul./Sep. 2001) but I don't remember it being

In advanced tag editting mode, the list of tags doesn't display unicode content of tags properly. A side suggestion: forcing english keyboard in tag name edit field would be helpful (when I edit many tags all in my language, currently I have to witch to english and back all the time). -- Beni Cherniavsky <cben@tx.technion.ac.il> (also scben@t2 in Technion) Common

Hi: I just wanted to know where exactly the problem with re-encoding in RC2 was. Was it in vorbis' ability to cope well with its own output as input, or did the first encode produce output that didn't lend itself to re-encoding? The difference is important. If it's the latter, anyone wanting to re-encode material will have to first encode it with RC3. I guess what I'm asking

Hello there folks, i was having a look through bits of the code to see if there was anything to do with pitch control, or perhaps i should call it speed control. For instance, say you took a track off a DVD which is 48khz, forgot to run it through sox to downsample it to 44khz, yet encoded it anyway. It will sound slower (therefore, the pitch has dropped). Whilst dj-ing (though i am no

Well, my last question about this was in the middle of other stuff, but it's a basic one: why put tag info in the comment field at all? Why not use the XML field that's already there? It gives the flexibility needed to do things like translated tags easily, and keeps tag info in the same format as other data--potentially simplifying editors which read other types of metadata. The only

Sorry if this is offtopic. My Win32 comment editor uses a routine of my own to read comments directly from OGG files but uses vorbiscomment.exe to write comments. I've implemented a UTF-8 function which I found on the internet to decode UTF-8. It appears to be working fine for most European characters, however, I have a Russian user using WinXP who is entering Hebrew characters such as

After reading http://mp3.radified.com/mp3.htm I sent Rad an explanation of some things as I understand them. He liked it and posted it on his site (still unlinked, use the URL below). Can somebody with better understanding of psycho-acoustic terms and the vorbis model check it and comment on it? In particular I didn't know how vorbis handles quantization noise. If you reply with
