similar to: Different average bitrates on different machines

I'm sorry if this question has been asked before; I've looked through the archives and haven't seen anything. The problem I'm seeing is that oggenc's VBR encoding doesn't seem to pay attention to any sort of bitrate limitation, either the -m or bitrate_hard_min settings. It isn't that it temporarily dips below the minimum; the average for the whole (in this case,

dear vorbis developers, it would be very useful, if oggenc would support constant low-bandwith bitrates for testing. something from 20kbps to 44kbps, so anyone could test streaming over modem and isdn. audio quality doesn't matter. mörk --- >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

Hi there, I'm using libvorbis in my program and need to encode to target bitrate. I know libvorbis prefer to use quality scale but I can't use it. I've found something at faq http://vorbis.com/faq/#quality *For now, quality 0 is roughly equivalent to 64kbps average, 5 is roughly 160kbps, and 10 gives about 400kbps. Most people seeking very-near-CD-quality audio encode at a quality

Hi, <p>apparently, I didn't delete my test samples ... I found them. :) Here's a small table of what nominal bitrate fits to which quality at what sample rate. Quality levels inbetween -1 and 0 are possible, but I didn't test them. Nominal bitrates of those quality settings will be somewhere between those of -1 and 0 and therefore can be guessed. q/channels || -1/mono |

Hi, I'm experimenting with IceCast2, using DarkIce to generate the stream. I have found some peculiarities with the vorbis bitrates. In DarkIce, I call vorbis_encode_init() with about the following values: vorbis_encode_init( &vorbisInfo, 2, 44100, 96, 96, 96); which by all reasons should generate a 96 kb/s stream, as all max_bitrate, nominal_bitrate and min_bitrate are set to 96.

I've been having problems with Audiograbber, it got the track breaks all wrong on a couple of CDs. I think it re-used the track breaks from the first CD when reading subsequent CDs. Does anyone have any recommendations for a good CD ripper? I've also tried Exact Audio Copy, but didn't get on with it very well. Phil Hibbs Cap Gemini Ernst & Young Aston, UK

I've just done some rudimentary testing to see how Vorbis degrades at absurdly low bitrates without downsampling. In summary, don't hope for anything decent below -q 0 for now. I tried oggenc -b <bitrate> -M <bitrate> for the below and a few in between: 24k - spectral energy "floor" captured decently, but many pure-tone blips (think old computer movie sound effects)

Important (imho)! I found this site in the internet: http://www.plusv.org/ PlusV is an audio enhancement algorithm similar to SRB of Mp3Pro, but 1) better than SBR 2) Fully open-source It seems to me wise to include PlusV into new versions of Ogg Vorbis. P.S. what about some long-awaited features in Ogg Vorbis? 1) ability to turn off the frequency filter in the encoder (especially for high

Hello- I recently downloaded Verbs and started playing with the encoder. The quality was great when I encoded a few samples at medium and high bitrates, but when trying to encode the same clips at 16 kbps, artifacts are audible during playback- short bursts of screeching noise, not just distortion. I'm using oggenc 1.0 beta 4 to encode, sonique to play back on Windows NT. I've also

You know, we really need a streaming FAQ. There seem to be LOTS of undocumented command-line switches for oggenc that help in limiting bitrates that folks don't know about. The recent thread with Derek at CD Baby brought out a lot of good info that I didn't know, and I consider myself fairly plugged-in. It would be helpful to have something like: Q: How do I limit the bitrate to

Hello all, I wanted to ask some experienced users some settings about oggenc. 1. How can I setup oggenc so that I can DIRECTLY rip tracks off my audio cd? As we all know, audio cd doens't really have a file format that we can directly use. Do I HAVE to convert them to wav files then convert them to ogg files? 2. The options: -b -m -M with the bitrate of the audio file. If I set something

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

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

When I encode a monophonic wav file, I would expect the resulting ogg file to be at about half the bit rate specified on the command line, as stated in the "oggenc -h" help text: "The 6 modes are approximately 112, 128, 160, 192, 256, and 350 kbps (for stereo 44.1kHz input. Halve these numbers for mono input).". This doesn't seem to be happening, though. I took a 16-bit,

hello, i have a question about the documentation: oggenc --help says: -b, --bitrate Choose a nominal bitrate to encode at. Attempt to encode at a bitrate averaging this. Takes an argument in kbps. This uses the bitrate management engine, and is not recommended for most users. See -q, --quality for a

Hi all! I ran across another song that oggenc seems to have trouble to encode. The intro of U2:s "Grace" gets its right channel messed up by oggenc, even at the highest bitrate. Why is the bitrate only 218? Isn't that awfully little when asking for 320? Qualityflaws like these is the reason i prefer mp3 and mpplus today. But vorbis is getting better for every beta, so keep up the
