similar to: Problems Building Ogg Vorbis RC3

Hi All, For my new file (and thus mp3) server I've decided to switch completely to Ogg Vorbis. This means having to reencode ~30GB worth of 128Kb MP3's, but i figured that it would all be worth the effort. So I downloaded the sources for libogg, libvorbis and vorbis-tools and fired up my trusty old compiler. libogg and libvorbis built and installed like a charm. Not so for

When I run ogginfo on a .ogg file I created with oggenc (RC3), it lists some things that I have questions about: 1. Ogginfo lists bitrate_average and bitrate_nominal. Now, bitrate_average (I assume) would mean the overall bitrate average for the entire file but what does bitrate_nominal mean? 2. How is the serial number created? Can I tell something specific about an .ogg file by looking at it?

I submitted four new packages for the NetBSD pkgsrc collection: libao, libogg, libvorbis and vorbis-tools for 1.0beta4. The following is some of the patches needed for libao and vorbis-tools. Official Developers: When you receive patches or development suggestions can you please acknowledge them? (For example: "Noted.", "Thanks, but already done.", "Not necessary,

Hello, I am trying build vorbis-tools-1.1.1 in the framework of my tool (see signature). The essence of the tools is that it builds and install everything locally, and, of course, it uses the available mechanisms to specify search paths for both headers and libraries; the tool first builds dependencies abd then the target itself. So, for example, 'configure' for vorbis-tools-1.1.1 is

Hi Jeremy, I went through the list archives, and have been trying to follow and implement things as I understand: 1. libao needs <sys/soundcard.h> and <machine/soundcard.h>, and so I linked /usr/include/soundcard.h there. 2. Since `soundcard.h' doesn't have SNDCTL_DSP_GETODELAY, I uncommented that particular line in `src/plugins/oss/ao_oss.c'. These steps made sure

Hi, I have downloaded the following files libao-0.6.0.tar.gz libogg-1.0beta4.tar.gz libvorbis-1.0beta4.tar.gz vorbis-tools-1.0beta4.tar.gz as said from the download section. But I'm at a loss to what do after that. I don't have much experience/knowledge in compiling etc, but I still want to try out ogg. (I downloaded the source coz I have an OpenBSD machine, and there was no

Hi folks, I'd like to remind people with write access on the CVS mainline not to put any tools/libs/patches into the main build that are not portable... I'm getting not-very-pretty flames from NetBSD folks because libao fails to *configure* under NetBSD (let alone build), thus breaking building the build for the entire CVS mainline. Specifically: >checking size of int...

attached please find patches to make vorbis kit (2000/8/18 daily tar.gz) to compile on netbsd. we need more tests and cleanups (like moving -lossaudio into AC_CHECK_LIB() in configure.in), but it should be good as starting point. thanks. itojun PS: i'm not on the list. if possible please cc: to me. $NetBSD: patch-aa,v 1.1.1.1 2000/08/17 16:56:18 itojun Exp $ ---

[Sorry if this is a duplicate post. My original didn't appear to have gotten through.] I had previously installed libao, libogg, libvorbis, and vorbis-tools, as linked from the RC3 download page at vorbis.com -- I downloaded and installed the latest versions of these four libraries from the vorbis.com download page, at which point my pyogg/pyvorbis Python bindings broke. I reinstalled the

I am using NetBSD 1.5.1_ALPHA (i386). I have libao-0.6.0, libvorbis-1.0beta4, libogg-1.0beta4 and vorbis-tools-1.0beta4. My sound works. I am able to use a .ogg file by using ogg123 to create a .wav file and playing it with splay. (splay uses /dev/audio.) How can I modify ogg123 (or liba0) so I can use /dev/audio as the default sound device? Or maybe it would be better to add a new device (for

hi, i am trying to load vorbis tool on to my arm board EDB9302 , till now i have cross compiled libao, libogg, libvorbis, flac, speex and vorbis tool. when i run the command line arm-linux-ogg123 with some sample ogg format file on my arm board it gave *"Could not load default driver and no driver specified in config file : Exiting"* , please help me to over come this error.

I compiled and installed pyogg followed by pyvorbis, running: $ ./config_unix.py $ python setup.py build and as root: # python setup.py install for pyogg and pyvorbis in turn. This completed without error, however upon trying to import ogg.vorbis in IDLE I get an import error: ImportError: libvorbisfile.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory I was told this may have

I hope I'm not being an idiot, but I'm attempting to install vorbis-1.0 RPMs on a few redhat machines and failing horribly. I'm in dependency hell. For starters, libao-0.8.3-1 requires libasound.so.2 (an alsa library?) which does not seem to be available in any recent redhat releases. Then vorbis-tools wants libcurl.so.2, which makes redhat 7.2 machines choke. Worst of all is

Hello, I successfully compiled and installed; libao-0.6.0-1 libao-devel-0.6.0-1 libogg-1.0beta4-1 libogg-devel-1.0beta4-1 libvorbis-1.0beta4-1 libvorbis-devel-1.0beta4-1 as RPM's using the spec files included in the sources. (the RPM's available for download are for RPM 4 users, I guess?) Anyway, now I'm trying to compile vorbis-tools using the spec file included and I got the

Form the vorbis.com homepage: "Ogg Vorbis does not compromise quality for freedom. Its stunning quality is coupled with aggressive features like fast bitrate scaling, surround channels, and fast sample-granularity seek and decode." This makes me wonder... -- What is "fast bitrate scaling"? -- I've never seen anything in the source supporting surround channels. -- I

Hi! On March 17th I posted a message on this list concerning an artifact bug in beta4 that is audible in all available bitrates. It was this rumbling sound in the bass area. I made a demo clip, which still is available at http://www.stud.uni-karlsruhe.de/~us87/ogg/vorbis_bassrumble_demo.rar and that contains both the original .WAV and an .OGG @ 350kbps. This archive is 2.1 MB large. Today, I

This patch fixes three problems with the current configure script: 1. Manual exclusion of drivers: Now you will be able to force drivers NOT to be compiled, even if they are detected. This was specifically requested with so that ALSA could be disabled. 2. Selecting the default device: Now you can override the default driver chosen by the script with your own preference. Again, this enhancement
