This week's Ogg Traffic has been posted at: http://www.vorbis.com/ot/20020709.html I'm also open to suggestions (via private email) as to what other things people would like to see in Ogg Traffic.

Hello. First of all, thanx for that great codec. I would encode all my music with Ogg Vorbis in the future, if it hadn't been for some samples I encoded for test purposes: Everything was great as long a I used "natural" sounds/music, but certain pieces of synthesized music (specially techno) contained very audible artifacts even at high bitrates. So I just went on using mp3 for

In all the abx'ing and ear testing I've done in the past for my classical and jazz music I have never seen or heard bladeenc output worse than xing. (worse than lame, yes) Now, to sorta keep this ON topic. I have never heard a an xing, blade OR lame encoded mp3 sound better than a Garf tuned RC2 encode of my Jazz and Classical stuff, (not a large sample set). Also, I haven't used

By the way, I was delighted to find out that I could join .ogg files with cat, i.e. cat {file1.ogg} file2.ogg > outputfile.ogg <p>I successfully used this capability, together with oggenc and sox, to join two .WAV files in the following manner: <p>oggenc -q9 file1.wav ... oggenc -q9 file2.wav --- cat file1.ogg file2.ogg > outfile.ogg ox outfile.ogg outfile.wav I get

Hi, there is an interesting case when the FLAC encoder (using 1.2.0) is given simple waves. Simple waves means: I have a list of {frequency, duration, pause} tuples that define the monophonic tune. In other words, exactly one frequency is played at a time. This is the original dataset from 1989 (driving a PC speaker back then): $ ls -l ihold.sd -rw-r--r-- 1 jengelh users 20616 Aug 14 00:57

I'm trying to get OpenSSH 2.5.2p2 to run on HP-UX 9.05. I've had some decent results, but I'm also seeing some problems. I'm using the EGD (I configured with --with-prngd-socket=/tmp/entropy). * Compiling required some changes, which I've attached. Two of the changes are "hackish", and not at all suited to inclusion in the source tree, but they might point

* Use `mktemp` instead of playing with date(1). * Use -f instead of removing the file every time. * "echo ERROR; exit 1" is what die() is for. * Some cosmetic renamings ('k' to 'comp' for compression etc). * Remove the MacOSX comment. It's not MacOSX specific, and it's not a problem anyway. The number behaves just right. * Remove the $((${size}+10)). It's

Hello R community, Does anyone know of a package that will perform cycle regression analysis? I have searched the R-help archives etc. but have come up with nothing so far. If I am unable to find an existing R package to do so, is there anyone familiar with fitting sine functions to data. My problem is this: I have a long time-series of daily SWE estimates (SWE = snow water equivalence, or

Greetings, I have several sets of oscillation data and would like to estimate the parameters of a sine function to each set (and hopefully automate this). A colleague provided an excel sheet that uses solver to minimize the RSS after fitting the sine function to each data set, but this cumbersome and difficult to automate. Is there a method in R for fitting a given sine function to a

Hello, I am author of a Morse code training software written in Perl at http://starling.ws/morse Currently I output to *.wav and, if on Unix, convert to *.ogg. And that's okay for a trainer. But I have desire to upgrade the project to a real-time communication tool...or at least a Morse code audio mail routine. And I should like to avoid *.wav. I'd like some means of writing a pure

Hi everyone, I am trying to fit a sine function on one year of wind data. I have two questions below. Looking around on the net I managed to get the following: Sine Equation: y = a + b * sin( c + d*x ) b is the amplitude, c is the phase shift, d is something deal with periodicty of data*.* This can be linearised by sin( c+dx ) = cos(c) * sin(dx) + sin(c) * cos(dx). If one calls dx = x1 y

Hello all, I am trying out the echo cancellation of Speex (1.2beta2) on Windows XP. I use the Windows Media API (i.e. waveInOpen, waveOutOpen etc) for playback and capture, but I cannot make echo cancellation works in my use case. Here is a description of what I tried: (the sound is in 8kHz and 16 bits per sample, the frame size is 240, tail_length is long enough to cover the far end to near end

Hi, I wanted to play around with the echo canceller so I tried the testecho program. As speaker sound I fed it with a 440 Hz sine wave, and as mic with a 550 Hz + 440 Hz sine waves sound (but the 440 Hz component half the amplitude). I kind of expected to get a somewhat clean 550 Hz sine out, but it doesn't seem to work that way. Are there better samples I can use with testecho to see
