similar to: WinVC v1.1 released (with OggInfo support)

European users that use a comma as a decimal point were experiencing a BSOD (blue-screen-of-death) using the new OggInfo.exe support. This was due to OggInfo.exe returning a period (.) in numbers regardless of windows regional settings. http://winvc.stationplaylist.com/WinVC.exe Cheers, Ross Levis. <p>--- >8 ---- List archives: http://www.xiph.org/archives/ Ogg project homepage:

WinVC has been renamed to WinVorbis as it is no longer just a comment editor. WinOgg is apparently taken! It now supports encoding from WAV files via OggEnc.exe. Unfortunately there is no progress indication per file. See the Options form for encoding options. I have added my own super-fast routine for reading comments & file info. It is limited to single stream ogg files only. See the

WinVC was locking up with tag data over 512 bytes. v1.03 fixes all known problems. http://winvc.stationplaylist.com/WinVC.exe <p>--- >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 'vorbis-request@xiph.org' containing only the word 'unsubscribe' in the body.

I have downloaded WinVC 1.0 onto a Windows XP machine with an AMD 450 MHz processor and 256 MB of RAM. I converted an entire CD ripped with EAC to Ogg Vorbis format with the attached DOS batch file, and the tag info looks perfect in Winamp's latest ogg vorbis plug-in. However, after opening any created Ogg file in WinVC, the track # field contains a part of an custom tag that I added through

I only have mp3s and it doesn't make sense to me to change all of them to ogg. My MDA(windows mobile phone) plays mp3s with no problem. It uses them as ringtones. Its more widely used in my circles. Why would I and everyone else want to switch to ogg? What is the benefit? Why the shun on mp3? And I can stream at 64 and 32 which is great for those streams that will get a lot of

Hi Rob The stream format has nothing to do with your audio files. I probably have 70% MP3's and 30% Ogg Vorbis files, and 1 or 2 WAV files for jingles on my hard drive. I only encode new CD's to Ogg Vorbis. But my station is streaming in AAC+ format, and I have also streamed in Ogg Vorbis format simultaneously. There is no way I would bother streaming in MP3 format. It's 15+

My wish for 1.1 is to stream my station with VBR at bitrates averaging 28-32kb/s with a minimum 32khz sample rate. Hopefully this will be achievable with the new low bitrate tuning that is planned. This could put it on a par with Real Audio at 32kb/s. Currently a quality of -1, 32khz sample rate produces an average around 34-38kb/s which is too high for modems. I could currently use a managed

Hi Ross.. I can email you the sources (complete zip is about 5Mb..with all the dependency directories etc) and all you have to hit is build after that. Would appreciate help in getting it going.

OK, I've organized this. It's not possible to average 32kb/s stereo with Vorbis using VBR. Quality -2 stereo proeduces roughly 32 to 38kb/s which is too high for many modems. I would have to use ABR, but last I tried that, it utilized too much CPU for my 950Mhz PC, and oddcast doesn't appear to support that option anymore. I've tried AACPlus 32kb/s mono and there is very

I was under the impression that "PCM equalizer" means it only equalizes the PCM codec, i.e. WAV files. Have you noticed a significant quality improvement in the EQ for compressed media: MP3, Vorbis, MPC?

Just to let everyone know I'm now broadcasting an IceCast2 Ogg Vorbis stream of my LPFM station courtesy of MediaCast1 (http://www.mediacast1.com) for 10 hours a day Monday to Friday 20:00 - 08:00 GMT. Newage, World, Folk, Easy Listening format. 40kb/s mono. Regards, Ross Levis http://soulfm.stationplaylist.com http://winvorbis.stationplaylist.com http://www.stationplaylist.com --- >8

I can understand wanting to boost the adoption of Xiph codecs, but I think restricting the directory to vorbis streams only will not help this endeavour. I can imagine it will just piss a lot of people, including myself, and give Xiph a bad name. I get very few listeners of my AAC+ stream now since this occured. The restriction is not an insentive to switch to Ogg Vorbis at all. The incentive

it was fixed a long time ago actually. The current YP is now benefitting from the changes made by me (with help from Karl), and yet despite the requests from both Karl and I recommending that these streams be allowed again, it falls on deaf ears. Ultimately it's up to Xiph to decide, although I was hoping that when the objection "it performs badly so we turned off all non-vorbis

May I suggest that the up coming RC4 or 1.0 needs some quality selection adjustments. It has been said that if you are happy now with a particular quality setting, later releases will produce the same quality but reduce the average bitrate. This is not currently the case. IMHO -q4 in CVS is producing almost perfect results and features audio frequencies up to 21khz -- almost CD quality.

Hi Dave, I installed it one month ago and was very surprised by the sound quality. The stream seemed to sound better in Quintessential than in Winamp.

If you have access to a Windows box, Winamp v5.1 can rip CD's to AAC+. I can't imagine why you would want to do that normally, but it would be useful for comparisons.
