Actually, he didn't. He sent a multipart message, with a "text/html" section
and an equivalent message in "text/plain". Other than a little extra
bandwidth, I don't think anyone minds multipart messages.

rc3 and lowpass filters
Hello,
I was wondering about the lowpass filter applied at the different
quality levels. It seems that the 16kHz cut-off is still there at
quality 3. I didn't really abx it, so maybe my mind plays tricks on
me. :)
Please can someone enlighten me what is used for -q0, -q1 and so on.
(lame tells me whats used when encoding tracks)
I know I shouldn't judge by bandwidth but I would like to

frequency cutoff?
Back in the day, when I was still using LAME, I was aware of the fact that
the program would cut off frequencies above a certain level (lowpass). With
192 kbps this was usually around 20Khz (which is the highest frequency a human
can hear, as far as I know), and at 128 something like 16Khz.
Does Vorbis do something similar? If so, does someone have a chart of the
cutoffs at the different quality

EAC: Ogg-on-the-fly?
I was wondering, is there a way to encode Oggs with EAC on-the-fly? I'm
looking for a way to shorten the whole ripping and encoding process, but so far
I've only seen support for the commandline encoder.

FAQ submission: quality vs. bitrate
I would like to see the following information added to the FAQ at
vorbis.com, appended to the "Audio Quality" section. "Uiver," "boa,"
and "jonI" from OPN's #Vorbis channel contributed and reviewed it.
"What does the 'quality' setting mean?"
Beginning with vorbislib 1.0-rc3, audio quality is no longer measured

OGG lossless?
Hello,
I noticed that kbps jumps quite high in -q 10 mode and is nearing lossless
compressors.
Would it be a difficult task to make OGG a lossless compressor at -q 10?
I don't know much about lossy/lossless compression internal logic, so excuse
me if my question is out of place. But this would be a really nice feature
that would make OGG an "all in one" tool.
Cheers,

applaud.wav sounds worse in 1.0?
I've been running through a collection of hard to encode samples that the
lame developers use, and others, doing ABX testing at various quality levels
looking for my personal sweet spot. Last time I did this for RC3 I found that
most samples where pretty transparent around the 3.5-4 region (my ears aren't
that well trained, and I don't want them to be :-), but this time I noticed

HipZip support?
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
Hello vorbis,
I know that hipzip/Dadio support was planned - does anyone have any
idea what the status of this is due to iomega's discontinuing of the
Hipzip product line?
Is there any way we can add ogg support to our hipzip's in the
future if Interactive Objects adds it to Dadio ?

embedded vorbis players
Anyone know of any vorbis players more or less the size of an MP3 player -
something that will fit in a pocket? Or some projects to make one?
I'd be willing to work on putting one together and port vorbis to some
embedded processor. Any rough idea of what processor capabilities should
be needed for the number crunching (is an FPU necessary, 16/32 bit,
speed)? I realize the dev list might be a

Is there an oggenc low bit rate HOWTO?
First let me say that I was absolutely astounded at the sound quality
when using oggenc at q = -1 (around 50 kbps). So much so, that I'm
anxious to try some of the lower bit rates that were mentioned in the
announcement for 1.0:
... audio and music at fixed and variable bitrates from 16 to 128
kbps/channel.
But I am having trouble finding how to use either oggdrop or oggenc to
get these

cdparanoia mailing list ?
Hi all !
I use cdparanaia for which I would like to get information.
Does anyone know if there is a mailing list concerning this ripping

In fact, I would like to know if cdparanoia can support scsi drive .... if
someone can help me on this matter ... it is welcome. ;-)

Vorbis for low bitrate speech (10-20kbps)
Hi, (this is my first post here)
A previous thread, starting Date: Tue 19 Nov 2002 - 06:09:56 EST
"[vorbis] need speech and music in one"
http://www.xiph.org/archives/vorbis/200211/0142.html
expressed needs similar to mine, to encode a lengthy speech at low bitrate.
I did some tests initially in September then concluded in December, and I
was surprised to find Vorbis to be the best

Description of MDCT
The Vorbis audio format, uses something called the Modified
Discrete Cosine Transform (MDCT). I was interested in how this
worked, but did not know where to start. Is this the name of a
particular algorithm, or does it just mean something like a
cosine transform, but not quite right? So I asked the Vorbis
mailing list. Nobody answered.
It was not a high priority, so I did other things for

mp3 quality vs Vorbis 1.0?
Many of you have read and my "introduction to compressed audio with Vorbis"
and given me excellent feedback. But with 1.0 about to hit the streets, I
figured I'd freshen it up a bit.
[ http://grahammitchell.net/writings/vorbis_intro.html ]
In particular, it contains two paragraphs discussing the relative quality of
Vorbis vs mp3 at a certain target bitrate. These figures seem

APPLAUD.WAV problems
Hi!
I am very pleased with the progress that Ogg is making, expecially after I
read the latest comparision tests on
http://ff123.net/128test/instruct.html
that put OGG on top aside with MPC.
BUT the APPLAUD.WAV test case
( http://lame.sourceforge.net/download/samples/applaud.wav )
still produces **VERY** easily audible high-frequency artifacts when encoded
with OGG RC3 up to q4.9 (!!!). Things

RC3: I'm impressed
SUMMARY
I'm impressed.
RC3 withstood anything I could throw at it. "-q 3" is really Vorbis' sweet
spot, almost perfect, and "-q 0" is eminently usable, with only marginal
defects for normal usage.
Already sent money, will do that again.

I spent at least 40 hours in the last week testing RC3. I selected a few
fragments from pop, classic and jazz CDs in my

Interesting file-sharing idea
This may be unrealistic and useless, but I've been thinking about an interesting file-sharing solution.
In my system, only Ogg Vorbis files may be shared, and they should all be directly ripped from a CD. Nothing that someone would convert from MP3, etc. While that cannot be enforceable, it should be made clear. Also, track listings should be not filenames, but the Artist and Title of the

Where's the tool to do .ogg bitrate "peeling"?
Hello.
The page http://www.vorbis.com/faq.psp (last faq) and
http://cs.leander.isd.tenet.edu/~mitchell/vorbis_intro.html both state
that it's possible to lower the bitrate of an existant ogg enc file
without reencoding. Where does this feature exists? oggenc only likes wav
files as input, how can I feed it an .ogg file and get a lower bitrate
in a new one?

Launch of OggHelp.com
Hello everyone,
I would like to bring to your attention the new website that I have been working on. It is a portal for articles, links, and support for everything related to Ogg Vorbis. It just started and hopefully will be evolving rapidly.
http://www.ogghelp.com
I have modeled it after the group of successful Help pages such as http://VCDHelp.com and DVDHelp.com.
