Hi all, [For the uninitiated: a "peeler" is a program that transforms a Vorbis stream into a smaller, (somewhat) lower quality Vorbis stream, and does so quickly, by just throwing out some data.] After having prototyped several peelers that aim to peel to a certain filesize, or to a certain quality, with mixed success, I've now taken a different route: a peeler that aims for the

Hi all, wxRuby 1.9.1 introduced great Rubish style accessors (x.label as a synonym for x.get_label). I just found that get_id has no corresponding Rubish style id accessor. For a CheckListBox or a StaticText (I haven''t checked for other kind of controls), id just returns the Ruby object_id. This is very confusing and not consistent with other accessors. Chauk-Mean.

I set up a shared mailbox with dovecot and it basically works. However, before I can imap SELECT or STATUS the shared mailbox I have to first do an imap LIST, i.e, . list "" * If list is not done first, the imap select or status command on the shared mailbox results in a "NO" response with "mailbox doesn't exist" response text. I can provide more

What is the best (preferable open source) media player for oggs? I'm on windows, and Windows Media Player is the best thing I can seem to find. I've looked at WinAmp, QCD, Sonique, and FreeAmp, and they just don't seem to have the media library functionality WMP has. Is there another player out there I'm missing? Chris

Hi all, Yes, it's true. A new version of rehuff, the tool that losslessly compresses Vorbis files: one that is easy to compile, and that works with newer-than-two-years-ago streams, too! On 1.0 streams, you get about 3% size reduction, and the headers get _much_ smaller (which helps for fast-start network streams). Building it should be easy (you might have to add some -I and -L for

Hi All, Let me ask this question of the group: When bit rate peeling becomes available, how will the quality of the peeled Vorbis file compare to a file encoded at the target quality directly from the original? So, for: a.wav --> b.ogg (at q6) --> c.ogg (at q2) a.wav --------------------> d.ogg (at q2) how are c.ogg and d.ogg likely to compare in terms of audio

I worked on some ad data before and I found NYT article very biaised and not far from a fraud... Anyone knows if they got money from a - company - to play 'R'? Check out the title: R U Ready for R? Seems to me this title was stolen from XLSolutions www.xlsolutions-corp.com and they never mentioned XLSolutions in the article! They mentioned commercial R....never mentioned

Hello everbody, doing a #find(:first,an_id) with Rails 1.1.0 I expected that find returns the record which id mathches the given parameter an_id or nil if it couldn''t be found. This behaviour is documented on api.rubyonrails.org. But the find returns the first available object and not nil if an_id is not in the db. Is the doc on rubyonrails.org out of sync? Greetings, -- Daniel

Not sure if this is well known, but there is a relatively easy way to rip/encode your CDs with iTunes+oggenc: - Install the QuickTime components (http://qtcomponents.sf.net) - Rip CDs to AIFF format files - Run a script that encodes each aiff file with oggenc. This script could use the file name and directory name to fill in some of the tags. (The tags won't show up in iTunes, though.) -

Hello folks Anyone know if this would be enough to decode oggs? AMD Elan SC520 133 MHz If not, what seems to be the lower limit required for decoding oggs?

Hi: A friend asked me a question that I was unable to answer, so I'm posting it here. Can files created by the beta4 encoder be peeled down when that becomes available, or is the ability to encode peelable files also not implemented? My friend wants to know if they should switch over now or hold off until this becomes possible. Geoff. --- >8 ---- List archives:

Hiya, Here is the sources to my "rehuff" program. ./rehuff in.ogg out.ogg does a lossless recoding of a vorbis stream. (It generates optimal huffman codes for the particular stream). This code is meant for developers only, until someone is kind enough to provide good build and configure support for it. I won't. And no installation help questions please. There is a little patch

Some thoughts for the new year: 1) MDCT is good for image coding 2) image coding and audio coding are two very different things 3) combine 1 and 2 4) if a psycho model is good, after leaving out what it tells you you can without hurting quality, applying the same model should yield the same results as you got before 5) from 4: decode -> encode -> decode should result in (almost) the

No offense, Segher, but the output quality of this thing is awful. =) I'll disregard the fact that, at least with *my* compiler, the source tarball I downloaded reduces every packet to zero bytes, which isn't terribly interesting. I decided to set the byte reduction to something constant: I started by dividing each packet's size by 2 just to see what would happen. The resulting ogg

Hiya everyone, Is there a way to disable a thread that has degenerated into flaming? The recent "discussion" on /var/run descended into some quite nasty places and perhaps a lid should have been put on it. This seems to happen every few weeks and is somewhat embarrassing when I'm trying to persuade people of the "active and friendly Centos community" It was a shame that

Hello all, Finally I succeeded in uploading the test case I promised. It's at http://home.wanadoo.nl/segher/test1.wav.bz2 (It is a wav, the headers are a bit inconsistent, but encoder_example will be ok with it, as it just skips them). I did some thinking, and a possible solution is decreasing the ATH_Bark_dB[] for the lower frequencies. As the comments say, it's not really an ATH, but
