similar to: "aoTuV" beta6 was released

... and was wondering how it differs from the official libvorbis and why there is need for a fork. Could somebody shed some light on the past and background of the libvorbis/aoTuV story please? Both on- and offlist mails are welcome. Thanks in advance, Sebastian

For those who missed it, there's a new release of aoTuV (beta 4.5). According to Aoyumi-san, there's some new tuning for audio below quality set 3 (-q3), but I have not tested it myself yet. I wonder when Monty will actually check the new versions of aoTuV and merge them with main trunk. Latest tests on HA show the latest tunings of Aoyumi-san have matured Vorbis a lot, and

aoTuV Beta5 (based on aoTuV Release 1) http://www.geocities.jp/aoyoume/aotuv/ Changes: aoTuV Beta5 2006/10/24 * The action of noise normalization has been improved. This has an effect in the sound roughness and tremor problem etc. in the low bitrate. * The threshold of a stereo mode change was calculated dynamically. Some of problems which originate in channel coupling by this will improve. *

I released "aoTuV" beta6.03 (2014) of OggVorbis encoder and library (based on libVorbis). Source code and reference binary (win32) is here. http://www.geocities.jp/aoyoume/aotuv/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CHANGES (for general) from old beta6.03 # The latest aoTuV beta6.03 was unified with Xiph.Org's libvorbis1.3.4. The part

I announce release of libvorbis aoTuV beta 5.6. This is the library of Ogg Vorbis I conformity. I performed original tuning (part of encoding) for the reference source code of Ogg Vorbis of Xiph.Org to origin. Changed part from beta5.5 # ?Important!? The security hole of old libvorbis origin was fixed like latest libvorbis. The software using the decode function of the former library should

I announce the revision version of aoTuV beta5.6. Changed part from beta5.6 # Fixed the error to occur by specific software. (floating point exception) Aoyumi

This is the library of Ogg Vorbis I conformity. I performed original tuning (part of encoding) for the reference source code of Ogg Vorbis of Xiph.Org to origin. ***** Changed part from beta5 ***** # The noise control of the Impulse block was expanded. This is effective with the outstanding sample of the pre-echo. # The pre-echo reduction code came to work at a lower bit rate. # Noise

Sorry for asking, but libogg and libvorbis especially are still developed? No updates from september 2004. I just need to know if I have to move to FLAC [which is actively maintained] to store my CDs.

Hay! Has anyone come across these errors using valgrind for the oggenc tool or the encoder_example.c: ==13108== Invalid read of size 4 ==13108== at 0x4155734: _vp_offset_and_mix (in /usr/local/lib/libvorbis.so.0.4.1) ==13108==

Are there plans to incorporate aoTuV mode into vorbis, perhaps a commandline switch to make optionally available the aoTuV tunings? The abx results from aoTuV are impressive... http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/index.php?showtopic=21916&st=50&&#entry215109 -Dan

Soon, Firefox 3.1 and other browsers will start to support vorbis and users will increase vorbis use on the net. Most users (as most Linux distributions) are however using the reference xiph.org vorbis library which generate worse files than the aoTuV library from http://www.geocities.jp/aoyoume/aotuv/ . According to latest discussion: https://trac.xiph.org/ticket/1251 the aoTuV code should have

Can someone explain this, I have both version of oggenc and oggenc-aotuv installed, wanted to compare theme.. BUT, when I type the commanded: rick@KB32bit:~$ oggenc-aotuv -v OggEnc v1.0.1 (libvorbis 1.0.1) rick@KB32bit:~$ Why don't I see OggEnc-Aotuv Beta 5...etc Odd? Thanks - Rich

when will be merged the vorbis-aotuv branch into the reference library of vorbis? I feel that the development of vorbis is almost null if the aotuv don't exist... it will be nice to have the reference library using the last tunings as soon as posible... I gess it will be 1.1.3? or there are other surprises that can make it 1.2.0? __________________________________________________ Correo

Hi folks, We're gearing up to the next full release of the Vorbis codec; I've just tagged a release candidate in SVN in order to encourage wider testing toward final 1.1 release. This release includes the following updates: 1) Adoption of AoTuV and other tuning work by Vorbis developers outside of Xiph into the mainline codebase 2) New bitrate management code 3) bugfixes In more

Hi, Excuse my ignorance, I'm primarily a LInux user and don't have a Windows install on any hardware that's actually working at the moment. Is it possible to use aoTuV B3 with Oddcast? Is this simply a matter of replacing a DLL? If so, are there any precompiled DLLs anywhere, or is anyone with the appropriate tools prepared to cook one up for me? I have people who are probably

Hi again, I was just looking at reviews on vorbis and reading some listening test results when I came across several web sites that were saying something about Vorbis quality -2. From what I read a few programs have Vorbis going down to quality -2 and I even think hydrogen audio forums mentions it in a speech compression topic. Does this quality really exist and has anyone even heard of it? I
