similar to: Mime Type and Ogg (More)

Hi, I don't really know the details of the discussion, but I'd like to present this issue from a user-oriented perspective, and from the perspective of how Nautilus wants to use data files. In brief, Nautilus makes the assumption that the mime type is sufficient to pick the right applicatiob or pluggable component to view/edit a particular content type. This is quickly coming to be the

Me again... :) Despite all of the comments made in favor of the .OGG extension, I'm still going to have to side with the "different extension" camp. There are a number of reasons for this... First off... from where I'm sitting, it doesn't matter how much of a grey-area you get into, I can't think of a single scenario where you wouldn't be able to say that it was

Hi, I've already sent this to feedback@vorbis.com, but I got no response and this might be more correctly placed here anyway, so here is a revised vesrion. I have one thing to criticize, which is the file extension *.OGG. It's ambigous (the Netrek meaning) and using it for both video and audio seems confusing. Plus, there are a lot of OGG files floating around that are generated by

Alright folks, here's the solution. 1) Keep extensions to 3 letters for audio & video. Except for special situations where the user might be doing a codec specific name. Since the official extensions are 3 letters, those can always be used on any 8.3 device. 2) introduce a new extension .OGV for ogg container video. With a strong preference for Xiph only codecs. (If you want 3rd

Hi, AFE currently has a bug where it can't handle audio-only

Theora and Vorbis both uses same extension .ogg. I know ogg is a container, just like avi. But in my opinion video and audio files should have different extensions (using .ogv can be a nice idea). To a media player it doesn't matter what extension a file uses, but to a human who does a ls in a directory full of media files having different extensions will help a lot. I know one can use file

Dear David, I hope it's ok to forward your email to the developer lists. I have not seen a comprehensive scheme for MIME type naming and file extensions for ogg files yet - please anybody put me in the picture if there is. However, I have seen application/x-ogg used for ogg-vorbis files, which is according to MIME type registration rules an unregistered and experimental MIME type (see

Sorry, but I think generic extension names are far from perfect. Here are some additional problems to consider: 1) Language. When people talk about file types, they almost never say "dot" at the beginning. They say "MP3 files". For example, "Does that player support MP3 files?" If you have an extension of ".music" this ends up being "Does that
