Hi, > You can try the Ogg DirectShow filter to get Windows support for Speex: > http://www.illiminable.com/ogg/ if you wait a little longer, I am trying to provide speex support for the ffmpeg project (www.ffmpeg.org). It does encode/decode to/from avi and wav, a support for ogg has not been done, and my question is, should it be necessary? I don't really like ogg in first place..

Thanks for the reply. We are currently using AMBE (4Kbps) for our Traffic/Weather Channels. If you have ever had a chance to hear the service, you will know that AMBE does not do us well. I understand that 2Kbps is low quality, but any poorer than AMBE? If can get a decent quality for other low bandwidth talk channels, such as about 10-16Kbps and have it sound rather clean, then I would be

Thanks Jim, that's understood. When I say AMBE isn't working well, I only mean from the audience acceptance point of view. Technically it is fine. It is exactly doing the job we had expected. It's the long standing wish that everyone wants... More for less. We are just seeking a bit of magic that just may not be there. Ideally finding a codec that can perform

Hi i have seen that the dbPowerAmp ripping and encoding software supports a new so-called "FLAC uncompressed" format, e.g. http://www.audiostream.com/content/dbpoweramps-flac-lossless-uncompressed-wish-come-true i know only the normal flac compression levels from 0 to 8. have i missed an option on the flac comamnd line tool or how could i achieve that on the linux command line

What dbPowerAmp does is encapsulate the wav file into a FLAC container without actually compressing it. I guess it can be a bit arguable if you can technically call it a FLAC file :) It's like using "Store" mode in RAR, for instance. The idea behing this "uncompressed FLAC" is to give the FLAC tagging abilities to people who don't want to compress their files. But

I've been having problems with Audiograbber, it got the track breaks all wrong on a couple of CDs. I think it re-used the track breaks from the first CD when reading subsequent CDs. Does anyone have any recommendations for a good CD ripper? I've also tried Exact Audio Copy, but didn't get on with it very well. Phil Hibbs Cap Gemini Ernst & Young Aston, UK

Hi Dave, I haven't reviewed metaflac to see whether its algorithm might incorrectly show a tag twice. It's possible that dBpoweramp appended a tag that already existed. I imagine that if metaflac says there's an occurrence of the tag with no value, and another with a value, then that's probably accurate. Can you show the output of metaflac? That might help verify. You could use

I have been trying to create some administration guidline to adding users and groups in a Samba 3.0 PDC. I have most of the task documented. The problem I run into is where can I set the attribute for a user to change their password on next logon. Any help is appreciated. Terrance Bey

Hello list, I am having trouble listening to GSM files created by Asterisk using a browser. I am noticing that some of my users succeed in listening to them and some others don't. I guess it is something of a codec problem that does not seem to be installed on all machines (though they are all WinXP). Anybody knows what one should do to listen to GSM files? I send files through the

Well for a long time now my wine menu entry in gnome has been gone. Most threads I read all say to fine the <deleted> tag in .config/menus/applications.menu but mine doesn't have it.

Does such a thing exist? I know I can convert the oggs to wavs and then to the audio CD, but it would be good to do it in one step. If there is nothing available right now, are there any freeware / open-source products in the pipeline?

Hi I am Rupesh from India. I have a huge directory of size 93.5 gb with 8500 mp3 files and 2000 sub directories. All these mp3s are speeches recorded by someone at 64 kbps. I want to compress these files recursively to opus using lame or another tool with 16 kbps bit rate and 11050 sample rate. I have compressed the above huge directory with above options using ffmpeg and the resulted

If I run the metaflac command, "metaflac --show-all-tags path\filename". There is a tag that is listed twice. Only one of the tags has a value. This seems to be the case for all of my flac files. I ripped these with dBpoweramp and this tag was added/defined as a "custom" tag. I can run the same command using exiftool, "exiftool --tag-all path\filename" and I only

I'm moving my Ogg Vorbis collection off of my Linux server and onto my laptop. I plan on using iTunes to play my collection, but, that's a whole 'nother can of worms. I'm having trouble moving my complete collection over because dbPowerAmp (an application I used to love) made some dumb decisions about naming my files. For example, in track/album/artist names that contained a

Hi all, Just wondering what Samba administration tool is the most frequently used ? What tool do admins use daily ? I've tried Cmd line / Samba tools, Swat, Webmin, LAM... and still haven't found a full-featured one and *user-friendly* one... Many Thanks :) Ganael.

Is there a program that allows conversion of Real files (*.rm) to Ogg Vorbis? (And I should know the answer to this, but what is the file extension of Ogg Vorbis files?) Kirk

Hi ! Audio CDs seem to be invisible to winecfg. I want to use dbpowerramp CD Ripper under Linux using WINE. CD Ripper doesn't see audio CDs, too. I am using WINE 1.3.33, Ubuntu 11.10 64bit. Ubuntu itself correctly identifies the CD drives, and the Audio CDs. The CD-Rom-Drives are internal ATAPI drives, and external Plextor drives connected via firewire. If I put _data_ CDs into those drives

What's the best way to rip from CDs to Ogg tracks on Windows?
