similar to: Flac and lyrics

Both MPEG-4 File Format (mp4) and Matroska (mkv) have an interesting format for lyrics and subtitles. Since these container formats can contain multiple contain streams, lyrics or subtitles are just another "stream" interleaved with the rest of the data. They are synchronized by having timestamps like any other stream. The payload is just text data. If you don't care about

FYI, Unless you've been checking the FLAC site you might have missed some encouraging things that have happened in the last few months. I haven't really been announcing things in the lists along the way, but to summarize: - Primus and Phish have been selling soundboard recordings of shows in FLAC - Magnatune (an indie label) offers their whole catalog in FLAC and Vorbis now - More

No. this in incorrect. The VorbisComment "COVERART" was only ever unofficial, and has been deprecated

Hi all, Xiph aims at developing open-standards media formats. Though xiph.org tells about vorbis/theora/flac/speex, nothing is mentioned about container to use (that is ogg/ogm). I have a few questions Is there a difference between ogg and ogm? I guess its only the extension that is different and everything else is same. Some tools (like ogmtools) are available to create ogm files. What is

Hello, I read through the specifications here: http://flac.sourceforge.net/format.html but the document is not "autonomous". Instead, sections entitled "prediction" and "residual coding", use external references, some of with are unavailable (dead link) or in poor state. What i mean here is that it is not possible to write a decoder from scratch using only the spec

To be honest, I just added Theora because I needed a simple way to multiplex streams. Also, it'd

One of the great things about Ogg (in addition to fantastic sound quality) is the ability to insert anything into a file tag, including lyrics. What would be sweet would be a visualization plug-in which would read the "lyrics" tag and display this text in a resizable window. Does anyone have experience programming winamp plug-ins?

Hi ogg-dev list, I have improved the format formally known as Media Description and Metadata (MDMF) for the Ogg Container Format. Please have a look at the M3F page in the wiki http://wiki.xiph.org/M3F The format have been simplified and designed primarily with audio and movie recordings in mind. The old version focused on providing separate tools for each media type, were the new version

Hi, I have two questions 1) How can I convert a raw miniDV file to ogg? I have made a continuation to the conference I organised two years ago on gravitational waves Astrophysics and Relativity and I have a lot of miniDVs to be converted to ogg. I think I have seen the information before but, after looking for some one hour, I have given up. And, by the way, do you know how to dowload the file

Hi, i have the big pleasure to officially announce that the matroska multimedia container project has finally left alpha status and turned into public beta status last night. By following the links below you will be able to obtain various tools to create, edit and play matroska audio and video files on your computers. Supported Operating Systems are currently Windows and Linux, but it seems

Hi, I've heard somewhere that it is possible to store inside .ogg files text streams and thus it should be possible to store lyrics for the sond directly in the file. Is it true? Could anybody point me towards some code how to do it (Python preferable, but not required)? Is there any documentation for text streams in .ogg files? Thanks for any reply, Mat?j -- GPG Finger: 89EF 4BC6 288A

Hi Folks, What is the proper way to embed text stream into the Ogg stream? I need to have text information (lyrics as example) recorded together with the audio. Is there a standard mechanism for that? What is the right way to do it?

hi everyone ! since nobody answered the question in the extension-thread, i would like to ask again in a new thread: why does xiph and the theora-team not promote the matroska-format? do you just prefer ogg because its "home-made" or are there technical advantages over mkv? thanks! greetings hannes hauswedell

I've come full circle on the Ogg text stream format, back to arbitrary associated xml streams. What's changed? Mostly rolling the requirements around in my head, and weighting them differently. I think we've dealt with the complexity issue; this functionality can be optional for "dumb" audio players, and possibly also for dumb video players, though there it's a smaller

Hi all, I just did a brief test with 3 different codec combinations: 1) ffmpeg sorenson/flv, mp3 audio in flv container 2) ffmpeg h264/vorbis audio/matroska 3) ogg/theora/vorbis using encoder_example Here are the results: 10721201 2010-10-16 14:46 origem1.flv 20731108 2010-09-13 23:04 origem1.mkv 33101703 2010-10-03 11:24 origem1.ogv as you can see, flv wins hands down, and it doesn't look

Hi everyone, I face a problem trying to encode a mkv file into theora using directshow filters I have a mkv file containing only video encoded in YUY2. I use the DirectShowNet Lib V2.1 ( <http://sourceforge.net/projects/directshownet/files/> http://sourceforge.net/projects/directshownet/files/) I use the matroska splitter directshow filter v1.0.2.9 (

Hi all, Is there an effort underway to support lyrics (or, more generic, subtitles) in Ogg streams ? I'd say the best place for such textual data would be in it's own stream (Ogg/Tolkien for all I care ;) with time-indices for when a certain word is said by who. This allows for karaoke style lyrics and for simple full text lyrics dumps. It could also be used for subtitling/closed
