When I say cross platform I mean that it could easily be ported and/or have as similar an interface as all the other players so that you could play the file on any platform and still have a farmiliar player(You'd cover 98% of everyone by just having Linux, Win32, and MacOS X versions avalible).>Christian has released a Windows codec so you can use speex >in the WAVE container. > >Where can I find this?

It works on Win32, *nix, and MacOS X systems(they also have a MacOS 9 version avalible but its a little dated). I believe they used wxWindows for the GUI but I'm not really sure about anything else. I'm not a programmer, just a guy with an idea. --- >8 ---- List archives: http://www.xiph.org/archives/ Ogg project homepage: http://www.xiph.org/ogg/ To unsubscribe from this list, send a message to 'speex-dev-request@xiph.org' containing only the word 'unsubscribe' in the body.

There is a lot of complexity associated with it, though. Even if you elect to just have a command-line player, there's still the audio interface to deal with.
