Speex dev - Aug 2004 - Speex, what container?

I'm going to use speex to compress sound that was record from a sound board.
What container should I use so it will be able to play in some sound player
available for windows, ogg or wave?

If I choose to use wav container I simple have to put the speex stream into the
data chunk of the wave file? I heard that there is a codec to put speex in a wav
file so it can be played in windows media player. Can u tell me where I can find
info about it?

And if I choose Ogg can you tell be where to find code that writes that format
into a file?

Thanks in advance!

speexenc will make ogg/speex files from a .wav file.  The code is
pretty straightforward and should be fairly easy to modify to read
directly from a sound card, if that's what you want to do.  If you
don't care about unix support, then you can get the ACM codec for
speex at www.openacm.org.  It is my understanding that you can play
these with just about anything using the ACM interface under windows,
but I "don't do windows," so you're on your own there.
