All, Monty has made some improvements to the vorbis reference implementation, and we're ready to do a new release. Please sanity check the release candidate at people.xiph.org/~giles/2007/libvorbis-1.2.0rc2.tar.bz2 And let us know if there are any problems. The plan is to make an official release on Wednesday. Changes since the 1.1.2 release: * new ov_fopen() convenience call that avoids the common stdio conflicts with ov_open() and MSVC runtimes. * libvorbisfile now handles multiplexed streams * improve robustness to corrupt input streams * fix a minor encoder bug * updated RTP draft * build system updates * minor corrections to the specification This does not incorporate any of the tunings from the aoTuV branch since 1.1.0, but the robustness fixes and multiplexed stream handling are worth upgrading for.. Thanks to everyone who contributed! -r

I am overlooking some stupid mistake of mine? I have Ubuntu 7.04 32bit x86 over here. Sebastian
I just tried to build the VS2005 project for libvorbis. Two things about it: * libogg.lib is not linked in I added ..\..\..\..\libogg\win32\VS2003\libogg\Debug\libogg.lib as additional dependency and that made it link * Why are there no .sln (solution) files included? Looks like on purpose? Let me know if you need help with the Visual Studio stuff. Sebastian
I've heard a lot that it was impossible, however, while I don't know how vorbis encoding works, the ACM is pretty well open to anything, basically, you feed the decoder and you get the result, and it doesn't matter if you didn't feed it enough and the decoder has no result yet. You just keep feeding until you get the result. Only problem may be with 32bit float output.> Hi, > > I thought there were problems with ACM codecs and VBR.
