Hey everyone, I've written an Ogg Vorbis plug-in for Adobe Premiere. You
can see it here on GitHub:
https://github.com/fnordware/AdobeOgg
I just finished the first beta a few hours ago. You can download binary
plug-ins from here:
http://www.fnordware.com/downloads/Ogg_v0.5b1_mac.zip
http://www.fnordware.com/downloads/Ogg_v0.5b1_win.zip
If you don't have Premiere, you can always download the 30-trial. If you
don't have Mac or Windows, then Adobe just doesn't love you.* ;)
I am new to the world of Ogg Vorbis, and actually new to the world of audio
programming in general. Previous to this I always dealt with pixels, not
samples. But then I wrote a WebM plug-in recently which made me learn Vorbis,
which lead me to FLAC, which led me here. Now I'm going to take a look at
Theora.
Since I'm a newbie, I'd appreciate it if you experts would take a look
at what I wrote and spot any bugs or provide other feedback. For Vorbis, the
only controls I provide are to let the user select the bitrate/quality of their
output. Are there more options to expose?
Finally, a plea for help. Writing this plug-in was incredibly easy because of
how simple the libogg and libvorbis libraries are. Really, everything just
worked (or appears to....I'm a newb, remember). So I figured I'd just
throw FLAC support into the plug-in for good measure, but it turned out to be
much harder. No offense, FLAC people! I got the Mac version working, but I
tried for an hour or two to resolve my x64 linking problems on Windows to no
avail. So I gave up and #ifdef'd out the FLAC support for Windows. In the
spirit of open source, would any of you like to give me a hand so the Windows
users (I hear there are a few of them) can have FLAC too?
