I'm a loyal user of GoldWave (http://www.goldwave.com/), and recently the Ogg Vorbis support module has been updated to RC3. Is it still safer for me to save files as WAV and then use the "official" tool (oggenc) to encode my files, or are all RC3 implementations the same, and it makes no difference with what program I encode the files, as long as the module uses the latest release candidate? I assume that for someone to update the support module, they go to the official web site, download libraries, code, and whatnot, and merge it with their program. Is there any way to screw it up, to where the module will make faulty files? Thanks. -- Philip. <p>--- >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 'vorbis-request@xiph.org' containing only the word 'unsubscribe' in the body.

Is there any way to screw it up, to where the module will make faulty files?I don't know of any third party encoder implementations for Vorbis. And RC3 is our versioning scheme, so if it says RC3, it's most likely the same code as oggenc. does goldwave show you bitrates or a quality scale? jack. --- >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 'vorbis-request@xiph.org' containing only the word 'unsubscribe' in the body.

i was wondering the same thing, because i recently used it to rip some wav files since it is one of the few programs for me that will get them halfway fast and without pops and clicks =-( waiting for cdparanoia for windows! =) Andy andycool22@peoplepc.com AndyCool22 on AIM http://livejournal.com/~andycool22 ----- Original Message ----- From: "Philip M.
