Hello, I would like to know if there is a plugin for internet explorer 9 so that it supports playback of Ogg Vorbis files. In fact, I'm devellop a media site, and I use the tag <audio>. Since I want to promote ogg vorbis, I will require users to post their music in this format. For versions of Internet Explorer less than 9, I'll use a flash drive that can play ogg files. His name is ffmp3. http://ffmp3.sourceforge.net/ But as internet explorer 9 supports the tag <audio>, I thought that there might be a way to add this support to Internet Explorer 9. Thank you for your help Jerome Perret
You could probably continue using your <audio> tag and use Cortado as a fallback: http://www.theora.org/cortado/ -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

Hello, if one wants to impose the Ogg Vorbis format, it will take more than a Java applet. How is it that there is a plugin for Internet Explorer webm 9, but no plugin Ogg Theora? Jerome

That's not exactly what you're asking for, but it's close, since "audio/webm" should work on all modern browsers. (Except Safari -- I'm not sure what the exact status of the QT support is.)

(Theora video is based on VP3.) -Matt
