Re: [LAU] [OT]: Publish music also in OGG format please?

May I kindly and humbly suggest that people posting on LAU as links to 'straight' mp3 files also provide a link to a file in OGG format? IMHO it makes sense given the nature of the list and the better experience for readers/listeners and it only really takes very little effort [1] Lorenzo. [1] Example using oggenc (in the vorbis-tools package on debian-based distros). If you have the original wave file (better): oggenc -q 9 my_file.wav #will create my_file.ogg use -o option to save to another file. See man oggenc for many more options If you only have an mp3 version (also requires lame): FILE=my_file; lame --decode $FILE.mp3 /tmp/$FILE.wav && oggenc -q 9 /tmp/$FILE.wav -o ./$FILE.ogg # replace my_file at the beginning with the filename of the mp3 file withut extension # could be done without the temporary wave file through raw pipes but one must know sampling rate, bitrate and channels of the file _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user(a)lists.linuxaudio.org http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
