Ogg Vorbis is a completely open, patent-free, professional audio encoding and streaming technology that sounds better than MP3 and is gaining in popularity.
Changes in WinVorbis 1.62 :
- New: Now supports reading APE v2 file tags within WAV files, as well as RIFF LIST/INFO chunk and Cart Chunk track information.
- New: Updated OggEnc to auTuVb5.5 tunings for better sound quality.
Important Note :
- Some people are receiving an error when loading some ogg files. This has been tracked to some CD rippers placing MP3 ID3v2 tags at the top of the ogg files. WinVorbis/Vorbix will not currently open any files that contain this tag.
- WinVorbis/Vorbix does not fully support multiple stream Ogg files. Only comment tags in the first stream will be read, and all others will be deleted when the file is saved. Multiple stream files will also show an incorrect duration and average bitrate on the File Info tab. These files should be quite rare and only likely to come from capturing an OGG broadcast stream, or concatenating multiple ogg files.
