Now that FLAC has officionally joined the Xiph family, there are three different free audio codecs, which can be stored/transported using the ogg container.
Would it be possible to create an API and/or a library that would cover them all? If my understanding of the situation is correct, if an application wants to support vorbis, speex and flac, it has to use three different interfaces. (That's what Stan Seibert is doing right now with ogg123.) If a unifying library would exist, application developers should only code one interface. This would make things a lot more simple. This could also help to spread speex and flac more quickly, because if vorbis-aware applications start to use the new, unified library, they get very near to speex and flac support... What do you think, does this make sense? -- Csillag Krist�f <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.NET email is sponsored by: SourceForge Enterprise Edition + IBM + LinuxWorld = Something 2 See! http://www.vasoftware.com _______________________________________________ Flac-dev mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/flac-dev
