scripts and an XMMS plugin. The guy who wrote this code is on crack so Theo had to build his own distfile (I know because I tried to port this myself..). PR: 20766 Submitted by: Theo van Klaveren <t.vanklaveren@student.utwente.nl>

Vorbis is a general purpose audio and music encoding format
|
|
contemporary to MPEG-4's AAC and TwinVQ, the next generation beyond
|
|
MPEG audio layer 3. Unlike the MPEG sponsored formats (and other
|
|
proprietary formats such as RealAudio G2 and Windows' flavor of the
|
|
month), the Vorbis CODEC specification belongs to the public domain.
|
|
All the technical details are published and documented, and any
|
|
software entity may make full use of the format without royalty or
|
|
patent concerns.
|
|
|
|
This package contains libvorbis, an LGPLed software implementation of
|
|
the Vorbis specification by the Xiphophorus company
|
|
(http://www.xiph.org/), vorbisfile, an LGPLed convenience library
|
|
built on Vorbis designed to simplify common uses and a number of GPL
|
|
example programs, utilities and player plugins.
