Hmm, as long as those libs both have separate calls to just get file metadata (without saying "I want to decode and play this file") then those will work fine.

Yes they do. libvorbisfile is really easy, but I'm having trouble reading the libflac API docs.
So I took the metaflac source as a base and tried to simplify it into just listing metadata,
but I guess I oversimplified something ... I'd be interested other examples (in C, not C++).

I have ogg and wma working now, I just need to do the necessary character encoding
conversions. wma uses UTF-16, and ogg and flac use UTF-8, although flac needs a
conversion from raw (whatever that is) to UTF-8 first.

Oh.. and speaking of alpha leaks..

I hope to receive the new cardboard shipping boxes this week, and the first new dock that I send out in one will include my Amersfoort v3alpha CD!

Of course, I'm not sure how much use it'll be.. Air Canada baggage handlers seem to take a rather perverse pride in their abilities..


Well, I guess I was the lucky winner - I think. I didn't bother trying to put that disc in my computer yet. It cracked half way through, and it looks as though there is some glue on the bottom of it. I'll post a pic of it soon....

Maybe wait 'till this guy makes one that works on CDs!

Oh, cool look! A top secret 3.00 alpha CD from Amersfoort!!


AHHH!! Too bad the thing is cracked and unplayable. Why must thou torture me?!?!?

Ah yes, that does look familiar!

(and why does this thread cause my mozilla to use a different font for the entire page..??)

I don't know -- the font is fine in my mozilla and konqueror. And to stay on topic of this threat -- as the Alpha male in my household, I'm going to take a leak. Maybe that will satisfy the initiator of this thread?

nyeah, a cd would do.

Hmmm.. in mozilla->preferences I had unchecked "allow documents to use other fonts". When I now "check" that item, this thread displays correctly.

Weird.
