Here you'll find all mobile players known to natively support [[Vorbis]].

When updating this information, please consider these guidelines: Use the term Vorbis not <strike>OGG</strike> ([[Ogg]] is the container format, Vorbis is the codec name). Add information about other Xiph-codecs such as Speex, FLAC, and Theora. Do not add information about non-Xiph-codecs such as MP3, WMA, or WAV.

This page contains a [[PortablePlayers#Portable Vorbis Native Support Table|handy overview table]] of recent portable players that play [[Ogg]] Vorbis files. Very detailed descriptions of these and many more players (old and new) are available on these sub-pages:

* [[PortablePlayers/Flash|Flash Memory Storage]]
* [[PortablePlayers/Harddisk|Harddisk Storage]]
* [[PortablePlayers/Others#CD.2FDVD_Audio_Players|CD/DVD Audio Players]]

@wiki-admins: It looks like this mediawiki instance does not support nice table cell templates (like in [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_BitTorrent_clients#Operating_system_support this example]). The support for this table related features would really improve this table layout.

Vorbis

2010-10-26T18:51:28Z

Hannes: some commata and restructure, the detour into other codecs inside ogg is weird

'''Vorbis''' is a patent-clear, fully open, general purpose audio encoding format standard that rivals or even surpasses the 'upcoming' generation of proprietary codecs ([[Wikipedia:Advanced Audio Coding|AAC]] and [[Wikipedia:TwinVQ|TwinVQ]], also known as VQF). There is no raw Vorbis stream defined, instead the Vorbis codec is typically used in the [[Ogg]] container format for audio files. Because for a long time the Ogg container was quasi exclusive for Vorbis people often refer to it as 'Ogg Vorbis'. Later the FLAC audio codec as well as the video codecs Theora and Dirac began to be used inside Ogg too. In 2010 the [[WebM]] format was defined using the Vorbis codec inside the WebM container.

libvorbis, a BSD-licensed source implementation of Vorbis as a library is available; See the [http://xiph.org/vorbis/ Ogg Vorbis page] for documentation, downloads and distribution terms.

Many hard- and software players support Ogg Vorbis; see [http://www.vorbis.com/ vorbis.com] or the links below for a list of all the players we know about.

Applications that use Speex

2010-10-26T18:24:44Z

Hannes: added links to speex's "official" list and wikipedia

[[Speex]] is a popular codec for compressed speech. Below is a list of applications known to use Speex.
This list doesn’t include applications that can use system codecs.

* [http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/flashplayer10/releasenotes.html Flash 10]

A more comprehensive list is maintained at the official Speex website's [http://www.speex.org/software/ Plugins & Software page]. The [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speex Wikipedia entry on Speex] also has a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speex#Applications list of applications].

Bounties

2010-10-26T18:19:30Z

Hannes: libfishsound supports FLAC since 0.9.2

These are proposed bounty projects, similar to http://gnome.org/bounties/
or the [http://ghostscript.com/article/58.html Ghostscript bug bounty] program.
We don't have the same level of funding but could start a pot with $10-$100 and
let people contribute to specific bounties through paypal.

=== Xiph Quicktime Plugin ===
[http://www.xiph.org/quicktime/ QuickTime Components] is now a project hosted on xiph.org.

You have to write a Quicktime Plugin for the Ogg container and the Xiph Codec Family.
[http://qtcomponents.sf.net qtcomponents] provides support for Ogg Vorbis and MNG. This could be used as start.
Xiph Quicktime Plugin has to support encoding/decoding for:
* Ogg Media container
**[http://qtcomponents.sf.net qtcomponents] ''has an operational pluggable API for import, it needs some work to be long term supportable. It does not have a pluggable API for exporting at this time.''
* Support for Chained Ogg Streams
**[http://qtcomponents.sf.net qtcomponents] ''imports chained files as multiple tracks in QuickTime. It does not create chained files during export.''
* Support for Icecast Streams (sending is optional)
**[http://qtcomponents.sf.net qtcomponents] ''implements nothing towards this item. First up is a reverse-engineering effort, as the specifications for a streaming media handler have not been published.''
* Support for Xiph Codec Family: Vorbis, Theora, FLAC, Speex, Writ
**[http://qtcomponents.sf.net qtcomponents] ''has code for Vorbis and Speex (not working at the moment) and there is code at [http://damien.drix.free.fr/qtflac/ Damien Drix's site] for FLAC (decode only).''
It must also be possible to use the Xiph codecs in .mov files in combination with other quicktime codecs.
*[http://qtcomponents.sf.net qtcomponents] ''supports embedding media encoded with Xiph codes into .mov files.''
The plugin should work with at least QuickTime 6.x and 7.x on Mac OS X and Windows. (Mac OS 9 would be nice but probably isn't as important.)

All work must be released under the GPL.

Proposed bounty: 100€

=== Aggressive low-bitrate libvorbis encoding improvements for Vorbis I ===
libvorbis has a lot of room for improvement in all quality/bitrate departments, particularly at the lower quality levels / bitrates. There are many directions from which to approach this problem.

To claim this bounty, the following criteria would have to be met:
* A 25%-or-better reduction in bitrate for quality levels -1, 0, 1 on a reasonable testsuite while maintaining qualitative equivilence (or improvement) in community testing.
* No overall qualitative/bitrate regressions in quality levels 2 upwards
* Output ogg files compatible with Vorbis I spec
* Changes under suitable license for re-integration with Xiph.Org libvorbis

Proposed bounty: 200€

=== iPod playback support ===
The [http://ipodlinux.sourceforge.net/ Linux on iPod] project has vorbis decode working (with alternate firmware) at a good fraction of realtime. It should be a small matter of optimization to get it working
for useful playback.

Proposed bounty: 100€

=== Ogg Vorbis Bitrate Peeling ===
:Note: a bounty for this project has been posted on [https://launchpad.net/ launchpad.net]: [https://launchpad.net/bounties/ogg-vorbis-bitrate-peeling Add bitrate peeling to the standard libvorbis encoding library].
Ogg Vorbis bitrate peeling has been a topic brought up time and again to combat MP3 enthusiasts. But this feature does not actually exist, only the mere possibility abounds. This bounty is set to change that.
The peeler must meet the following criteria:
* Any Vorbis stream can be converted (not transcoded) to a lower quality setting
* Resulting streams would be identical or nearly identical to a stream generated by encoding the original source to the selected quality
* This process is reasonably fast (that is, signifigantly faster than re-encoding from source)
The following must also be accomplished to claim this bounty:
* The encoding libraries must be updated to create peelable Vorbis streams natively
* Old Vorbis streams must be peelable already, or convertable with a utility in order to be made peelable
* If older streams are not natively peelable, old unpeelable Vorbis streams must be identifiable and discernable from peelable streams in such a way as to facilitate transcoding streams from the old format
* All work submitted must be licenced under a BSD style licence (excepting circumstances where other licences may conflict)

Proposed bounty: 100€
