Projects/Formats

In an effort to bring open-source ideals to the world of multimedia the Xiph.org Foundation develops a multitude of amazing products.

Container Formats

Ogg: Media container. This is our native format and the recommended container for Xiph codecs.
Ogg Skeleton: Skeleton information on all logical content bitstreams in Ogg.

SpeexRTP: RTP payload format for voice
VorbisRTP: RTP payload format for general audio
TheoraRTP: RTP payload format for video
XSPF: XML playlist format

Codecs

Compressed Codecs:
- Vorbis: Audio codec with a fixed point decoder
- Theora: Video codec
- FLAC: Free Lossless Audio Codec
- Speex: Speech codec
Metadata Codecs:
- CMML: Continuous Media Markup Language, used for Annodex and subtitles (xine, vlc, gstreamer, and DirectShow support)

Software for distributing media

Icecast: Streaming server
Ices: Source client for Icecast servers

Other software

OggComponent/VorbisComponent: Wrappers to integrate Ogg-Vorbis into MacOsX

Work in Progress

Demonstrations

Want to hear Xiph in action? These projects are using our codecs, formats, or libraries.

VorbisStreams: Stations streaming with the Vorbis codec
Games that use Vorbis: Games using the Vorbis codec for music or sound effects
VorbisHardware: Hardware players using the Vorbis codec
TVersity Media Server: A UPNP/AV compliant media server that uses the Ogg Vorbis libraries to transcode audio files to the Ogg Vorbis format.

Project management

Wiki internal

Sandbox: Testbed for testing editing skills.
Translations: What about some translation work
