On this page you can find all static players that are known to support Ogg Vorbis. This includes Hi-Fi components such as CD/DVD players and car audio equipment.

Hi-Fi components

This player is a streaming client for video, audio and images. It supports MP3, AC3, AAC, WAV, WMA, Ogg Vorbis and internet radio. Supported picture formats are JPEG, GIF, TIF, BMP and PNG. It can play back MPEG-1/-2/-4, Xvid, RMP4. It has RCA connectors, a digital output, supports HDTV and can surf the internet.
This is a streaming client that uses ethernet and WLAN for connecting. It has a composite, component and s-video out and sterea and S/PDIF out. It supports MPEG-1/-2/-4, DivX, Xvid, MOV, MP3, Ogg Vorbis, AC3, WMA, JPG, BMP, GIF. The server software seems to support only windows.
This product is a DVD player and streaming client with HDTV support. It has wireless and wired networking and a USB port. The media server software only runs on Windows (UPnP AV). It supports many formats: video (SVCD/DVD/DivX HD/Xvid/RealMedia/WMV HD), audio (MP3, Ogg Vorbis, WAV, AAC, WMA, AC3) and picture (JPG, GIF, BMP, TIF, PNG). It can be integrated with the NAS solution LinkStation/TeraStation for media storage such that no PC is required.
These are music servers based on PC technology with a capacity from 80 to 300 GB. They support MP3, Ogg Vorbis, FLAC and WAV.
This item is part of the new generation of DVD players like the Kiss DP-600 and the models from I-O Data and Buffalo -- it can play DVDs, but also WMV-HD DVDs and supports all kinds of audio and video codecs: MPEG-1/-2/-4 (incl. DivX), WMV9, AAC, MP3, WMA and Ogg Vorbis.
A wired and wireless UPnP streaming media player. Supports decoding Ogg Vorbis as of the 1.03 firmware.
The Hifidelio is a music server in hi-fi format and designed to produce high-quality sound. It uses a CD/DVD combo drive and can thus rip Audio-CDs and read from DVD-Rs, and is also able to burn CDs. It has an in-built 4-port ethernet switch, a WLAN interface, can connect to the iPod and other portable players through USB 2.0. It can connect to other Hifidelios through the UPnP/AV standard and to iTunes shares (iTunes shopping is a future feature). The songs are stored on the 80 GB harddisk. Supported formats for decoding are: MP3, Ogg Vorbis, AAC, WMA, FLAC, WAV. The Hifidelio Pro has a 160 GB hdd and some other advanced features.
This piece of hardware is a DVD player and a HDTV streaming client. It supports MPEG-2, DivX, XviD and WMV9 (WMV HD), as audio tracks PCM, AC3, MP3, AAC, WMA and Ogg Vorbis. It can use ethernet, WLAN and USB 2.0 to connect to media. It is available in Japan from September.
The new line of networked hi-fi components are supposed to decode Ogg Vorbis over the Ethernet port: the A/V receiver VRS-N8100 and the DVD player DVF-N7080.
Except for one older model (the DP-330) all DVD/DivX players from Kiss can play Ogg Vorbis files from CD-Rs and CD-RWs (but reportedly have trouble with UTF-8 comments that aren’t also ASCII), as well as DivX (but not DivX Vorbis).
There are reportedly problems with some versions of the firmware (2.6.6 ≤ x < 2.7.1), where playback is awful for a bitrates greater than 128Kb/s.
These are media servers with up to 500 GB storage. They can be controlled via PDA and support MP3, WAV, WMA, Ogg Vorbis and FLAC. They can also connect to the local network via ethernet.
The Xbox is a gaming console based on PC hardware, including a 733 MHz processor, 8 GB harddisk, a DVD drive and an Ethernet port. The console can be modded to allow the installation of third-party software, such as the Xbox Media Center project. Once installed the Xbox becomes a media center and streaming client. It supports vast amounts of audio, video and picture standards, including Ogg Vorbis and FLAC.
The V880N is a disc player and streaming client. It supports DVD, VCD/SVCD, Audio CD, Picture CD, MP3, JPEG, DivX, Xvid on discs and MOV, Ogg Vorbis, AAC, WMA, AC3 and internet radio over ethernet. In addition to the usual TV connection it supports digital video (DVI) and audio (coaxial/optical) output in HDTV. It has a LAN interface and a PC card slot for a WLAN card.
The MPST Digital Jukebox is a Linux PC designed for audio playback and sold as a stereo component, which of course can play Vorbis.
The iPlayer is primarily a DVB-T receiver, which includes an in-built modem and can also use a small range of USB ethernet adaptors to connect to a network. Supported media formats include MPEG and MPEG2, MP2 and MP3 and, in the latest release, Ogg Vorbis. Technical limitations in the USB controller limit the practical bandwidth of media to around 4 megabits/second. Perhaps the reason for the rather limited range of media formats supported is that the iPlayer is based on low-cost hardware - in the UK Netgem's own branded iPlayer usually retails for around £90. Netgem also host a forum. In addition to the Netgem branded iPlayer in the UK, branded devices are available from other manufacturers such as Teac (the ITV-D500, for the Australian market). With the imminent launch of DTT in France, Netgem is also expected to launch a model there.
This is a standalone DVD player that supports Vorbis.
This device, manufactured by Nokia, Philips and Sagem until 2002 in huge numbers for the German Pay-TV provider Premiere, is a DVB-C or DVB-S receiver. It features a 10Mbit Ethernet interface and a nifty graphics display. The original software on this device was always a bit flakey. The alternate Linux-based Tuxbox project includes an audio player that perfectly plays Ogg Vorbis files from a NFS or CIFS share. Streaming is in beta state.
The Home Digital Media Player uses the same cartridges as the PhatBox, and supports Ogg Vorbis out of the box.
The website stupidly doesn't mention Ogg Vorbis support, but it is there, along with MP3. The MS300 is a music server that runs Linux and comes with 80 or whopping 300 GB of storage. It has an ethernet port that lets other desktops access the music via Samba, and supports hardware streaming clients that use the Slimserver protocol (Slimdevices, Roku). The USB port and the memory card slot can be used to read in music from portable players and photos from digital cameras. Pictures can be viewed via SCART on the TV. The MS330 is similar to the MS300, but can also burn CDs from the CD drive, has a 6-in-1 memory card slot and supports MP3, Ogg Vorbis and FLAC.
Roku's streaming audio clients support the Slimserver from Slimdevice's products (for details see below).
  • SkipJam's iMedia Audio Player, iMedia Audio Player Pro
The iMedia Audio Player is a streaming client with two Ethernet ports and supports MP3, WAV, PCM, WMA, AAC, AC3 FLAC, and Ogg Vorbis directly. Through PC-Server software it also plays M4A and M4P. It has two digital (optical/coaxial) and one analog output. The pro version can stream the same formats through ethernet or through built-in Homeplug power line networking, and has a built-in 30W/Chan digital amp. The pro unit is designed for installation in-wall in a 6-gang junction box.
The Squeezebox is a streaming receiver, that uses LAN or WLAN to stream audio. It supports decoding of MP3 and raw PCM. The server software is open source and available for a number of platforms (Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, FreeBSD) and decodes other formats, like Ogg Vorbis and FLAC, on the fly to PCM before streaming. The Squeezebox2 uses the same server software, but can decode FLAC natively, which lowers network traffic for other formats than MP3 considerably.
  • Sonos' Multi Zone Digital Music System
Sonos is a complete music system for a house that consists of speakers that are connected wirelessly to a media server. The system also supports Ogg Vorbis and FLAC.
The Medio Digital Media Player transforms the Playstation2 into a streaming client, supporting various audio and video formats, including Ogg Vorbis.

Among other connectors it supports the new HDMI standard.

Car Audio

The Music Keg uses the same system as the PhatBox below, which means Ogg Vorbis support is available.
The PhatBox is a audio entertainment system for the car. It uses a cartridge to store the music, and it can be filled with music through a docking station for the PC. As of version 3.1 of the desktop software (Phatnoise Music Manager), ogg vorbis is supported out of the box.
