Leg Posted January 30, 2006 Share Posted January 30, 2006 I have Mac at my work... it's PowerMac G4. There all the plugins for ogg playback in QuickTime and iTunes works great... But at home on PC it doesn't work. Where can I get intel codecs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wesley Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 There isn't an Intel compiled version of that ogg component for QT yet, AFAIK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capri91 Posted February 1, 2006 Share Posted February 1, 2006 There is Xiph QuickTime Components for Mac and Windows. (QuickTime 7 required) After installing XiphQT, you can use Xiph formats in any QuickTime-based application, e.g. playing or coverting Ogg Vorbis in iTunes. http://www.xiph.org/quicktime/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Velvet Nightmare Posted February 1, 2006 Share Posted February 1, 2006 Ogg Vorbis files whould be able to be decoded by VLC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wesley Posted February 1, 2006 Share Posted February 1, 2006 Ogg Vorbis files whould be able to be decoded by VLC. Decoded, yes, but the ogg component for QT allows you to put ogg files in iTunes playlist and even export to ogg in QT (I think). If someone would do a UniBin of that component it would be awesome.

Leg Posted February 9, 2006 Author Share Posted February 9, 2006 Those components doesn't work... What about VLC - great player with support for many video-audio formats. But I tried to configure it and now it doesn't want to start... It's silently quit right after start... So it's configuration saved somewhere on my computer. How to uninstall it completely? And more one problem... Tag encoding in iTunes after grabbing/renaming. I have encoding problem with cyrillic names. Files named in cyrillic under Mac OS X can't be wieved (their names and tags in songs) under other OSes... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leg Posted February 10, 2006 Author Share Posted February 10, 2006 i have cleared settings for VLC. There was special script in its installation folder. Now everithing works great except the slow performance when trying to set movie size to double or fullscreen. I think it's because there are no drivers installed for my NVIDIA 6600GT and the PPC architecture of application... but i have more one question about iTunes. When inserting new audio cd it tryes to connect to CDDB. How to turn it off? I just want it showed me a song list! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capri91 Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 I've compiled and packaged XiphQT(Universal Binary) today. It works now. After installing XiphQT, you can use Xiph formats in any QuickTime-based application, e.g. playing or coverting Ogg Vorbis in iTunes. (QuickTime 7 required) Also you can play Ogg Vorbis with VLC. I've already compiled VLC_20050924_x86_bin.dmg last year. Including MPEG-1,2 video codec, AAC audio codec, DVD libraries... http://www.nextcube.org/files/tiger-x86/Xi...20060211_UB.dmg http://rapidshare.de/files/6116408/VLC_200...86_bin.rar.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

quixos Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 I've compiled and packaged XiphQT(Universal Binary) today. capri91, i am screaming with joy, quietly of course. well, actually listening to my precious oggs for the first time in osX in a civilised manner. this should be stickied and front page news, OR a new thread begun. if you don't do it i will, but with respect i'll wait a few days. best news since osX on intel, i'm barely exaggerating.

kikos Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 Is there a plug-in for VLC that gives it a better playlist viewer? I don't like the one it comes with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
velayo Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 Been looking for this for quite a long time, THANKS!!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Protoplasm Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 I don't know if anyone else trying the above component had trouble with tunes occasionally skipping but, if like me you did, it might be worth checking out the following: http://people.xiph.org/~arek/ To get it properly installed I had to remove the Xiph*.pkg files from /Library/Receipts before running the .mpkg file in the installer but I don't know if that was due to the way I tried to remove the old versions. Hopefully a full release will come sometime soon anyway! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sabr Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 Hmm, could I get that UB of Xiph anywhere else? The ones that Xiph have on their site don't seem to be working for me... Perhaps it's because I'm on 10.4.8? I could really do with .ogg support in iTunes... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
