Re: Fw: [Ipodlinux-devel] 2.4.24 rc1 binary release

SourceForge Headquarters 225 Broadway Suite 1600 San Diego, CA 92101 +1 (858) 422-6466

There is an ogg player in the user tools release on sourceforge.  Its not real
time though.  Probably it could do with some better buffer management but it
also maxes out the CPU.  I'd like to see the OGG support improve but given my
entire music colleciton is mp3 is not the highest priority for me.

WMA huh... I haven't looked into WMA much but there seems to be a decoder for
V1/V2 but not for the latest version of the codec (on x86 they seem to just
use the windows .dll, that aint going anywhere on the iPod).  The other likely
problem is that it uses floating point and so will be useless on the iPod.

cheers,
bern.
