Running macOS 10.14.5 currently. I have some .ogg files that I wan't converted to .wav files but it says it is unsupported. Is there any way to use XLD for this?
Three years later, same issue. I guess this is the end of the road for XLD, because if I have to find another converter, I'm going to find one that works for everything I need, I'm not keeping multiple converter apps around and trying to remember what can handle what formats.
I'd much rather see this fixed, though.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
Thanks for the plugin, tmkk, much appreciated.
I just can't get it to work... I downloaded XLDVorbisDecoder-20220226.zip and put it in ~/Library/Application Support/XLD/Plugins
But i get the error "Cannot open the input file." when i drag an .ogg file onto XLD.
I'm on macOS Monterrey 12.3.1, MacBook Pro (14-inch, 2021) M1
I realized that i still had Build #3 from this ticket installed on my computer, which is an Intel only build (not universal): https://sourceforge.net/p/xld/tickets/546/
I tried both now: Starting XLD with or without using Rosetta with your latest normal build ( xld-20211018.dmg )
You're right, the XLDAacDecoder only works if Rosetta is activated and not on M1 native.
The same goes for the OGG encoder, which only works via Rosetta.
I tested the whole time with one ogg-file which is the format Telegram saves voice messages.
Somehow XLD can't convert that an throws the error. I now realized that it works fine on all other OGG files that i tested it with (but with Rosetta activated).
So i guess the problem is a special ogg-encoding that Telegram uses...
Opening the files in a text editor the headers looked different to the OGG files that XLD could convert:

I'll send you an ogg-file from Telegram as attachment to test :)
But great that it works for other OGG files — thanks so much for you work !

I've uploaded a vorbis decoder plugin to the Files section.
Thanks for the plugin, tmkk, much appreciated.

You have to extract .zip and put extracted .bundle file to the directory.
Yes, i did that, but it results in the error that i posted. The other two plugins that i have in that folder work as expected :)

Strange. Maybe some errors are displayed in Console.app when running XLD or openning .ogg file.
XLDAacDecoder.bundle in your screenshot doesn't support M1 Macs. So it's also strange that it works.

The plugin does not support opus (it usually has extension .opus, not .ogg). It only decodes Ogg Vorbis. So it is an expected behavior.
Ah, i see, strange that Telegram saves them wit the .ogg extension.
Sorry for the false alert then, and thanks for taking the time to have a look.
any upgrade for M1?
The plugin is available at https://sourceforge.net/projects/xld/files/XLDVorbisDecoder-20230212.zip
I put XLDVorbisDecoder.bundle in the Plugins folder but nothing happens... dummy me!
