XMMS through darwin ports works, and that is what I currently use. I've heard good things about VLC, too. While we're on the subject, I've done a little bit of research on the problem with quicktime. The qtcomponents project that worked before qt7 did things as a component, when they arguably should have made a codec from the start. Apple hadn't (and hasn't) solidified the API, and so things stopped working in Tiger and also with QT7 on Panther. I'm not sure, but if it had been done as a codec to begin with it might still be working. In any case it looks like doing it as a codec is the way to go at this stage. I think this will require basically taking Apple's AudioCodec example and wiring it up to libvorbisfile. I and at least one other person intend to do this "when I get time." If anyone out there is good with Apple codecs or good with libvorbisfile, help would be appreciated, and speed up the process.
