Hi!

I am happy to announce mogg release 0.4.

mogg integrates a patched-up version of the integer-arithmetic ogg
vorbis decoder plugin into the "maemo" multimedia framework.

This release is the first with support for the N8x0 with IT OS 2008
(Chinook).

Comparison to the other "Ogg Support" project:
Pros: tag support, radio stream support
Cons: no speex, no theora decoders

To give it a try, please go to:

http://maemo.org/downloads/product/OS2008/mogg/


Notes:

(1) If you had the other "ogg-support" package installed before, and
mogg cannot be installed, try removing "ogg-support" by hand first:

dpkg -r ogg-support

I saw that its post-removal clean-up script sometimes reports an error
without obvious reason, i.e. it helped to just try removing the package
a second time.

(2) Currently, some tags are not recognized by the Media Player, even
though they are correctly reported by the plugin. These include "album",
"track" and "genre". But at least "artist" and "title" are shown
correctly. Even when they change during playback of a radio stream.

(3) Yes, seeking in files works.

(4) This release is currently not available for IT OS 2007 (Bora) and IT
OS 2006 (Mistral) because it doesn't contain any improvements for these
platforms.

Have fun! Feedback appreciated!

Tilman
