List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: Hi Carry. I think that mp3s are a good way to go. Wouldn't you prefer to = try to sample the audio at 44100 khz? The only problem with that is that = you might get some tape hiss or noise depending on the playing device = you are using and the age of the tape (s). Again, you don't have to = re-record the samples, but that's just my opinion on quality. Hope this = helps.=20 ----- Original Message -----=20 From: Kerry Hoath To: Sent: Sunday, February 24, 2002 1:20 AM Subject: oggenc weirdness > Since we're all talking about anything and everything at the moment, = here's > one for the list to think on: > I am currently sampling some 4-track material I own to keep it > safe in case the tapes age or snap. > I get the wav files as I want them; (I can summarize to the list if > anyone cares with the scripts I wrote yesterday to make it all work) > and these aren't Jim's scripts, I wrote these ones with comments to = aid > in maintainance. > I have a .wav file 22050 samples per second 16-bit little endian mono. > I try to oggenc this file with the following command: > oggenc -b32 side01.wav > and get a message that "mode initialization failed" > This used to work fine in 1.0rc2 but appears to have broken in 1.0rc3 > Anyone else running 1.0rc3 and seen this behaviour? > If I don't specify -b32 I get an encoded file which averages 51kb/s = which is far too > much bandwidth to waste on this stuff.
