Description Daniel Aleksandersen 2007-09-18 21:53:16 UTC

Version:           unknown (using KDE 3.5.7, Kubuntu (feisty) 4:3.5.7-0ubuntu1~feisty2)
Compiler:          Target: x86_64-linux-gnu
OS:                Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.20-15-generic

Hi,

With the release of FLAC 1.2.1 things have changed in Ogg FLAC encoded files. First of all they use the new file extension .oga and MIME type audio/ogg, as spesificed by the new technical recommendations from Xiph.Org Foundation. Refer to http://opensource-notebook.com/2007/09/ogg-mime-types/

However Amarok does not support playing these new .oga files. By changing the extension to .ogg you can play the files. But the metadata information (Vorbis comments) appears to be missing.

Comment 1 Daniel Aleksandersen 2007-09-18 21:56:10 UTC

Encode a test file using FLAC 1.2.1 or newer and
$ flac --ogg --tag="ARTIST=Should appear in artist column" input.wav

SVN commit 717998 by wheeler:

Note OGA as the new extension for Ogg FLAC.

(Note: for the bug report, this won't actually make things work in Amarok, in fact, this change
wasn't needed at all for it to work there.)

The full list of new MIME types and file extensions for Xiph.Org Foundation's multimedia file formats is available at http://wiki.xiph.org/index.php/MIME_Types_and_File_Extensions

Maybe you could add them all?

Comment 4 Scott Wheeler 2007-09-28 12:00:13 UTC

Well, uhm, most of the formats aren't supported by TagLib.
