OGG not supported by CUE Sheet?

Hello there,

I made a OGG convertion from an audiobook, I want to have chapters without re-encoding. I found about the cue format and started making some progress, but now after some trials I realize foobar2000 is not allowing me to play the cue because it's expecting WAVE, MP3, or AIFF.

Code: [Select]
Error parsing cuesheet: expected WAVE, MP3 or AIFF, got : "OGG"


Here's what I did:
Code: [Select]
TITLE "Content Rules" 
PERFORMER "Ann Handley CC Chapman"
FILE "ContentRulesUnabridged.ogg" OGG
TRACK 00 AUDIO
TITLE "Intro"
INDEX 01 00:00:00
TRACK 01 AUDIO
TITLE "Chapter 01"
INDEX 01 00:14:09
TRACK 02 AUDIO
TITLE "Chapter 02"
INDEX 01 00:30:33


Can anyone confirm on this, what other options do I have?

Have you verified that your Ogg file plays?

Ogg+Cue works here. Are you sure the Ogg is seekable, and has enough length to cover the entire length of the album?

I'm not sure what do you mean by seekable, below the audio properties:

Duration : 6:54:04.700 (1 095 651 270 samples)
Sample rate : 44100 Hz
Channels : 2
Bitrate : 162 kbps
Codec : Vorbis
Encoding : lossy
Tool : Xiph.Org libVorbis I 20050304
<BITRATE_NOMINAL> : 160

I replaced OGG with WAVE (at line 3), and fb2k now writes:

Code: [Select]
could not enumerate tracks (Error parsing cuesheet: invalid track number (line 4))


Track number cannot be equal to 0.

lvqcl is correct. If you wanted that “Intro” not to play unless you rewind into it from the nominal beginning of TRACK 01, change it from TRACK 00 to the INDEX 00 of TRACK 01.

"AIFF", "WAVE", or "MP3" are the only "valid" values for the FILE format in a cue sheet. I use scare quotes on "valid" because cue sheets are not really standardized. There's the original, basic cue sheet format required by the two programs that cue sheets were designed for (CDRDAO and CDRWIN, for DOS and Windows, respectively). Every other cue-sheet-using program, foobar2000 included, supports slight variations to that format, sometimes bending the rules to support things like Unicode, file-per-track rips with gaps appended, additional metadata embedded in comments, and using "WAVE" with non-.wav files like .flac and .ogg.

Aside from changing "OGG" to "WAVE", you need to make sure tracks are sequentially numbered (no duplicates).

Assuming you want to keep the track numbers the same as the chapter numbers:

Code: [Select]
TITLE "Content Rules" 
PERFORMER "Ann Handley CC Chapman"
FILE "ContentRulesUnabridged.ogg" WAVE
TRACK 01 AUDIO
TITLE "Intro (rewind to hear) + Chapter 01"
INDEX 00 00:00:00
INDEX 01 00:14:09
TRACK 02 AUDIO
TITLE "Chapter 02"
INDEX 01 00:30:33


or

Code: [Select]
TITLE "Content Rules" 
PERFORMER "Ann Handley CC Chapman"
FILE "ContentRulesUnabridged.ogg" WAVE
TRACK 01 AUDIO
TITLE "Intro + Chapter 01"
INDEX 01 00:00:00
TRACK 02 AUDIO
TITLE "Chapter 02"
INDEX 01 00:30:33
