RC3 Decoder - Where is it?

Is it just me? I can't find the RC3 decoder anywhere...

For Windows, there is no command line decoder.

If you really want one, you can compile decoder_example I think.

Why not? It seems like a natural thing.

There should be a --decode option in oggenc.

Seems very natural to me too.

I really want a Win32 Ogg console decoder! Who can make it?

It's not natural to have the _encoder_ _decode_

it would be nice to have an oggdec or something similar... I'd use it with oggifier.  Right now I use either cdex or dBpowerAMP to decode ogg samples; I can encode with oggdrop or use various front-ends for oggenc (oggifier, eac, cdex).
God kills a kitten every time you encode with CBR 320

Hi Garf,

I found decoder_example in the libvorbis source code. But it says:  "Takes a vorbis bitstream from stdin and writes raw stereo PCM to stdout.  Decodes simple and chained OggVorbis files from beginning to end.  Vorbisfile.a is somewhat more complex than the code below."

I suppose the decoded files will not be WAV files then?

I did compile the example decoder and it will take in an ogg file and write a wav, but without a wave header. I didn't look any further at the time. You get it to take in a file and write out a file by using the < and > for input and output, eg:

oggdec < sample.ogg > sample.wav

If people are interested, I'll look at it again. I didn't bother too much 'cos it's too easy to do it thru Winamp, either directly, or using the Winamp plugin thru CDex.

I would be interested because I could then make a decode button on the Oggifier frontend. But I suppose you would need some external code that writes wav headers. That won't be easy I think.

libsndfile, maybe?

Finding the wave writing routines there could be useful.

I still need an RC3 decoder for Win32. Does anyone have a RC2 decoder for Win32 they would be willing to share?

John33 is still working on decoding support for Oggdrop.
I believe he will have something beta soon.
