Codec : DirectShow Filters for Ogg Vorbis, Speex, Theora


Installing this package you will be able to play Ogg Vorbis, Ogg Speex, Ogg Theora and Ogg FLAC with Media Player or any other DirectShow application like The Core Media Player, Foobar2000...

Known issues :

- Can't play file with names that use extended character sets (ie Japanese) under certani locales of windows (Thanks Liisachan)
- AVI Video files encoded with non-integral framerates (ie 29.97) may lose sync, due to rounding bug (Thanks RadicalEd)
- Make the installer properly detect if it's already installed. If you don't uninstall the old version you will get multiple identical file masks in WMP
- If you are getting codec problems, there appears to be a conflict with something in Media Player Classic... it tries to enforce the use of another ogg demultiplexer, either by design or accident.If you see in MPC it complaining about a media subtype with a GUID {CDDCA2D5-6D75-4F98-840E-737BEDD5C63B}. This is the guid of the old tobias vorbis filter, and this one {8D2FD10B-5841-4a6b-8905-588FEC1ADED9} is CoreVorbis. This is most likely due to the fact that these filters don't clean up the registry when they uninstall. I am working on something to "clean up" all these remnants from the registry (don't expect it too soon though... it's not that high priority). You can also apparently an option to disable the inbuilt demuxer (Thanks Bond)
- Cannot handle any chained multiplexed files or streams.
