Other modules (eg, the modules vorbis, vorbis-tools and vorbis-plugins for the Vorbis codec) contain the codec libraries for use with Ogg bitstreams. Directory: ./src The source for libogg, an LGPLed inplementation of the public domain Ogg bitstream format ./include Library API headers and codebooks ./debian Rules/spec files for building Debian .deb packages ./doc Ogg specification documents ./win32 Win32 projects and build automation WHAT IS OGG?: Ogg project codecs use the Ogg bitstream format to arrange the raw, compressed bitstream into a more robust, useful form. For example, the Ogg bitstream makes seeking, time stamping and error recovery possible, as well as mixing several sepearate, concurrent media streams into a single physical bitstream. CONTACT: The Ogg homepage is located at 'http://www.xiph.org/ogg/'. Up to date technical documents, contact information, source code and pre-built utilities may be found there. BUILDING FROM CVS: A standard cvs build should consist of nothing more than: ./autogen.sh make and as root if desired : make install This will install the Ogg libraries (static and shared) into /usr/local/lib, includes into /usr/local/include and API manpages (once we write some) into /usr/local/man. BUILDING FROM TARBALL DISTRIBUTIONS: ./configure make and optionally (as root): make install BUILDING RPMS: RPMs may be built by: make dist rpm -ta libogg-.tar.gz BUILDING ON WIN32: Use the project file in the win32 directory. It should compile out of the box. You can also run one of the batch files from the commandline. E.g.: build_ogg_dynamic $Id: README,v 1.7 2000/11/08 08:41:14 jack Exp $
