Problem with .ogg file in Winamp
View this Thread in Original format
CygnusX
I just downloaded 2 files from EMC :
arminvanbuuren_astateoftrance_top20_episode78_hour1.ogg
arminvanbuuren_astateoftrance_top20_episode78_hour2.ogg


arminvanbuuren_astateoftrance_top20_episode78_hour1.ogg works fine, but when I add arminvanbuuren_astateoftrance_top20_episode78_hour2.ogg to my playlist, WinAMP crashes ('Read titles on' is set to 'display'). Redownloading the file from another source didn't solve the problem. The person I got it from has no problems with it. I have WinAMP 2.81 with Nullsoft Vorbis Decoder v1.2.9.

Anyone got an idea how I can fix the .ogg file?


Note: Windows Media Player 6.4.09.1124 also plays the first file without problems, but if I play file 2, I only hear a 0.10 hiss and that's it (no crash, no music).

im pretty sure, winamp doesnt play ogg vorbis encoded files... i may be wrong... they probably have a plug-in for it though... they have a plug-in for EVERYTHING!!!

I got my plugin from http://ogg.benjamin-lebsanft.de/Download.htm. I think the problem is not the playback software, but the .ogg file. I'd like a tool that tests .ogg files and fixes them if they're corrupt.

winamp supports ogg files from version 2.80 (no additional plugins needed)

but you can simply convert the file(s) to mp3 and your problem will probably be gone:) - dbpoweramp (www.dbpoweramp.com) is a mighty converter (with all the additional codecs on board) so it could come in handy to you

Thank you! :D
I downloaded normal mp3z of that liveset and they play correctly, but I'll keep your solution in mind if it ever happens again.

cheers
