#9616: MediaConverter doesn't convert to OGG or MP3 and converts to WAV with video ------------------------------------+---------------------------- Reporter: Kev | Owner: nobody Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: R1/alpha5 Component: Audio & Video/Codecs | Version: R1/Development Resolution: | Keywords: Blocked By: | Blocking: 10722 Has a Patch: 0 | Platform: All ------------------------------------+---------------------------- Changes (by ttcoder): * owner: stippi => nobody * type: bug => enhancement * component: Applications/MediaConverter => Audio & Video/Codecs Comment: With the crash fixed, this probably becomes an enhancement ticket.. Update on my side: Upgraded to 48061 and indeed PCM, Vorbis ..etc are gone, and flac works as you describe Adrien. ffmpeg: is the bug specific to Haiku (i.e. it fails to encode because it's compiled with our old gcc2) ? Or maybe it's a general bug in ffmpeg, but in that case we could file a ticket with them, telling them it's very good at decoding but fails to encode on all platforms, including Haiku ? I guess I like the idea of getting a half dozen encoders 'for free' in the Media Kit :-) but I'm confused about what the situation is with ffmpeg/encoders in Haiku exactly. libvorbis: in case ffmpeg is really a non-starter and we have to create encoders separate from it, a Vorbis encoder would be my favorite as closest to mp3 compression probably.. I did ''a bit'' of work on haiku ''De''coders some years back, I guess doing an ''En''coder might be in my reach.. And if my work is good enough to submit back to trunk that'd be a way for me to give something back to the haiku project.. If you confirm this is the way to go I'll try it out and create a separate ticket (to not spam Kev) to report progress if any. -- Ticket URL: <https://dev.haiku-os.org/ticket/9616#comment:8> Haiku <https://dev.haiku-os.org> Haiku - the operating system.
