OGG and FLAC suppo

Is there going to be firmware at any point that will allow for flac and ogg files to be read by the Zen Micro?

zandrox,
get notmad. one of the features it has is to convert ogg and flac files one the fly. you can't play those file formats on your player, but at least you can still use them without having to convert before putting them on

  • MP3 and Flac player

    Hi,
    I am looking for a good audio player with the option to play MP3 and Flac files.
    I have tried FLAC player but its capability for organizing and editing  files according to composers and musical works is very limited.
    Any help will be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Amnon

    Flash: I use Adobe 64 bit when absolutely necessary, behind NoScript and FlashBlock (Firefox addons) and sandfox
    Audio Player: mplayer (with smplayer frontend), and also VLC
    File Archiving: Personally I use a chooser script from within my file manager for most archiving.  That way I can do it fast and can customize the script with any archive formats and options I want.  Likewise, I use an xtract script associated in my file manager so I can click on any archive and it is instantly extracted into a subfolder - no interaction.  Also, if you want 7-Zip support it's p7zip, although I think xz is a more linux friendly and capable implementation of lzma2.
    Audio Ripper: Asunder is pretty good, although I'm still shopping.
    Video Ripper: I use mplayer, usually through ripdvd
    ISO Burner: I wrote a custom script for burning  (which I haven't shared) that does it with CLI commands, which I found to be the easiest and most reliable method.  Graveman and Brasero are also decent.

  • How do I prevent itunes from moving my music from its original place ie folders in an external drive when I play music from itunes. I have all my music in artist folders and separated by MPG3/MPG4 and FLAC folder within the artist folder.

    How do I prevent itunes from moving my music from its original place ie folders in an external drive when I play music from itunes. I have all my music in artist folders and separated by MPG3/MPG4 and FLAC folders within the artist folder and itunes moves the track/s whenever i try and load selected music to my ipod/iphone. I've tried to find some sort of preference to prevent this, but no joy? What am I missing?

    Try opening iTunes preferences. Then click on advanced tab. Then uncheck "Copy files to iTunes media folder when adding to library." By default, iTunes copies music to its own media folder when you use iTunes to play the music.

  • Zen V Plus - Lossless WMA, FLAC suppo

    I just upgraded to the latest firmware. My 500+ CDs were ripped to lossless WMA and some FLAC. I was wondering if there is ever going to be support for lossless WMA and FLAC on this MP3 player and if someone from Creative could weigh in on this question.

    Lossless WMA and FLAC is not supported by Creative... As far as I see, but you can still convert these files by using the Creative Audio Converter or other softwares like that...

  • [solved] Problem with Amarok and flac-files

    When I installed Arch for the first time a couple of months ago, I was happy to find that some flac-files that didn't play in Amarok on my Debian installation was now played back perfectly. However, upon trying to play these files today, Amarok refuses to play them. I get an error stating that there is no suitable demux plugin for the files. Other flacs play back fine though, and the problem files play back perfectly in mplayer.
    Another thing I would be very happy to resolve is that I have a few files that use japanese in their tags. IIRC these displayed correctly in Amarok on my Debian install, but in Arch all I see is squares where there should be japanese, despite me installing both arphic-ukai and arphic-uming packages. What am I missing?
    All help appreciated!

    Your tip worked like a charm and the files now play perfectly in Amarok once again.
    I solved my second problem by installing the ttf-sazanami package from AUR and adding both sazanami gothic and sazanami mincho as substitute fonts for Sans Serif (my default font) in qtconfig (not sure that I really needed both though, but hey, it works now ).

  • I will be working on a project to migrate from Sybase ASE (15.7) to SQL Server 2014 using Oracle golden gate........I am trying to find documentation which can guide me to use a separate box installation of OGG and how to configure it for Sybase and SQL s

    Hi,
    I need guide to install OGG on a separate box which will help me to migrate Sybase to SQL server.
    Viral Dave

    hi - just an fyi
    we have SQL Server 2012 and from my reads and understanding OGG supports SQL Server up to 2008. not to say it wouldn't work on higher versions if installed. in the link above check out the SQL Server installation chapter. before purchasing the license I would contact Oracle.
    maybe someone here has installed it on a higher version and got it to work. we are currently working on setting up OGG to work on Oracle to Oracle servers.

  • OGG and firing triggers

    Hi,
    I am designing and implementing OGG to replicate a set of about 200 tables from a master system to two target systems. Updates to these tables only occur on the master system so this is a 1:n uni-directional situation. The master and target systems are all Oracle.
    Some or all of the target tables have triggers on them. For 95% of the tables, we don't want the triggers to fire when GG replicates to the table. This is easily accomplished by using the SUPPRESSTRIGGERS subparameter of the DBOPTIONS parameter in the replicat parameter file. So, I set up one extract/pump/replicat process to replicate the data to these tables.
    Of the remaining 5% of the tables, most of the time we want the triggers to fire on the target systems when data is replicated to the target table. Again this is easily accomplished by setting up another extract/pump/replicat process with DBOPTIONS NOSUPPRESSTRIGGER.
    There are a couple of tables on the target systems which have more than one trigger and we want one of the triggers to fire when replicating but not the other ones. I believe that I can partly accomplish this by putting a SQLEXEC on the MAP statement for these tables which issues an ALTER TRIGGER <schema.trigger>; DISABLE. The documentation says this SQLEXEC will run before the data is replicated to the target table so the trigger will be disabled when the replication happens.
    My problem is... How do I enable the trigger again once I have replicated data to the target table? I don't think it's possible to have a SQLEXEC run after the replication happens. Is that true?
    I have considered simply disabling the triggers when replication starts with a standalone SQLEXEC statement that runs when replication starts and enabling them using SQLEXEC ONEXIT to enable the triggers again when replication stops. this will work but I'm not sure my customer will buy this solution.
    Thanks a lot for any help you can provide.

    I've figured out how to do this. Start the replicat with DBOPTIONS SUPPRESSTRIGGERS specified. Then run a standalone SQLEXEC which executes the following stored procedure call for each trigger you want to have fire: dbms_ddl.set_trigger_firing_property(<trigger_owner> '<trigger_name>', FALSE);
    I have a set of eight triggers I want to fire so I created a simple stored procedure that executes this SP for each of my triggers. It could probably be done inline in the replicat parameter deck too.
    Also, I have a second SP which I call using SQLEXEC ON EXIT. This disables all the triggers I enabled at the beginning.
    Looking at ALL_TRIGGERS at the FIRE_ONCE column/property will tell you what state a trigger is in. Ironically, NO means the the trigger will fire and YES means it will not.

  • Ape and FLAC files slicing

  • ITunes and FLAC, SHN Files?

    Hello all, I was just wondering if anyone knows how to make iTunes support .FLAC files and/or SHN files? How come apple will not include these codecs?
    Hello apple! Please support .FLAC and .SHN in iTunes!!!
    Thanks!

    As long as you're only going to be using the files in iTunes or an iPod, there's nothing wrong with Apple Lossless, and it'll give you the same quality as AIFF in a smaller space.
    You can always convert to AIFF if you change your mind at any point.
    Have you heard iTunes' AAC encoder recently? I revisited it awhile ago, and was pleasantly surprised. Since then I've backed up all my Apple Lossless files onto DVD, and converted my iTunes library to 160 kbps VBR AAC. It gives a very passable quality in a much smaller file size.
    If you're intent on preserving the original sound of the CD though, Apple Lossless is definitely the way to go (on a Mac anyway).

  • Logic and FLAC

    I bought Logic Studio 8 two weeks ago(doh!), and I've been trying to learn it. I must say, it is quite logic(!) and very easy to use, despite the fact that it is also very advanced and you can do so much stuff in it. Well, anyway, today I was going to import a FLAC file, and I realised that you can't! Does anybody know the reason for this? FLAC is free to use, so I don't understand how Apple could lose money on supporting it. I checked iTunes store, and it isn't supported there either(that's okay for me though, as I'm more of a vinyl guy).
    And also: is FLAC supported in Logic 9? I can't wait to upgrade it!

    UnFLAC your file back to a regular, uncompressed audio file before using it in any DAW.
    Really, you shouldn't be using compressed files formats for performance reasons.

  • Codecs to enable iTunes to play .flac, .ape, and other format audio files?

    Does anyone know if there are, in the market or developing codecs to enable iTunes users, to play such type files as .flac and .ape? I have several files of this sort, but cant "awe" myself with the purity of lossless audio from either file types.. thus far, I have had to suffice with mp3 or mp4 type files..Anyone??

  • FLAC file

    I have just downloaded a concert in FLAC format. I was told to download FLAC frontend and then drag and drop the files into FLAC frontend inorder to convert them to WAV. However this does not work. Does anyone know how to convert FLAC files into something that I can play in iTunes.
    Thanks,
    James

    Regarding getting FLAC in to iTunes.
    A FLAC codec for iTunes for Mac and Windows is available here http://www.xiph.org/quicktime/ that can play OGG and FLAC compressed files. However it does not itself support the standard FLAC file format. This renders it significantly less useful.
    An additional plugin has been written and is available here http://barelyfocused.net/blog/2006/10/12/native-flac-in-itunesquicktime/ which claims to get round the file format issue thus allowing you to directly add 'real' FLAC files to iTunes. However this plugin is only available for iTunes for Mac.
    It is also worth looking at iTunesEncode.exe which can be used with dBpowerAMP or Foobar 2000 to convert FLAC to Apple Lossless (which can then of course be imported in to iTunes). Since both FLAC and Apple Lossless are lossless formats you will not loose any audio quality doing this.
    Apple Lossless can be played in iTunes (of course), WinAMP, dBpowerAMP, and even WMP 10!
    I too have seen rumours that the next QuickTime/iTunes will support FLAC but this is unlikely to mean it will be supported by iPods. Therefore ironically Apple Lossless still is the best supported lossless music format!
    Apple Lossless can be played by all the following :-
    Apple - iTunes, iPod, TV, iPhone
    Roku - SoundBridge
    Slim Devices - SlimServer, Squeezebox, Transporter, SoftSqueeze
    Sonos - ZonePlayer
    Foobar 2000 - Foobar 2000
    dBpowerAMP - dBpowerAMP
    WinAMP - WinAMP
    Microsoft - WMP 10, Media Center 2005, XBox 360 Media Extender
    and others (e.g. VLC, MPlayer, etc. etc.)
