Xiph.Org Foundation Projects

  • Ogg - a multimedia container format, a reference implementation, and the native file and stream format for the Xiph.org multimedia codecs
    • Vorbis - a lossy audio compression format and software
    • Theora - a lossy video compression format and software
    • FLAC - a lossless audio compression format and software
    • Speex - a lossy speech encoding format and software
    • CELT - an ultra-low delay lossy audio compression format and software - merged into Opus, obsolete
    • Opus - a low delay lossy audio compression format intended for e.g. VoIP
    • Tremor - an integer-only implementation of the Vorbis audio decoder for embedded devices (software)
    • OggPCM - an encapsulation of PCM audio data inside the Ogg container format
    • OggUVS - an uncompressed video codec for Ogg (a work in progress and not a final proposal)
    • Skeleton - a structuring information for multitrack Ogg files (a logical bitstream within an Ogg stream)

  • libao, an audio-output library that operates on different platforms
  • OpenCodecs - a codec pack for Windows, by Xiph and the WebM Project
  • Annodex - an encapsulation format, which interleaves time-continuous data with CMML markup in a streamable manner
  • Icecast - an open source multi-platform streaming server (software)
  • Ices - a source client for broadcasting in Ogg Vorbis or MP3 format to an icecast2 server (software)

Famous quotes containing the words foundation and/or projects:

    The poet needs a ground in popular tradition on which he may work, and which, again, may restrain his art within the due temperance. It holds him to the people, supplies a foundation for his edifice; and, in furnishing so much work done to his hand, leaves him at leisure, and in full strength for the audacities of his imagination.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    One of the things that is most striking about the young generation is that they never talk about their own futures, there are no futures for this generation, not any of them and so naturally they never think of them. It is very striking, they do not live in the present they just live, as well as they can, and they do not plan. It is extraordinary that whole populations have no projects for a future, none at all.
    Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)
