The VideoLAN Forums

Hello

I've a AVI-file. VideoLAN shows only the video but can not play the sound.

GSpot tells me that the audio codec is ogg_vorbis_3_plus (0x6771) Ogg Vorbis.

I've searched the forum but find no answer to my problem.

What should I do to hear the sound.

Thank you for your help.

Could you please upload a sample to ftp://streams.videolan.org/incoming
We will see if we can support this then. I slighty fear we might not be able to, because this seems quite unstandard.

@The DJ

Because the file is quite large and the only file with the unstandard codec .. I will throw away the file.

we only need a very small part.

I also have experienced this... Have you found a way to play files that need this ogg_vorbis_3_plus (0x6771) Ogg Vorbis codec. Gspot tells me the same thing.

It's currently not yet possible with VLC. It would help if we knew which application created these files.

Thanx for responding -

I'm not sure what prog made the file, as it was downloaded from the net. I'll just delete the file..... Too bad 'cause the movie looked really really GREAT... But this is just like the only file that hasn't worked with VLC - Awesome program and thanx for all your hard work!

the files were probably created with virtualdub(mod). i used virtualdubmod to make a small sample. gspot says "ogg_vorbis_3_plus (0x6771) Ogg Vorbis", vlc doesn't play it. other players use a filter called "acm wrapper".
i never came across that before and i guess it is pretty unusual and not recommended since it may cause synch issues, at least that is what i read.

i put the sample in the /incoming/ folder mentioned in this thread (vorbis3plus_sample.avi)

ps. i just realized that this is an ogg stream in an avi-file, maybe that's the purpose, just a guess
