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)
    • RTP-containers for Vorbis, Theora, Speex
    • CMML - an XML-based markup language for time-continuous data (a timed text codec)
    • Ogg Writ - a text phrase codec (no longer maintained)
    • Ogg Squish - a lossless audio compression format and software (discontinued)
    • Tarkin - an experimental lossy video compression; no stable release (discontinued)
  • 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)
  • IceShare - an unfinished peercasting system for Ogg multimedia (no longer maintained)

Famous quotes containing the words foundation and/or projects:

    If all political power be derived only from Adam, and be to descend only to his successive heirs, by the ordinance of God and divine institution, this is a right antecedent and paramount to all government; and therefore the positive laws of men cannot determine that, which is itself the foundation of all law and government, and is to receive its rule only from the law of God and nature.
    John Locke (1632–1704)

    But look what we have built ... low-income projects that become worse centers of delinquency, vandalism and general social hopelessness than the slums they were supposed to replace.... Cultural centers that are unable to support a good bookstore. Civic centers that are avoided by everyone but bums.... Promenades that go from no place to nowhere and have no promenaders. Expressways that eviscerate great cities. This is not the rebuilding of cities. This is the sacking of cities.
    Jane Jacobs (b. 1916)
