Bugzilla – Bug 2843
Playback of OGG files results in digitial white noise
Last modified: 2008-09-15 14:38:10 UTC
Playback of ogg files seems broken in 2006-01-18 Nightly - I get digital white noise from both my SB2 and SoftSqueeze. MP3 and FLAC file seem to playback fine. Not checked in latest nightly build due to bug 2842
check convert.conf and the version of ogg. could be the -R param if all you are getting is noise.
can you attach d_source log output?

If I replace sox.exe with one from a backup from 2006-06-01 and OGG decoding works (changing nothing else). If I put back the sox.exe from the 2006-01-18 nightly & I get static. From my convert.conf #ogg wav * * # [oggdec] -Q -o - -R $FILE$ ogg aif * * [sox] -t ogg $FILE$ -t raw -r 44100 -c 2 -w -s $-x$ -
Problem seems to have magically fixed itself. Installed 2006-01-20 nightly to generate log for bug 2842. Went back to 2006-01-18 and now ogg playback works.
the sox binary was recently updated.

Remove $-x$ from convert.conf
Sorry, but removing $-x$ from convert.conf does not seem to fix it for me.
Using the new build on command line to convert an ogg file to wav seems to work. Problem might occur when piping to encoder of format decodable by SB. Steinar
I'm having the same problem with slimservers 6.5 debian build from debian.slimdevices.com. My system is a freshly installed sarge release.
This has been fixed with a new sox.exe build.
