I wasn't sure I read this right. There are claims about OGG not being adopted by car radio manufactures etc because of a lack of a standard in decoding algos.
http://ilx.wh3rd.net/thread.php?msgid=3218698 is this bull dust? I'd like to know if there are larger manufactures that make OGG compatible car stereos. Like Kenwood, Sony, Panasonic, Philips, Blaupunkt, Pioneer etc... I want to support OGG. This post has been edited by SHADES: Aug 24 2006, 04:37 |

They could be afraid that supporting OGG may require open source code, which could lead to a host of problems when included in proprietary firmware. Not that this is actually the case, but it may be what they fear. It happened to Linksys - they were forced to reveal the sourcecode for the firmware of one of their routers because of some GPL licensing conflict. They haven't repeated that with later models. Just offering a possible reason -------------------- EAC>1)fb2k>LAME3.99 -V 0 --vbr-new>WMP12 2)MAC-Extra High

Even worst: why are they so code "possessive" ? They manufacture hardware, not software !  In my opinion open source firmwares could spread the compatibility of *every* hardware !  I'm tempted to launch a "firmware & drivers liberation campign"...
