hey,
Is it possible to use Oggdec to playback ogg vorbis files, instead of decoding it to wave? What commands would you use to accomplish this?

Sure, it's possible, but why? Is there something wrong with ogg123?

oggdec filename.ogg -o - | sox - -r !soundcard sample rate! - resample > /dev/audio
(or something to that effect) should produce something reasonable.

If you use my version of oggdec, available at the sites below, yes. The 'official' oggdec does not support playback.
The command line would be:
CODE
oggdec -p 10.ogg
There are other options you can use too.
CODE
OGGDEC.EXE - Copyright (c) 2002 John Edwards
Usage: oggdec [options] input.ogg [...]
OPTIONS
-h, --help Prints this help information.
-a, --album Use ReplayGain Album/Audiophile gain settings, OR
-r, --radio Use ReplayGain Track/Radio gain settings.
-d, --dither X Dither output, where X =.
0 for dither OFF (default).
1 for dither without Noise Shaping.
2 for dither with Light Noise Shaping.
3 for dither with Medium Noise Shaping.
4 for dither with Heavy Noise Shaping.
-p, --play Plays ogg files thru the soundcard using Windows audio, OR
-s, --shuffle Shuffles and then plays ogg files using Windows audio.
-o, --stdout Writes output to stdout in 16 bit ONLY. The format
options are ignored with this option.
PLAYBACK PRIORITY OPTIONS (ONE option ONLY may be used)
-c, --class X Set playback priority class, where X =
0 for NORMAL priority.
1 for HIGH priority (default).
2 for REALTIME priority.
FORMAT OPTIONS (ONE option ONLY may be used)
-b, --bits X Set output sample format, where X =
1 for Unsigned 8 bit PCM data.
2 for 16 bit PCM data (default).
3 for 24 bit PCM data.
4 for 32 bit PCM data.
5 for 32 bit floats.
INPUT FILES
OggDec input files must be Ogg Vorbis I files with
a sample rate of 48000Hz, 44100Hz, 32000Hz, 24000Hz,
22050Hz, 16000Hz, 12000Hz, 11025Hz or 8000Hz.
Wildcards (?, *) can be used in the filename.

It seems he wants a WIndows solution.
Thank you for the feedback! I'll try some of those options.

I wouldn't mind using ogg123, but I don't have the knowledge or skill when it comes to compiling anything from the source code. If there was a precompiled version of ogg123, I'd be happy to use it

A Windows solution, eh?
In that case, my answer changes to 'No. Install WinAMP 2.81'.

Actually, the answer is "yes". It surely IS possible to use OggDec (John33's version) to playback Ogg files.
Actually, it's much better than Xiph's official oggdec, since it also supports dithering, replaygain, playback priority and even shuffle when you playback a list of files (or with wildcards)
AFAIK there is no Win32 ogg123, becuase it wouldn't compile.
Oggdec is the Win32 cmd.line oggdecoder and is part of the official vorbis-tools package. Though john33s version (or his enhanched version, since oggdec is originally his program) should be used.

Are there any plans to submit john33's oggdec version to the Xiph people?
The only problem will be the win32 dependency but maybe one could move the win32 playback to ogg123 and make the remaining code more platform independent

Also John33's OggdropXPd has an option to playback dropped files. I prefer Winamp however.
yes, I also prefer playback in winamp..but I have an old computer which only has DOS. It's a 486 100mhz with only 4MB of RAM. I was thinking of dedicating it just to playing ogg files. 650MB could still hold quite a few vorbis encoded CDs,
Thanks for the oggdec exe John33!

No, no plans at the moment, there was some interest shortly before the release of 1.0, but that evaporated with the release of their own somewhat 'featureless' version! (
) In reality, it wouldn't take all that much effort to make my oggdec platform independent (at least, as between windows and linux).Thanks for the interest, guys.
