There is an implementation of Vorbis decoder written in haXe and compiling to an SWF file playable in Flash 10 now available.

It's an initial release and it could use some more general testing and possibly hacking for even better performance.

Tor-Einar Jarnbjo's ActionScript 3 Vorbis decoder for Flash 10 is getting at least closer to haXe implementation.

The current version can be tested here:

I wonder if I can reiterate what was said in the blog by another member:

Any word on this?

That's because FP10 has got a much improved sound API. Read more here:

And also the Vector data type.

This is very exciting.
Is there a chance to get some howto for people non familiar with flash development? E.G. some javascript interface so we can just use this to play ogg files and streams at our websites?
Oh BTW can It play icecast2 vorbis streams?

@--pv-- Check OMTK, it can also play radio streams.

More exciting news from Adobe >>>Alchemy, hope someone can port not only vorbis decoder(why not FLAC,WavPack) directrily from C source.

EDIT: I just saw that there is already ported version of ogg vorbis library HERE , should be less CPU intensive than pure AS3 version , need testing

Thanks to this guy , who provided a nice package of classes for Alchemy Ogg Vorbis decoder. I build a simple flex app to test CPU usage and yep Alchemy is producing faster code than Haxe version.

Finally oggstreams can be played in Flash not sacrificing CPU time.

can this be done in silverlight?

I have been looking at adding a silverlight player to my website and vorbis is the main codec i use

Here is a Csharp decoder for Ogg Vorbis , so i suppose it can be used with Silverlight.
