Hi, Mainly to hw people, but would welcome any comments. Are there any plans for, or is there a way of playing .ogg files on a bn mpower? If they're encoded right, .ogg files can be a lot smaller than their mp3 or other counterparts, and ogg is a free codec (free speech and free beer). A lot of media players, hardware or software, can play ogg files, some can even encode them. And no, I don't want to have to run my ogg files through a converter just so that the bn's media player can decode them. I don't use my bn a ton these days (I'm more on my linux machine, and my bn needs a several thousand dollar braille display fix) but when I do get on it would be cool. Also I don't think it would be that hard to do, there are already ogg encoders and decoders for all kinds of devices, it shouldn't be too hard to find one that works (as I said before, ogg is a completely free, open codec).
What do you guies think, and could this be added to the mpower in the next upgrade? I only have one remaining and am probably not going to be getting another sma soon (see above).
