Package: speex
Version: 1.1.6-2
Severity: wishlist

I think it's a pity that the only file format the Speex encoder can read
is Microsoft's WAV, when FLAC is out there.

Would it be possible for the speexenc command to have (at least
optional) support for FLAC and Ogg FLAC files?

Hi,

I doing some triage and preparing a new upload for speex.
Looking at this report, it is currently marked 'fixed-upstream',
which is a bit misleading, because upstream has stated that speex
should not have extra dependencies to support encapsulation formats.

That seems like the correct decision to me, speex is a codec, what
you wrap it in is up to the implementation.  RIFF audio is as free
a format as the others you list, and if you could decode Ogg in half
a dozen lines of trivial code as well, perhaps it would have been
chosen for the trivial example instead.  It seems totally appropriate
to expect more sophisticated transcoding to be done by higher level
applications.

That all happened over a year ago now, and there has been no further
discussion on this, so I'm closing this report too now in line with
the upstream resolution.

Sorry,
Ron
