You are right, Ogg/Vorbis is really a great compressed audio format. All my new songs I compress in vorbis now; just an information apart. ;) Well.. If you say, you need vorbis support in fgfs, you have 2 possibilities: link them dynamicly at runtime or take the whole source and implement it into fgfs. The second solution would ensure that every user can use the FI and additionally everybody can use ogg/vorbis then. But this approach introduces the problem of keeping the ogg/vorbis libs up2date. I guess there is no need, because FGFS has no concept regarding security, so you don't have to care about latest security holes. But I believe the devs aren't amused about that idea to implement yet another codec fully into fgfs. Therefor I would like to throw the idea into the room to replace all the *.wav files with ogg/vorbis ones and make ogg/vorbis the default audioformat internal of FGFS.
