Sounds like a good idea - - if Browse.xo gets served a speex file with the right mimetype, does it do the right thing? - do browsers in other desktop/laptop platforms (conventional linux, Windows, OSX) do the right thing? > Ideally we could use the 1500+ hours of Human Read audiobook that Librivox > has produced and stored on archive.org in some of our deployments. Great project -- didn't know it existed. Tried it with Alice in Wonderland, in part to see what my ubuntu laptop would do with the speex files, but it lists mp3 and ogg only...? Is speex a codec that gets wraped in ogg? cheers, m -- [email protected] [email protected] -- School Server Architect - ask interesting questions - don't get distracted with shiny stuff - working code first - http://wiki.laptop.org/go/User:Martinlanghoff _______________________________________________ Library mailing list [email protected] http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/library
