I was recently perusing the Ambisonics 2010 Symposium web site and came across the pages devoted to a streaming concert. The audio (4th order Ambisonics) is available as a downloadable Ogg Vorbis file:
http://ambisonics.iem.at/xchange/ambisonicssymposium_stream/concert-ambisonics-recording-ogg/at_download/file I downloaded the file and then spent most of the night trying to play it. I downloaded more than a dozen Ogg players and converters and almost all of them choked on the stream. I did find two ways to decode the file, one of them being the latest version of Audacity and the other being an add-in filter file for Cool Edit. Both of these agree that the file has nine channels, but 6 of them are empty. Not a satisfactory experience! Either the decoders are broken or the file is. Have any of you been able to successfully decode this file?
