Hey Philipp. As I understand it, it's not a technical problem (the code has already been written and works), but a moral one. They don't want to ship it by default, like the mp3, because it is covered by patents. Nevertheless, not everyone lives in a locality where software patents have any validity, and thus at least they should have a choice.
It will be nice if we one day have multichannel hardware vorbis decoders in our home theatre systems so we don't have to be stuck with AAC/AC3/DTS. -- Include a libasound2-plugins-extra package for a52, jack, maemo https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/197957 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
