Summary0001473: Switch to Libvorbis 1.1
DescriptionThe guys at hydrogen audio have made major strides in terms of improving OGG encoding functionality. Depending on the timing of the release, for version 2.3, I would suggest that we switch the encoder to OGG Megamix (unless OGG releases a new reference enocder that includes these changes) since the improvements are significant and it doesn't appear that xiph is planning an update any time soon.

See details at: http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/index.php?showtopic=22495&st=0&

I would rather distribute the original OGG and let users eventually download the modified version, but we can also think about including it directly in MM.

In general, I'm of the same opinion as you. In this case, though, the results are skewed so positively in favor of Megamix that I'd consider switching from the reference if Megamix has sufficiently stabilized.

Instead of switching to Megamix, we should just switch to the newly released 1.1 Vorbis libraries which include much of the tuning that has been done in the HA forums.

Included in build 797. This means:
 - ogg.dll and vorbis.dll included.
 - f_ogg.dll recompiled with the new libraries.
 - in_vorbis.dll recompiled with the new libraries.
