ogg content type? - 09/10/2003 06:00
So I wrote an app for the Karma to stream music off of it ... It works fine for MP3, but fails for OGG. Is it possible I have the wrong content type? Anyone see anything obviously wack about the header returned when requesting an ogg:
MP3: (works)
GET /streamFile?fid=4336
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Connection: close
Accept-Ranges: bytes
Content-Length: 4978688
Content-Type: audio/mpeg
Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=Track 4.mp3
...music data...
OGG: (does not work)
GET /streamFile?fid=6256
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Connection: close
Accept-Ranges: bytes
Content-Length: 4915296
Content-Type: application/ogg
Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=track 7.ogg
...music data...

Case sensitivity on the track name? Is the MIME type right: application/ogg?

application/ogg came from an RFC that I found on ogg ... I noticed that I didn't have a mapping in my registery for that type, though ... I set that up, but still no dice. Maybe I'll hunt around in winamp and see if I can figure out what mime type it expects. Has anyone streamed an ogg in winamp before?

Have't tried it here.
But I would expect application/x-ogg or application/x-vorbis to work.
Speaking of which, on the player, what is the tag type for an ogg? Is it "ogg", or "vorbis" (in the tag file). I want to add three lines to Hijack's webserver for them.

Oopps..
I meant to say: audio/x-ogg would be the most correct content-type (mime) for ogg files.

On the Karma, codec=vorbis . I could have sworn it used to be codec=ogg, but that's not true currently. I assume the Empeg is the same.

Cool -- I'll try these out and see which one is the most successful.
Incidentally, application/ogg may be technically correct, but it certainly SEEMS wrong to me... audio/ogg seems more appropriate. but oh well.

But the Ogg container could in theory contain a Theora video file rather than a Vorbis audio file. Only a, er,
application would be able to tell...

Yeah.
Note that application/ogg is brand spanking new, and probably not supported yet by many (most?) players out there. I think audio/x-ogg is probably the most common. The x- part means "use an external player rather than the built-in browser support, if any" (I think).
From grepping through the v3a3 player binary, it appears that vorbis is indeed the tag type on the Empeg as well.
