Hi there,
I noticed an odd behavior with ogg vorbis files and vorbis sound muxed
into video files such as OGM and matroska.

If I try to play an ogg file, here's what MPlayer tells me

Playing /home/guillaume/media/rip/DIRTY_HARRY/audio/son.ogg.
[Ogg] stream 0: audio (Vorbis), -aid 0
Ogg file format detected.
==========================================================================
Cannot find codec for audio format 0x73627276.
Read DOCS/HTML/en/codecs.html!
==========================================================================
Audio: no sound
Video: no video

but if in codecs.conf I change the line

fourcc vrbs
into:
format 0x73627276

then everything plays now fine again. I attached a patch against
codecs.conf that fixed the problem for me, but somehow I'm guessing the
problem is somewhere else...

Any hints?

Regards,

Guillaume

PS: I was tempted, at first, to fill a bug report, but I had so much fun
trying to narrow down the problem and reading docs that I'm glad I
didn't do it! ;-P
