btw. is ogg-muxing (i'm talking about ogg-containers not vorbis audio) +
corrections to the ogg-playing(it has problems)  planned?

or you think that that ogg with video thing is too undocumented and
mplayer won't support it?

i personally quite like the idea of using vorbis audio and ogg seems
like a good choice... are there any know problems with that ogg-format?
i thinks it's called oggds or what ( maybe because they were dshow
filters)

thanks,
