I am currently trying to work myself into linux video captering software, and trying to package it for debian. As you may or may not be aware, debian has a number of rules considering the possibility for inclusion of the software into the distribution (putting it very simple, non-free software is hard to get into debian). As a result of a discussion I had with a couple of debian-developers on the possible problem of the use of liblame in the software, I was wondering: What if the audio was to be encoded with ogg/vorbis instead of mp3. I guess that feasable to do so, but would players be able to decode this? I would want to know this before I start digging into the code. Ideally, I would see the following combination for OS/FS enthousiasts (while waiting for the vorbis video compression): xvid/ogg
That is OK for file-recorders, but not streaming. Both xvid and ogg are _extremely_ sensitive to stream errors...
