See <a href="release_notes.html">release notes</a> for more details.</p> 2007-09-02T19:49+00:00 Arek http://www.xiph.org/quicktime/index.html#id2007032200 <p>After nearly 11 months of no visible activity we're happy to announce a new release of the Xiph QuickTime Components!</p> <p>This release introduces the ability to produce Ogg files and encode video and audio content into Theora and Vorbis, respectively. Save directly to Ogg from iMovie or other QuickTime-based application!</p> <p>Other new features include support for 5.1 multichannel audio (Vorbis and FLAC) in Ogg files and progressive loading. The latter isn't fully finished and we are working on the remaining issue, but it makes opening large files less painful already. See <a href="release_notes.html">release notes</a> for the details.</p> <p>Installation has been simplified. XiphQT now comes in a single, statically-linked component bundle and doesn't require any additional frameworks, so you can simply drag'n'drop to install it. And there are two binary packages available: full and decoders-only.</p> <p>No Windows binaries are available at the moment, hopefully win32 port will be ready soon.</p> <p>Also: <a href="http://people.xiph.org/~arek/">here</a> you can find fairly up-to-date development snapshots and <a href="http://barelyfocused.net/blog/category/development/xiphqt/">here</a> you can find the XiphQT development blog.</p> 2007-03-22T23:59+00:00 Arek http://www.xiph.org/quicktime/index.html#id2006050800 <p>What's new in this release? Intel Mac compatibility (finally!), FLAC decoder, fresh (and still warm!) Theora decoder and a number of bug fixes and other smaller changes - see the <a href="release_notes.html">release notes</a> for details.</p> <p>As always, you can find it on the <a href="download.html">download</a> page.</p> 2006-05-08T23:59+00:00 Arek http://www.xiph.org/quicktime/index.html#id2005122000 <p>I've been thinking for some time that an RSS feed for XiphQT project would be nice. And I was asked about it recently, as well.</p> <p>So here it is, manually "generated" and highly experimental: <a href="news.xml" class="rss">XiphQT News feed</a>.</p> <p><a href="contact.html">Let me know</a> if there are any problems with it.</p> 2005-12-20T18:46+00:00 Arek http://www.xiph.org/quicktime/index.html#id2005121701 <p>I suppose it's just the right time of year to call it a "Christmas" release. And I hope the set of new features and improvements won't be dissapointing: Windows port, progressive downloading... just to name a few!</p> <p>So, don't let the minor release number change mislead you and <a href="download.html">get yourself a copy</a> straightaway, and don't forget to see the <a href="release_notes.html">release notes</a> for more info!</p> <p>And... Merry Christmas!</p> 2005-12-17T20:10+00:00 Arek http://www.xiph.org/quicktime/index.html#id2005121700 <p>I have created a small <acronym title="Frequently Asked Questions">FAQ</acronym>, which at the moment is focussing mainly on the "XiphQT vs. iTunes" subject. Read the <a href="faq.html">FAQ</a> for some explanations...</p> 2005-12-17T20:09+00:00 Arek http://www.xiph.org/quicktime/index.html#id2005112800 <p>Starting with this release there will be two different binary XiphQT packages available:</p> <ul> <li>full installer including Xiph framework files</li> <li>and smaller XiphQT-only package.</li> </ul> <p>See <a href="release_notes.html">release notes</a> for more info on other changes.</p> 2005-11-28T13:35+00:00 Arek http://www.xiph.org/quicktime/index.html#id2005112600 <p>Fixed a tiny oversight resulting in meta-data not being imported properly.</p> <p>Updated files are now <a href="download.html">available</a>.</p> 2005-11-26T10:45+00:00 Arek http://www.xiph.org/quicktime/index.html#id2005112501 <p>The first binary release is now <a href="download.html">available</a>. It's OSX-only, but a Windows version should follow soon.</p> <p>Summary of features included:</p> <ul> <li>reading of Ogg-encapsulated Vorbis and Speex bitstreams;</li> <li>Vorbis and Speex decompression.</li> </ul> <p>The details can be found in the <a href="release_notes.html">release notes</a>.</p> <p>Don't forget to <a href="bugreport.html">let us know if it doesn't work</a> for you.</p> <p>Enjoy!</p> 2005-11-25T19:35+00:00 Arek http://www.xiph.org/quicktime/index.html#id2005112500 <p>We are pleased to announce the first public appearance of the Xiph QuickTime Components project!</p> <p>In short, the project is a continuation of the efforts to bring availability of the <a href="http://www.xiph.org/">Xiph.Org Foundation's free and open media formats</a> into the Mac OS X environment, and do it in a way consistent with the well-defined and established media manipulation frameworks existing in that environment.</p> <p>The previous efforts in that area, focused around the <a href="http://qtcomponents.sf.net/">qtcomponents.sf.net</a> project, have recently come to a stop. With the new project: new blood, new underlying technology, new enthusiasm and using the experiences of the old project we hope to push things forward again.</p> <p>Please see the <a href="about.html">"about" page</a> for more information on our project, and thanks for stopping by!</p> 2005-11-25T19:34+00:00 Arek
