John,
I began ripping all of my CD's into MP3's, then discovered the Ogg/Vorbis
and IMMEDIATELY moved to that format. Smaller, cleaner, better quality. And
YES!! there is support in TheUnnamedOne community for them.
When I'm stuck in TheUnnamedOne, I prefer WinAMP, and immediately found a
number of different o/v plug-ins. All of which worked wonderfully.
(http://www.winamp.com/plugins/browse.jhtml;$sessionid$1IBDOBQAAJCS1TN24UYBCZA)
And I just looked at M$ MediaPlayer, and of course The Gates of Hell has
excluded o/v. I'm sure 'someone' is working on a 'plug-in' for it, but as of
yes, no support.
Hope this helps John! Either way, I hope yer week is worth reliving!
