Hi,
I tried a video with vorbis audio and it required transcoding. I’ve been looking around and some people claim that the raspberry pi can decode vorbis in hardware. Is that true?
Is there anything I have to do to enable direct play of vorbis?
Thanks!
RPi should be able to do Ogg Vorbis and VP6/VP8/Theora, but only accelerated in the VideoCore, will check with our resident coding gurus if this is possible for RasPlex.
Ogg Vorbis audio files direct play on RPi2 in 1.0.0.
Can you post a sample of the video file with OV audio?
Regards
Add these to your .plexht/userdata directory as advancedsettings.xml and reboot
<advancedsettings>
<codecs>
<video>theora</video>
<video>vp8</video>
<video>vp6f</video>
<video>vp6</video>
<audio>vorbis</audio>
</codecs>
</advancedsettings>
Works for theora to 720p, couldn’t get 1080p to work for RPi1, VP6 and VP8 I only had low res samples.
Give it a go. Oh, and rename .ogg to .webm if PMS won’t recognise the files.
I’ll check the video/audio combination (I am not at home right now). But I am pretty sure it was h264 with vorbis audio on an mkv container.
I’ll try your suggestions, thanks.
Can you post a link to a 60 second sample?
Regards
Hopefully this will work (first time doing samples)

well, this is embarrassing…
The settings did work, and vorbis is now using direct play.
But! the sample I provided has 10 bit video… so transcoding is needed anyway
Thanks for the help!
EDIT: confirmed with another video, direct play works!
