Yep. I would like to release the 'product' before releasing the code,
especially since it is not finished. I hope to get a real release soon. The
current version has some issues in the importer. The decompressor seems
okay. Not to rag on Apple, but their documentation on components isn't up to
par, making it difficult.

To be honest, I never ran into any QT limitations. I can foresee one where
it will be difficult to skip ahead in the Ogg due to the chaining factor,
but that is minor, and can be worked...

Of course one of my problems is incorrect sample count, so the file is
misinterpreted... Sometimes it doesn't play entirely. I didn't even try
adding this code yet, and this may be where I get hung up.

> Does it use the latest release of the Vorbis lib ?

Yep.

Soon soon!

PS. I released a new Ogg Drop for Mac today: http://www.nouturn.com/oggdrop/
