There is one :)

It's handy for finding errors at the ogg level only... it doesn't know about 
whats going on inside the codec.

Unfortunately it's still part of my much larger package... so you'll have to 
do a pretty big checkout to get at it.

http://svn.xiph.org/trunk/oggdsf/

Check out there... then look in the macosx directory and there's xcode 
projects to build several of my ogg libraries and validation/dump/info 
command line tools. The macosx builds are only pretty new thanks to ozone 
(there's also unix make files of them too... and of course windows!)... but 
they all worked when we tested them a few days ago. BTW the check-out is 
like 30 Megs... hopefully you aren't on dialup.

If you have acess to a windows box... you can download them pre-built for 
windows here... http://www.illiminable.com/ogg/ They are in the installation 
directory (OOOggValidate, OOOggDump etc etc)... At some point i'll try to 
get some pre-built mac versions available... just a little busy right now 
(and i have no macs... so i'll have to get someone else to do it)

Alternatively... if you email me off the list, we can organise a way for you 
to get the file to me if you wish... either you can upload it somewhere and 
send me a link, or we'll work something else out.

Cheers,

Zen.
