MOGG file support

As Audition is the only open source software (I know) that can read a MOGG file, I was browsing though the code to understand its file format. However I could not find any handling for this file type in the sources. Can anybody give me a hint which source file does the MOGG file header handling and stream extraction?
Thanks in advance,

Chris

Mogg files are a variation of the OGG format.
Audacity can open “some” Mogg files using the OGG decoder. The OGG format is specified by xiph.org (https://xiph.org/ogg/)
I’m not aware of any official specification for Mogg files, sometimes they are standard OGG files with just the file extension changed - sometimes not. There’s no guarantee that Audacity will open a Mogg file, it all depends what the file really is.

I have analysed the MOGGs I have, these are not just renamed OGGs, but have special MOGG file headers before 1 - n regular OGG streams follow. No other (OGG aware) player can read these files - but Audacity can! So there must be some “magic” in the Audition source code, that I didn’t find so far. Or does it use any “special” OGG Lib?

Thanx,
Chris

Audacity will use libogg (from http://www.xiph.org/) if it identifies the file as an OGG file, otherwise it will try to import with FFmpeg if FFmpeg is installed.

Yes, you’re right. After a lot of experimenting and code analysis I agree that libogg / libvorbis do a perfect job. I wonder that so few other software, that include libvorbis, can deal with MOGG…
