I need a preview support for ogg, then i thought why bother you all the time for support for this and that. I am quite ignorant about the topic i am going to ask.
Is it possible that i get all kinds of dlls for playing music, videos viewing images etc etc etc and put it in one folder, something similar to "new items" folder and XY refers to the dlls in this before previewing anything. too crazy or??

I thought you have the K-Lite Codec Pack?! Ogg is part of it. I can preview it with XY.
Relax about the dlls.
And to all of you dreamers
Whatever you are dreaming of:
the next thing I do is CKS! plus some cool enhancements of the Move/Copy/Backup To dialog concerning the sources
and the targets of the operations. This is
heavy stuff, so you can take a little holiday and dry your daily-BETA-sweat!

Quoting the history:
Code: Select all
v3.60.0004 - 23.08.04 15:42
+ Preview: added Ogg Vorbis Audio (OGG) files to preview.
Ogg Vorbis (http://www.vorbis.com/) is an up-and-coming audio codec.
It provides better sound quality than mp3s, with a smaller file size,
and is completely patent-free and open-source.
More infos: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vorbis
Testfiles: http://www.xiph.org/ogg/vorbis/listen.html
NOTE: To preview Ogg Vorbis format, Ogg DirectShow filters must be
installed! Download the Ogg DirectShow filters [current version
0.9.9.5] from Tobias at http://tobias.everwicked.com/oggds.htm and run
OggDS0995.exe (can be uninstalled via Control Panel).
Alternatively, Ogg DirectShow filters are included in
KLite Codec-Pack 2.27 Full, downloadable from
http://www.free-codecs.com/download/K_Lite_Codec_Pack.htm
