Oggenc2 is an enhanced version of oggenc developed by John33. Features compression from lossless files (Monkeys Audio, LPAC, FLAC, OptimFROG, WavPack and Shorten - requires presence of decoders), and the ability to specify 'padding' in the headers for subsequent insertion of Tags.

Supported systems:

  • Windows
  • Posix


Compatibility

Most of the time, Oggenc may be replaced by Oggenc2, as the latter recognizes the former's switches.

If the application that uses Oggenc is hard-coded to find "oggenc.exe" (or its equivalent in *nix), you can simply rename "oggenc2.exe" to "oggenc.exe" and overwrite the original "oggenc.exe".
