Sinse Og is I believe winamp's proprietory format, winamp is your best bet there.

Also, for personal preference Winamp is my favourite bog standard media player in windows, not the least because with a couple of plugins it can play some of the more exotic video game music formats.

About the only time I use other programs is windows media player or wripping cds and klango for podcast subscriptions, but certainly I find winamp best for everything else.

It works flawlessly with Hal, and I'd be most surprised if it didn't with jaws.

You can find The winamp homepage here

And, in case it'd be helpful here is The direct download link for the latest version.

and how would I add the ogg files or open them?
Oh, and allso, what packages do I need?
Thanks!

no daniel.

If you download the bog standard winamp light setup, that will automatically associate og files with the program, you won't need any other dependencies or similar.

In winamp's preferences (ctrl p), there are various options, such as automatically associating winamp with file types like mp3 so that they will play by default in winamp if you press enter on them in windows explorer.

Various other things are available in the installer, such as a winamp toolbar for your brouser, but these aren't necessary, you just need the program (I personally didn't install any of the other stuf).
Now Grryf, as to fun things winamp does.

Firstly, it's got very useful shortcut keys, (just check in the alt playing menue), and can quickly do things like skip to a specific time in a track (great when listening to audio books), or set time skip.

All useful functions are there, such as instantly raising or lowering volume with up and down arrows, playing folders, files, or urls (winamp streams stuff including radio stations pretty well), with easily available shortcuts.

It is also possible to defign global shortcut keys, so you can play winamp in any other program anywhere, and even to control it from other programs (the way rail racer and mushclient do).

As a bonus, winamp is one of the least ram heavy programs out there, so you can run it while doing innumerable other things (I frequently run winampwhile p0laying games, copying files, or even wripping cds with windows media player).

For me, the best thing about winamp is it's ability to use plugins to  play a hole range of music formats, including m4B aple compression format, and innumerable game formats like spc snes format,   Jim mega drive format, psf playstation format etc.

I think overall the thing I like best about  winamp is ot so quickly and easily replicates the functions of a cd player. None of  this mucking about with complex interfaces, or having to go through playlists and libraries (though it has functions if you wish), and none of the annoying interface issues as in windows media player.

Just stick it on, and press keys.

I hope this explains what's so good about it.

ok thanks so much dark!

Your welcome daniel, anything else you wish to know, just ask.

Is there anything particularly special about foobar robler?

i've heard of it, but never really been tempted to try it.
