Question

Hey, I was looking for a good MP3 or OGG decoder that use the BSD license or public domain and that is also light-weight (something that comes with sources without the need of platform specific configuration).

Was it helpful?

Solution

You're not likely to find one for mp3 as there are a handful of licensing issues.

OGG is simply a container format that can hold audio, video, and more. Perhaps you mean ogg vorbis. Check out stb_vorbis. It's a free, public-domain C vorbis codec.

OTHER TIPS

Like this one?

The Xiph.org libvorbis is available in pretty much every distro, and satisfies your requirement for a BSD-3-Clause license. "Light" is always relative... Also from Xiph.org available is libtremor, a integer-only vorbis decoder.

As other answers have mentioned, there are Vorbis decoders. The Fluendo MP3 decoder is MIT (simplified BSD) licensed.
