[Request] recognize .ogv and .webm files as video files
Posted: 23 Sep 2010 21:48I'd like to suggest a few formats that Shareaza should, IMHO, recognize.
.ogv files should be recognized as video files for obvious reasons: since Firefox, Chrome and Opera support this format for HTML5 video, its the popularity will certainly increase (I already have much more ogv files on my hard disk than say last year).
.webm files should probably be recognized as video files too, for the same reasons. Right now the format is not widespread, but one can reasonably expect this to change with time.
If the idea is approved and if I am not mistaken, <type extension="ogv"/> and <type extension="webm"/> need to be added to video.xml.
Also, now that the mime type of Ogg files is more clearly defined (cf. RFC 5334 section 10), it might make sense to add .oga as an audio file type to audio.xml (while keeping .ogg according to the RFC).
Your remarks would be more than welcome.
