Sansa Fuze+

To Slotmonsta:

The documentation says that Ogg Vorbis is a supported format.  Ogg Vorbis is a codec for music or general audio streams.  OGG is rightly a container format for audio and video to include Vorbis, Theora and SPEEX.  My interest lies primarily in getting the Fuze+ to handle SPEEX.

Like Vorbis, Speex is not encumbered by patents, copyrights and royalty payments.  Does the Fuze+ player support any voice codecs?  I did not see AMR, G.729.1, G.722 or SPEEX listed.  When I copied a .spx file to the player, it was ignored. 

Can this function be prioritized or added?

People like myself that Record FM talk radio would love to be able to convert the huge files generated by the Fuze+ to one of these voice formats particularly for use as a podcast – if the Fuze+ supported SPEEX or AMR.  This could be done on the PC using FFmpeg.

I suggest Speex rather than AMR as you already handle the ogg container format and the DSP decoder is free software.
