Hello Greg,
Thanks for your work with streamripper. It really is a great tool.

Yup. I know that feeling ;-)

Here is what I did.
1 record sound to wav file
2 used oggenc to encode to ogg
3 checked with ogginfo - result OK
4 used "head -n -10" to truncate end of file
5 played file in each app
Results
helix - played fine until last few seconds then barfed with "General
error: HXR_UNEXPECTED (0x80040009)"
ogg123 - played so well you would not have known it was truncated.
xmms - same as ogg123
vlc - same as ogg123 (though it displayed incorrect duration)
Navigation was possible in all apps.
Let me know if you need further tests. I am happy to help.
