David,
<< Smacker and NIC.. >>
You'll see a different story with smacker. I just had a call from canada.
A developer smacked a 64 meg flic file down to 10 megs. He loved the
play back smoooothness as well as the minimum losslessnes in the lossy
compression. FWIW.

Isn't "losslessness" a great word?

P.S. Thanks for the testimonial – who was it? We've sold more copies in Canada
than in the US so far.
Jeff,

Do you wish to comment on pg 4 of the Smacker manual stating
that the smacked file already supports interleaved sound but doesn't
support it yet?

Did you like that? <grin> Actually there are undocumented switches to
interleave sound (or any other data actually) into the frame data. So, as the
manual says, Smacker supports interleaved sound, it just doesn't play it. But
I do plead guilty to writing that sentence, am I going to be caned? I've always
wanted to be on Geraldo.
We found our sound solution however, and will release it very shortly. Sound
actually sucks quite a bit – the sound library we are going to use has 50
different drivers! It's out of control.

Nope. I really liked finding that sentence and look forward to….

Well, let me know when I can test this. 🙂
