Due to the licensing issues with MP3 music I want to use the OGG format on Windows and Android, and the M4A format on iOS for my in game music.

MP3 Licensing:
http://mp3licensing.com/royalty/games.html



OGG music plays fine on my Windows 7 PC but not on Windows 8. I have also tried M4A but only MP3's will play from my AppGameKit game on Windows 8.

Can anyone else confirm that OGG music doesn't play through AppGameKit on Windows 8?

EDIT: Using Tier 1, AppGameKit 108 beta 19.

Thanks

Paul has confirmed that AppGameKit uses DirectShow to play music on Windows. The DirectShow codec needs be installed on the PC for OGG music to be played.

After installing the codec http://xiph.org/dshow/ the music plays on my Windows 8 PC.
