OGG playback with Java?

OK, I've spent all night trying to play some music, I've tried with everything, but all seemed too complex for my novice level. Checked a lot of source codes from applications that used JOrbis, but there was no luck. When I was almost thinking of leaving it for another day I found Kevin Glass' EasyOGG which was easy to setup and will do the job until I get to the synchronisation part.

So... finally!! .OGG playback!!

I'm using Paniq's Saturday Bam as placeholder.

Also, now I'm also hosting some of the .jar that was downloading from sun before. Seems to work.

Some people asked regarding the MacOS issue on my previous post. Well, basically the problem was my hosting and how I have the .htaccess file setup. Seems like, on the MacOS version of the Virtual Machine (hello Apple), the applet launcher needs to download something and before downloading from somewhere else, it checks if the file its already in the hosting, and as my .htaccess forwards all the 404 to index page the Java client was getting html stuff instead of a 404 and it was getting stuck. I don't know what tries to download because Charles doesn't sniff those connections, neither I found any information regarding that on the iterweb. So, got rid of the 404 rule on the .htaccess and it worked.

Anyway... 8.48am, time to sleep :S
