External Codec Error

Hello, it's been ages since i had an error !!

This Came directly from Xtool documentation
Xtool version used 6.2

this is my wav.ini
[Stream1]
Name=wav
Codec=wavpack
BigEndian=0
Signature=0x46464952
Structure=Signature(4),FileSize(4),FileType(4),Str eam
StreamOffset=-12
CompressedSize=FileSize + 8
DecompressedSize=0
Condition1=FileType = 0x45564157
Condition2=FileSize >= 4096

this is my xtool.ini
[wavpack]
Encode=wavpack.exe -hh -x4 <filein>.wav <fileout>.wv
Decode=wvunpack.exe <filein>.wv <fileout>.wav

i have been unable to make this even detect the sample FLAC internal codec works and so any other
NOTE: i use this as standalone and not in FA for testing purposes

external ogg codec/compressor

Hello everyone,
first of all thank you Razor12911 and eveyone else who made this possible.
Im currently experimenting with xtool and noticed no dedicated handling of ogg files. Im trying to compress some of my minecraft backups where mods with ogg sound files contribute a significant share.
I have already extraced some and compressed them with standalone oggre. Now i want to include them the same way panker1992 (i recreated his wavpack config and it worked ;D) did but im not really a hex guru. Did anyone already have a working ogg config ?
So far ive found the Signature but im not sure what to fill in for the rest of the ini values:

HTML Code:
[Stream1]
Name=ogg
Codec=oggre
BigEndian=0
Signature=0x5367674f
Structure=Signature(4),FileSize(4),FileType(4),Stream
StreamOffset=-12
CompressedSize=FileSize + 8
DecompressedSize=0

I'd advise against using XTool with oggre because oggre has built in deduplication that will not be working when each ogg is compressed individually with XTool.

Do you know any other ogg compressors ? Either way running it on single stream still resulted in a noticable reduction and i would see it as an example of how to correctly fill out these ini files. Can you help me with that ? From the xtool chm im not quite able to do that yet.
