Seems to be quite stable in the 1.0.x releases. Not personally moved to
the 1.1.x unstables yet to check where speex is at present in
development.

Yes, other than the quite dated alpha's Theora is CVS. As of the last
time I built Theora (which was a while ago now) it did require you have
the nightly vorbis snapshot to add newer features which are needed for
successful Theora builds. When I get some spare time (which does happen
occasionally, but is rare at the mo) I will checkout how Theora is with
FC1 at the present time - Unless of course someone else can answer the
question? :)
