convert ogg to wav


I have been searching and found a lot of programs and help for converting from wav file to ogg, but can't find one to convert ogg to wav or ogg to mp3. Is there one for linux? i found a few for windows, but couldn't get wine to run them properly.

thanks for the help.

loads....

for ogg -> way
mplayer will do it from the command line.
but if you have a graphical environemtn, you would also use xmms.

then use one of the mp3 encoders to convert the wav to an mp3.
dont make me list them, there are thousands

okay, I won't make you list them, but I have xmms and i looked online and in xmms man pages, but can't find anything about ogg to wav, I see wav to ogg and mp3 to wav, but not ogg to wav. How would I do it with xmms?

thanks

in the xmms options, choose the output pluggin "cd writer" that will convert the files to wav, and save them in your home directory.
