if you have erik de castro lopo's libsndfile on your system, you also
have sndfile-convert, which can convert w64 into normal wavs. those can
be used with oggenc.
if you don't, get it here: http://www.mega-nerd.com/libsndfile/
in case you need to resample, also get his sample rate conversion
library at http://www.mega-nerd.com/SRC/.
