Has anyone experience with reading of .Ogg or .Mp3 files and can give me a briefing?
Or does anyone know if sndfile.h was ported to D?

Try running it through DStep: http://forum.dlang.org/thread/jt9i6l$2go5$1@digitalmars.com

I haven't used it yet, but here's a derelict-style binding for sndfile: https://github.com/p0nce/DerelictSndFile

I'm using libvorbis to read and OpenAL to playback .ogg files. The functions you need to import are really minimal. There are good samples on the vorbis side how to read in ogg files and openal is also not really complicated. I can post code if you want.

Kind Regards

Yes .ogg files and even .wav works since today. But reading mp3 should be even simple as .ogg files, or not?

Well .ogg and .mp3 are quite similar in compression technology. But you will need a mp3 library to read them. I don't know a opensource one.

I cannot open and read them like .wav files, simply with FILE* and fread? o.O
I thougth i only need the structure of mp3 files and then i can read them.

Well yes, if you write your own mp3 decoder then you can do that. But the sound information within mp3s is compressed using inverse fourier transform and some other fancy math stuff. It will take quite some time to write all the code neccessary for reading the whole format.

Ah, ok, i thought it would be so easy like reading .wav files.
