I h ave numerous wav-files that I could only listen to under Windows :-( Date: Wed, 21 Jun 2000 14:01:26 -0400 MIME-Version: 1.0 X-Mailer: Internet Mail Service (5.5.2650.10) Content-Type: text/plain; charset="windows-1252" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I have noticed this for sometime, not being a high priority on my list I go and investage this. I believe that the some waves will not play on FBSD because Microsoft has 2 of it's own wav formats such as Microsoft PCM and Microsoft G 723.1. Don't ask me the differences between them and standard that everyone else has since I don't know. I was able to test this by using soundrecorder in windows to save a wave that was in one of these microsoft formats to a normal wave PCM. I haven't found anything to in FBSD to translate these formats. Of course, all this is just my theory. If anyone can back me up or disprovement please do. I'd love to just play wav without haveing to translate them at work. Rod.....
