I'm not certain of this is a 'sox' issue, or not, but here is the symptom I'm seeing: I've got sox reading a 'cdr'-type sound file via a FIFO. I've got a five-second ( ~860kb ) sound sample that I'm testing with. I've been able to verify with 'tee' that my sample is making it though the FIFO in it's entirety. When I tell sox to same that sample as a cdr (rather than playing it), I'm seeing a 21840-byte difference in size (about 1/8th of a second); sox is sitting on the data. :/ This is under FreeBSD 4.5-RELEASE with sox v 12.17.3 (from the package, not from ports.) Does anyone have any clue what might be going on? It there some magic sequence of bytes I can send down the pipe to coerce sox to finish processing my sample? I can explain in greater detail what I'm trying to accomplish, if you think I'm hiding important details... Thanks for any advice you might have... -- Brian 'you Bastard' Reichert <reichert@numachi.com> 37 Crystal Ave. #303 Daytime number: (603) 434-6842 Derry NH 03038-1713 USA Intel architecture: the left-hand path To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-multimedia" in the body of the message
