Hi Cygwin Team, 1st sox problem: in Cygwin 1.7.28 sound is broken. (sox + play) I followed all hints as reply to my first post last week.
$ play blip.wav blip.wav: File Size: 1.33k Bit Rate: 94.4k Encoding: Unsigned PCM Channels: 1 @ 8-bit Samplerate: 11025Hz Replaygain: off Duration: 00:00:00.11 In:100% 00:00:00.11 [00:00:00.00] Out:1.25k [======|======] Clip:0 Done. ==> BUT I DONT HEAR ANYTHING, but same file works with other windows players (==> soundcard + driver + speaker = ok). 2nd sox problem: setup for sox* packages seems to be broken too (download incomplete msg). It is the first time I have problems installing cygwin-packages. It is server independent (ftp:*.de). ------------------------------- Possible solution: Why not using sounder.exe (freeware) which works without any setup and can play RIFF-WAVE-PCM and RIFF-WAVE-MP3 from command line. Together with aplay.exe (my c-code to emulate linux aplay player (using sounder internally). Install this way: -- wget http://www.physik.tu-berlin.de/~aleks/aplay.c wget http://www.elifulkerson.com/projects/downloads/sounder2013/sounder.exe gcc -O1 -o aplay.exe aplay.c cp aplay.exe sounder.exe /usr/bin/ -- -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
