Both sox and mplayer are amenable. I've used both in shutlp, a gapless loop player with a count-in metronome (sox being used as a decoder and beat generator, and mplayer to output to various back-ends -- pulse, jack, alsa), http://danmbox.github.com/shut-audio-tools/ (the programs are unnecessarily complex because I really wanted to see if POSIX sh could control multiple processes reliably) For mplayer, I used -quiet -noterm-osd -demuxer rawaudio -rawaudio; you may want to actually SEE some of mplayer's messages, e.g. in case the files to be played are corrupt. Oh, and mplayer can also read control commands from a FIFO, via -input file=/tmp/fifo. -- Dan _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-dev mailing list Linux-audio-dev@lists.linuxaudio.org http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-dev
