To: Marko Randjelovic <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>


As mentionned in the manpage where they talk about the "-" option:
"Note that when using this option, the file-type (see -t  below)  must
also be given."

Just to make sure...
Does "cat test.wav | sox -t wav - -t ossdsp /dev/dsp" work?

-Pascal

I am running, now stable, Etch, sox version 13.0.0-1. This sox version
does not segfault, but doesn't work anyway. The error message is

sox stio: Failed reading `-': Could not determine file type.

I don't understand why it say "Could not determine file type" since I
used "-t ossdsp" argument.

Everything I said applies to using stdin. When I specify filename as
input, sox plays the file with no problems.
