This could be nothing more than my own misunderstanding, but the only things I'm able to get to work are very short .au files that I cat to /dev/audio. Everything else, from QT files with imbedded audio tracks to random .WAV files (including those from http://www.webb.com/grinch - How the Grinch Stole Christmas) only play for a fraction of a second and then cut out. Any hints as to what I'm doing wrong? I'm using xanim and netscape (and cat) to output the sound. John
