I tried some tools, but ... "sox" says I have to change the rate (and often crashes). "rplay" gives you only poor audio quality. "nas" occupies /dev/audio and /dev/dsp so that for example xanim only plays silent movies. "cat anything >/dev/audio" doesn't queue/mix the files and there is no conversion. Any suggestions? Many thanX. Oliver -- *** Oliver Scheel, Zenettistr. 45a, D-80337 Muenchen, Germany *** *** email: os@hannibal.camelot.de http://www.camelot.de/~os/ ***
