I'm having a strange problem here. I'm using the "play" that comes with the
sox in RHL 5.0 (sox-11g-6) to play various sound files. Occasionally, I'd
have problems with play just emitting a loud, high-pitched screeching sound.
I attributed this to a corrupt sound file until recently. I found out that it
wasn't corrupt when I took a "corrupt" wav file from my Linux box and moved it
over to my Solaris Sparc. It played fine there. I then went about trying to
find other sound (in particular, wav) players and tested the "corrupt" file
with that and it played fine.
I liked sox and found it supported a bunch of file formats. I'd be willing to
change if anyone can suggest a simple ($ play <soundfile>), yet powerful ($
play <justaboutanysoundfile>) replacement. Maybe I've just got sox configured
incorrectly? (Can you even configure sox?)
Thanks,
pete
