Thanks cliveb, I'm progressing ! I managed to create an effective custom-convert file through SSH, and so could test your code. But, when using for instance the <delay 0 1> instruction in the line code, I do indeed have a time delay effect of 1s, but this time delay is not applied to the right speaker as opposed to the left one, as I would need it to. Instead, it generates an echo of 1s of the audio stream for both left and right speakers. So left and right remain aligned. Perhaps "channel 1" is not pointing to left speaker, and "channel 2" to right speaker ? I tried to sort things out with the sox manual, but to say the truth with my level of knowledge I'm having a bit of a hard time, as I do not find that instructions such as "multi-threaded", "no-clobber" are very much explicited... I'll let it sleep overnight before coming back to it ;-) And by the way, indeed no use of C-3PO to run Sox. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ nils92's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=72184 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=115289 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
