Hello - In a prior post (subject K3b & cdwriter) I explained the method I use for decoding mp3s to wav files so I can make a CD from them. I mentioned that I was planning on scrapping this because mpg123 fails to play the file(s) in question. So (presumably) decoding via mpg123 is not an option here.
What I subsequently found -- mplayer to the rescue. At least mplayer will play them when mpg123 refuses to do so. I also tried lame to decode one of these files, and the result is a segmentation fault preceded by a number of unsupported messages relating to bitstream resyncing and frequency changes. The process (in comparison with mpg123 piping to sox) is *significantly* slower. I'm thinking along the lines "if mplayer can play it, it should be able to decode it." mplayer -streamdump <file> dumps core. :( And the (incomplete) dumped stream is in mp3 format. Somehow I don't think it's going to work. I imagine folks here have tried this before. Any help? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ David E.
