[REBOL] Re: Playing sounds

[ryan . christiansen]

Sorry, I'm not versed in the different WAV formats. Will REBOL play a wave
file from an audio CD?

At this time only standard, uncompressed PCM WAVs are supported.
Compressed WAVs (Mu-Law, A-Law, AD-PCM) are not supported yet --
probably will be in a future version.

For now use a utility like "sox" to convert WAVs to PCM.

There is more information in http://www.rebol.com/docs/sound.html
