Both of these problems were eliminated by first converting the .wav files into .cdr files using the command line program sox, which stripped the header information from the .wav files and padded the audio files so that there were no chunks of audio data that were less than the usual block size for audio CDs. -Steve D NM US ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
High pitch/wrong frequency audio on disc via burncd
Good afternoon, I have a series of wma files (speeches) which I convert to wav via mplayer. The wav files played fine using both xmms and Noatun. However when I burn them onto a cd via burncd: burncd -f /dev/acd0c audio *.wav fixate the resulting audio on the disc gives me high pitch/wrong frequency audio. I never had problem with burncd before but this is the first time I burned wav files obtained via conversion from wma files. Any help is greatly appreciated. Many thanks in advance.

Ada It's likely a problem with the samplerate of your wav files. To burn an audio cd your tracks should be in stereo with a samplerate of 44100 Hz. Also, take a look at the FreeBSD Handbook sec 16.3.4 to see why you should convert to raw pcm instead of wav when you use burncd. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
