Need A VOC File Player For Linux
Hello forum,
Is there an audio player for Linux that is capable of playing .voc audio files? I believe Sound Blaster initiated this type of file years ago. I purchased an RCA digital voice recorder (like a tape recorder but uses memory instead of tape) but it only outputs the audio files as .voc files. The accompanying software will play the .voc files in Windows only. Help will be appreciated. Roy |
I found this example file. It plays OK in mplayer for me. sox was able to convert it into a ogg/vorbis file like this:
Code:
sox buzzer.voc buzzer.ogg |
ffmpeg has voc support, so they should play with mplayer at least (it can use ffmpeg/libavcodec as a backend), or directly using ffplay. You can also convert them to something more playable. For example:
ffmpeg -i inputfile.voc -acodec vorbis -ar 44100 -ab 128k outputfile.ogg All this is assuming that the .voc files are indeed the same Creative audio voice file format, of course. |
Those files are NOT the Creative Labs standard, according to
http://www.cybercom.net/~dcoffin/rca/ Dave Coffin has cracked this proprietary standard (RCA's ".voc"); details at link above. |
It also works in wine
The windows program that comes with the voice recorder works great in wine-1.1.32(without doing any configuration). and it can convert the files to .wav(though you have to do a lot of clicking to do so).

in order to play voc successfully,one method is to convert voc to a more popular audio format like mp3
i just find a stpe by step video tutorial on how to convert voc to mp3, wav, wma |
