at + mpg321 how to do this?
 
I would like to wake up with my favorite song, so how can I do this?
I've red the at manual and tried to do that but probably i'm doing something wrong :/
eg at 7:00 -c mpg321 /home/t0udi/1.mp3 ?

The correct name of the application is mpg123. You have it as mpg321.

Not necessarily. mpg321 is a patent/encumbrance free clone of mpg123. Generally if you have *321 installed it is a symlink to *123 so that you may always use mpg123 in a script and it will work no matter which is installed.

Try
Code:
echo "mpg321 /home/t0udi/1.mp3"|at 7:00

Cheers,
