I just use ogg123 to play them. Normally through my "pick one CD at random from my collection and play it" bash function
Code:
function playcd () I used to use mpc/mpd for my music playing needs. I keep meaning to go back to it as I liked it a lot, but for now the above does all I need. |

As you now use one of the *123 programs, the info may not be relevant for you, but I use the tools from the sox package tools together with programs, such as faac etc. for conversion between formats. And sometimes I play a little with the many effects of play, which is really fun. ;) But in the end it's the music that counts. And sometimes a 46 years old record can touch your heart, and that's the moment when I know, where the real value of all this technology lies. Music was my first love, and it will definitely be my last (*). ;) gargamel (*) John Miles (just mentioning it in order not to get sued by music industry lawyers, because of copyright violation.... ;) ) |
I have a Columbia record, recorded in 1955, one of the first microgroove records made. It has been played over a hundred times and it sounds as if I had bought it yesterday. As if instead of vinyl the record were made of steel. And the nature of the recorded material makes it easy to detect imperfections in the reproduced signal.
I only have downloaded flac123. I have not compiled it yet. And what you say about sox, combined with the great power it has, has definitely turned my mind towards play. It is perfectly probable play 12.18.1 can play the flac file. It has to be passed the correct parameters, I think. Although the pertinent parameters, their values I mean, must be embedded in the file itself. |
