-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Actually, I think there's a way to get ogg123 to send .wav format to the stdout pipe. Yes, for sure to look at the man page for latest correct details. I do just that with a script I use to convert flac to ogg and to mp3. In that case, the intermediate format is definitely .wav though. Jack was looking for a "direct" path with no intermediate holding area, pipe, etc. and AFAIK that is probably impossible.
