Well, find a couple "failed" files and see what soxi has to say about them. Or maybe stat or stats. I can't see your files, so I can't even guess how they might have "failed". Do they sound wrong? Do they stop playing? Do they skip? Do they not play at all? Is the extension incorrect? My course of action would be to use command line tools to try to find a way to spot the "failed" files. Once you know what is wrong, then there is a chance for a shell script to sort them out. But until you - or we - have some clue as to how they failed, there is little chance of success. -- f ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Sox-users mailing list Sox-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/sox-users
