No, not doing anything untoward (I don't think). I'm trying to move audiobooks (that have been paid for) from the CDs to something I can listen to without having to walk across the room to change the disks every so often, and to get distracting announcements (like which disk we're on) out of the story. Or to get podcast readings of books in several mp3s into one piece, again with fewer irrelevant announcements. And with less retelling of stuff from last week's podcast. Cdparanoia rips the CDs into a bunch of wav files (often vast numbers of tiny ones), and the mp3s just need a little un-processing. Both formats are in many files when sox gets them. No snippets or buffers or lack of acquisition; it's all there on the disk. I know that what I'm making could be used for pirating copyrighted material, but that's not the objective here. I just want the readings I listen to back in one uninterrupted piece, like they were before they were chopped up. Like the recordings I made back in my misspent youth as an audio engineer. -- Glenn English ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ Sox-users mailing list Sox-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/sox-users
