Quite the same solution as Corona688; uses aplay to play wav files:
Code:
#!/bin/sh
while read line; do
set -- $line
while [ "$1" ]; do
echo aplay "$1.wav" # remove echo to actually let aplay play the wav file
shift
done
done
exit 0
Example usage: ~/unix.com$ echo input_file | sh the_above_script.sh
Code:
~/unix.com$ cat input_file
one four five
two
three
~/unix.com$ cat input_file | sh the_above_script.sh
aplay one.wav
aplay four.wav
aplay five.wav
aplay two.wav
aplay three.wav
Of course, remove the echo that prevent the aplay to do its job
hi all,
How do I set up my cdrom to play some regular audio cd (not cd-r or cd-rw). I know that my cdrom has been mounted as it does pop up the file manager if I put in, e.g., the office52 cd.
Thanks in advance.

I posted this question in the dummies forums, but I would like to get a more expert opinion... I am looking for a new OS to play with.

Hi All,
Recently I installed Linux RHEL5 on my machine. It seems that I can not play sound on RHEL5. I have real player installed along with RHEL5 but, when I try to play any song, the error message comes up saying "Can not open the audio device.Another application may be using it."

approximately the same question as the last time, but unfortunately I didn't get
a working answer.
I made a script with bash and gtkdialog that create a play-list. The output is for example :

SONIC(1) General Commands Manual SONIC(1)NAME
sonic - Speech speed manipulator
SYNOPSIS
sonic [OPTION]... inFile outFile
DESCRIPTION
Sonic is used to make wav files of speech faster or slower. The primary advance in sonic is the ability to speed speech up by much more
than 2X, with minimal distortion. However, sonic can be used for both speeding up and slowing down speech files. Additionally, sonic can
change the pitch and volume.
OPTIONS -c Modify pitch by emulating vocal chords vibrating faster or slower. This causes more distortion than the default pitch scaling, but
sounds more like the same person trying to talk higher or lower. The default pitch changes makes the voice sound like a larger or
smaller person, but introduces little distortion.
-p pitch
Set pitch scaling factor. 1.3 means 30%% higher.
-q Disable all speed-up heuristics, possibly improving the quality slightly. This is mainly used for debugging the speed-up heuris-
tics.
-r rate
Adjust the speed of playback. This sales both the pitch and speed equally.
-s speed
Set speed up factor. 1.0 means no change, 2.0 means 2X faster.
-v scaleFactor
Scale volume by scaleFactor. 1.5 increases by 50%. Clips if the maximum range is exceeded.
EXAMPLES
sonic -s 3.2 book.wav book_fast.wav
The above command would increase the speed of an audio book called book.wav by a factor of 3.2, and write the result in book_fast.wav.
sonic -s 0.5 -v 1.5 spanish.wav spanish_slow.wav
This would slow down the file spanish.wav by a factor of 2, make the volume 50% louder, and write the result to spanish_slow.wav.
sonic -p 2.0 low.wav high.wav
This would make a low voice sound very high pitched.
