I managed to get SoX up and going, unfortunately once my syntax was correct(I think) there were no errors in the log, in fact, the log had nothing. When I had mis-wrote some code, it returned an error, so, I know it's transcribing info. Although it's quite possible I'm totally missing something.
OR, was the log supposed to return an output of some sort if it's working properly??
Trying to play an MP3 off my NAS I've realized that I don't have the Fruenhoffer/MP3 codec, I've heard that Fluendo is pretty awesome as well, and supports a plethora of video/audio codecs. Unfortunately I don't have any repositories I can add after doing a cursory search. Any thoughts?
However, I'm under the impression that the simple gnome accessible sound files are playable. Or, do codecs have to be installed before even playing NON-proprietary music files?
That being said, is there a way to add Beta-OSS drivers through a repository? I was reading somewhere that maybe a newer version may have certain "Fixes" to my problemo.
I am totally frustrated and losing sleep over this menagerie. Despite that, I've been totally seduced with the whole Solaris experience, unfortunately one of the basic tenants -- audio is nonexistent.
Is there a unix command to find out what type of graphics card you have installed and to see other hardware settings? Any help would be appreciated. I'm using Solaris 7. :D
Thanks,

Hi, Gurus !
I need to find out how I can control the sound in UNIX.
I have got a pair of USB speakers which do not have any volume controls.
Is there any tool in Solaris 2.9 to control the volume ?
Thanks

I'm trying to determine the End of Service Life for some of our Solaris servers, and I'm not sure if our servers are ROHS compliant. Is there a command to determine if the server is ROHS? If not, is there somewhere on the chasis where I can find this information? (2 Replies)

soxi
SoXI(1) Sound eXchange SoXI(1)NAME
SoXI - Sound eXchange Information, display sound file metadata
SYNOPSIS
soxi [-V[level]] [-T] [-t|-r|-c|-s|-d|-D|-b|-B|-e|-a] infile1 ...
DESCRIPTION
Displays information from the header of a given audio file or files. Supported audio file types are listed and described in soxformat(7).
Note however, that soxi is intended for use only with audio files with a self-describing header.
By default, as much information as is available is shown. An option may be given to select just a single piece of information (perhaps for
use in a script or batch-file).
OPTIONS -V Set verbosity. See sox(1) for details.
-T Used with multiple files; changes the behaviour of -s, -d and -D to display the total across all given files. Note that when used
with -s with files with different sampling rates, this is of questionable value.
-t Show detected file-type.
-r Show sample-rate.
-c Show number of channels.
-s Show number of samples (0 if unavailable).
-d Show duration in hours, minutes and seconds (0 if unavailable). Equivalent to number of samples divided by the sample-rate.
-D Show duration in seconds (0 if unavailable).
-b Show number of bits per sample.
-B Show the bitrate averaged over the whole file (0 if unavailable).
-e Show the name of the audio encoding.
-a Show file comments (annotations) if available.
BUGS
Please report any bugs found in this version of SoX to the mailing list (sox-users@lists.sourceforge.net).
