I have this line: ALSA=`aplay --version` in a script. when I execute the script I get the message line 187: --version: command not found when I do "aplay --version" on the command line it works just fine. What is happening here, --version is a valid command line option? Thanks, jerry

Hi all, I am trying to extract from the aplay -l output the Card and Device numbers. I had a script that was working but found another motherboard that has an EXTRA word. HDA Nvidia and HDA ATI HDMI is what I am talking about below. how do I search for a line that has HDMI (which I know how to do), then ignore everything upto the device work...

I won't bother you with that, since things do in fact work with aplay. It seems I'm looking at a libao problem. Specifically: I can mix as many streams as I want using just "aplay" but if I start by playing one track with "ogg123" (which uses...

I am running pulseaudio on centOS 6.5 audio works fine as the user. running the command aplay /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav works fine. when I login as root and run the command su user -c "aplay /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav" it does not work. I thought su actually runs as that user... is there some "magic" to su I don't know about? How might I...

I have a Debian Sarge box that I am trying to get icecast2 and ices2 up and running on. I'm having problems, but do not know where to look to identify the problem. I have my audio working with ALSA - microphone in plays through my audio out. I'm running a basic configuration using the defaults provided, and the ALSA example config file for ices. When I try to connect to the server using

How do I make my headset work. Before I try it with anything else, I'd like to make it work with arecord and aplay. VLC and movie player can make sounds with my external speakers. though not in my headset yet. I've got an insignia NS-PAH5101 headset. As directed, the red connector is in the pink spot and the green connector in green spot in the back of my computer. arecord folloed by aplay just gets me stat...

I am using usb-audio for Console/Dsp with asterisk. it is crashing 1.4.21 and also svn. During the brief times its working the audio is choppy but understandable. I have used aplay and arecord at the same time on the same wave file and they work fine every time and I have done it MANY times. Asterisk failes after 1 or 2 times. Any ideas on something I can try? Jerry

...and after post-processing (normalization, noide reduction) I saved them as flac (still 44.1kHz/24bit). I noticed that ogg123 can decode these, but it will output 24 bit only. Specifically there's no option to transform the output to 16bit. When trying to pipe the 24bit WAV output of ogg123 into aplay, aplay refused to accept the 24 bit stream. 8-( Wouldn't an option to reduce the number of bits in the output be useful? (For some obsucre reason ogg123 does not produce audible output on openSUSE 13.2 with GNOME (I tried different output options), while aplay does) Regards, Ulrich
