Yes, another interesting way to use mplayer. You can use the -dumpaudio option to get the raw audio data out of the file. I am usually not trying to get the raw audio however, because it might be compressed or encoded in weird ways. I usally want to have a nice uncompressed wav file that I can work with. And mplayer is pretty handy for that... So many choices! Phil -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
