command line wav file player

Are there any command line wav file players i can use? I use licq and would like to enable sounds. My sound card works fine as it's an es1371 and already picked up by the kernel.

I don't use oss or alsa.. so i'm hoping i can get a quick suggestion.

Re: command line wav file player

and how do you want to play a file without soundcard software?

that's the same as playing a file in windows without the soundcard drivers!


apt-get install arch

Re: command line wav file player

Oh now there's a good way to welcome new Arch Linux users.. let's ridicule them. For starters, I am certainly not brain dead..  My soundcard is supported by the kernel.. therefore i have no need for installing alsa or oss as i already have sound... hence the request for info on where i could find a command line wav player. Not complicated now is it? How many people do you think use Arch Linux who are stupid?

Re: command line wav file player

the 'sox' package has the 'play' command for wav files.  It's in the unofficial repository.

I'm sorry, but I didn't read the whole message, just saw oss and alsa and a didn't. OSS/lite is part of the 2.4 kernel so if you have support for your card it is an oss/lite module loaded by the kernel. And an answer to your question: just one, me
