Hi All,
I have a wav file which cdrecord is rejecting, I believe because it is
24 bit rather than 16; here is the output from 'file':
taylor_oxley_dixon.wav: RIFF (little-endian) data, WAVE audio,
Microsoft PCM, 24 bit, stereo 44100 Hz
Would someone be kind enough to tell me the command to convert this
file to 16 bit, please? The sox manpage has only confused me.
I did try:
$ sox taylor_oxley_dixon.wav taylor_oxley_dixon.cdr
sox: Failed reading taylor, oxley and dixon.wav: Sorry, don't
understand .wav size
You could give a try to sndfile-convert, an example program that comes
with the excellent libsndfile library.
Thanks in advance,
Kenneth
Hope this helps.
