Re: [LAU] Jack-enabled CLI Player

Hi David! I believe nowadays there's sndfile-jackplay. If sndfile really supports ogg, it should play this. Then there's alsaplayer. Despite the name it does do the trick. At least it did a few years back, when I had it installed. ecasound can do it, although you might also think it heavy. In any case it just relies on ogg123. You might do it with a small pipe. Something like: oggdec -o - <1> | sndfile-jackplay [whatever options] - Where "-" of course is stdin/stdout respectively. If you know of more smalltime jackplayers in commandline mod, I think there was something called jackplay, you can whomp up those pipes yourself easily. A last alternative, I can think of, is using the JACK module of ALSa. This only works, if .asoundrc or alsa's system-wide config is set to include the jack-plugin as the default output. Then you could use ogg123. A last question/doubt: Doesn't libao support jack today? If so ogg123 would work in any case, because it uses libao as output. But as I said, I don't know.
