Very Computer

Hello everyone,

I wonder how I can play a *.au sound file whilst I'm online with Cab
(with Mint/Mintnet). I know one can use Looknsee (seigsmir) for *.wav
files (it works great) but are there some programs that displays
*.au?

Thanks
Martin

After converting you can play the file in a wav-player-programm

Thank you anyway for your reply.

You mentioned a couple crucial requirements, but for what it's worth, here's my full
list:

1.  playback _only_ of
    a.  AVR
    b.  WAV
    c.  AU
    d.  AIF(C)

2.  8 or 16 bit capable

3.  stereo capable

4.  gem-clean (runs under tos or magic or multitos)

5.  AV protocol aware (A MUST!!!)

6.  does not draw a window, dialog box or anything else on the screen! Just plays the
    sound!

7. for samples with non-atari frequencies, should re-sample upon loading, then play it.

8.  works on a falcon.

9.  clears the buffer, so I don't hear remnants of previously played sounds (a problem
    I have with 16-bit sounds in snd_play by Richard Kurz and SAM by Scott Sanders.)

10. does not turn the keyclick off (or if it does, turns it back on after playback is done
    playing) (a problem I have with bng_play by Vanel Remi.)

I was willing to pay US$275 for Lattice C just to get this program on my hard drive, so
you can easily guess I would register someone's shareware offering in a second.

Please?? :)

I looked at all the switches in the manual and figured I shouldn't have to go
