Great Job puppian and thanks. I believe this will help out puppy's
greatly. This can be used for creating audio tutorials, as well as
for PawCasting. If anybody thinks of any other uses for audio puppy it would be greatly appreciated to advise us.

Thanks Puppian

Thanks

I wasn't fond of sound editing because that's too slow in windowz...
Now with puppy and audacity I'm having fun playing with my sound files...very fast !!! Puppy is great !!!

Btw, audacity needs libmp3lame.so to export mp3 files. So to convert files to mp3 files, go to File / Export As MP3 and when asked where libmp3lame.so is, browser to /root/my-applications/lib

I have used Audacity to create a Radio Puppy pawed cast about Puppy 1.0.5 in ogg vorbis format - it is a 1.3 meg file

Hey the pawed cast is great!!

It's a quick download and the sound is clear.

I can't open the file with gxine, but both xmms and mplayer play it fine.

I like the intro too Very Happy

PS. and thanks Rev, for collecting all the libraries needed together Cool

, it's the most timing consuming task when making a dotpup

Thanks both of you! Now when I want to transfer my cassette recordings to my harddrive, I don't have to run them through lame. I can just do it all from the same program. One of these days I'm going to use it to try making some music with just my voice and maybe audio samples. It'll probably suck, but you never know! Smile

It was in front of my nose all the time. I have been doing a lot of recording on minidisk and editing with Audacity found that if I send .ogg to windows users most of them can't open them. I searched the board to find where lame was located and finally gave up.

Out of curiosity I did a google search today and there was my answer. I can't wait to send off a couple samples of my new native american flute to my friends.

Lame is either in standard puppy or the dev addon. I've never installed it in Puppy. It's just always been there since the first time I looked for it.

Can you make it sound like a Puppy?

Must be you heard Coyote's wish.

I actually had a bunch of them howl to that song when I was hiking one day.

I am waiting for Puppy 2.0 for my next upgrade on that machine.

If you have audacity installed you can use this script. Create new blank file and paste this code into the blank file. Then rename the file to wma2mp3. Then chmod +x wma2mp3

Usage = cd to the directory which contains your wma files and use command
wma2mp3 *.wma
