Hi Chuck. I have the ogg123 player installed on my system, but I don't
understand what the syntax for the command line should be.
For
instance, if I type "ogg123 rms-nyu.ogg, it says it's playing the file
but I don't hear anything.
If I use the -v option, it tells me
that the plugin is a null device or some such ching and the manpage is
about as clear as mud. Do I need to install something else, or what?
I'd really like to hear what the man has to say. Thanks.
