[Gnump3d-users] Downsampling Error

[Brian Reichert]

I'm running into something that seems over my head for the moment.  If I enable
down-sampling I run into multiple music files that do not play correctly.  xmms
just buffers in an endless loop if it's the only song in the list, or it just
skips the long if it's part of a longer list.

My downsampling lines in gnump3d.conf are:

        downsample_high_mp3   = /usr/bin/lame  --mp3input -b 128 $FILENAME -
        downsample_medium_mp3 = /usr/bin/lame  --mp3input -b 64 $FILENAME -
        downsample_low_mp3    = /usr/bin/lame  --mp3input -b 32 $FILENAME -
        #
        downsample_high_ogg   = sox -t ogg $FILENAME -t raw - | oggenc --raw 
--downmix -b 128 -
        downsample_medium_ogg = sox -t ogg $FILENAME -t raw - | oggenc --raw 
--downmix -b 64 -
        downsample_low_ogg    = sox -t ogg $FILENAME -t raw - | oggenc --raw 
--downmix --resample 22050 -b 32 -

And, my error.log gets full of these for each song thus skipped:

        print() on closed filehandle CACHING at /usr/bin/gnump3d line 1866, 
<GEN237> line 4.
        print() on closed filehandle CACHING at /usr/bin/gnump3d line 1866, 
<GEN237> line 4.
        Cache is 0 bytes. 0 is allowed.
        sox: Error writing: Do not support this encoding for this data size
        sox: Error writing: Do not support this encoding for this data size
        Resampling input from 44100 Hz to 22050 Hz
        Downmixing stereo to mono
        Encoding standard input to
                 standard output
        at approximate bitrate 32 kbps (VBR encoding enabled)


        Done encoding.

                File length:  0m 00.0s
                Elapsed time: 0m 00.0s
                Rate:         0.0000
                Average bitrate: inf kb/s

All files play flawlessly when I disable downsampling.  I'd leave it off, but
I'm setting up gnump3d to stream my music collection to work so I can listen
w/o having to lug around a drive, keep it synced, etc etc.

A nudge in the right directly to fix this would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
