in reply to Toronto Perl Mongers Audio Archives

I guess you probably know all the details about ogg, but just for the sake of smaller file sizes, I know you can get smaller files with ogg, than using speex, if you input 11025 Khz raw audio and use the -q 0 setting. (For us poor phone line users :-) )
arecord -f S16_LE -c1 -r 11025 -t raw -d 3600 -D hw:0,0 | oggenc -R 11 +025 -C1 -q 0 - | cat > myaudio.ogg
I know it can be done with a Perl script, but a 1-liner in shell is easier.

    For a variety of reasons, I think I'll be switching to MP3. I have already encoded the 'recent' talks in MP3, and I think I'll go back and re-encode the first months talks too.

    Now I didn't try the apps you mention. I wasn't happy with the results, when I used lower rates, using the tools I had available at the time. I will be continuing to experiment with the sizes, rates and qualities as time goes on.

    Thanks for your example. I will check it out.
