Timo Baumann :: Weblog :: sox in Ubuntu Hardy (8.04)

April 25, 2008

If you just upgraded your Ubuntu to 8.04 and use sox, then you may get the error "sox soxio: Failed reading `some.file': unknown file type `auto'"

In Hardy, all audio formats for sox have been refactored in separate packages libsox-fmt-XYZ. So, either install just the base formats from libsox-fmt-base or get all possible formats with libsox-fmt-all.

Keywords: howto, sox, ubuntu
