If you just want MPlayer to decode things for you, you can use

mplayer -ao pcm

which will dump the output to audiodump.wav which sox should be able
to play.


The above is because the most recently compiled mplayer does not actually play sounds but it does make a .wav file.

I can type
mplayer -ao pcm http://(URL of streaming mp3)

and it fills a 320K buffer and continues to make audiodump.wav.

Then I can 'play audiodump.wav.'

But I cannot combine the two of them in a pipe (play complains if I try). I get a large audiodump.wav file but I want to play streaming mp3 (and eventually realaudio).

What can I do to play streaming mp3 or ram files without creating a very large audiodump.wav?
