GKrellMSS is a plugin for GKrellM that has a VU meter and a chart. The
VU meter displays left and right channel audio levels. The sound scope
chart draws combined left and right audio channels as an oscilloscope
trace. The trace sweep speeds are adjustable from 100 usec/div to 50
msec/div, and there is a vertical sensitivity adjustment. And of course,
since it's a scope, it's triggered.

Shorten reduces the size of waveform files (such as audio) using
Huffman coding of prediction residuals and optional additional
quantisation. It supports lossless and lossy modes.
xmms-shn provides playback support for shorten (.shn) files in XMMS.
Real-time seeking support is provided for .shn files that have
accompanying seek tables generated by shorten 3.x.
Disc-Cover creates front and back covers for audio CDs. The CD has
to be present in the CD-ROM drive, or alternatively a valid CDDB
file can be used. Disc-Cover searches the CDDB database for an
entry corresponding to the CD's CDDB ID. It starts by looking for
a local CDDB entry in ~/.cddb (or another directory pointed to by
your cddb installation). If no local CDDB entry matches the CD,
disc-cover continues to search the online CDDB databases or CDINDEX
databases as configured in the AudioCD library. It then formats
the entry to produce a Latex, Dvi, Postscript or PDF file, which
contains the front and back covers on a single page. Other formats
supported include a simple text output, a CDDB compatible format,
HTML and an output format that can be used with cdlabelgen
(http://www.red-bean.com/~bwf/software/cdlabelgen/), another cover
builder.

Tempest for Eliza is a program that uses your computer monitor to
send out AM short wave radio signals. You can then hear computer
generated music in your radio. It teaches you that your computer
can be observed. Tempest for Eliza works with every monitor,
every resolution.
Problem is, this breaks the definition of WRKDIR, whereas
we need separate WRKDIR for compilation with distinct flavors
to work.
-> only FULLPKGNAMEs need to be tweaked.
To be 100% correct, we actually probably should do
FULLPKGNAME=xmms-${VERSION}${FLAVOR_EXT:S/-no_esd//:S/-no_vorbis}
because at some point there might be hidden flavors...
MAD is a high-quality MPEG audio decoder. It currently supports
MPEG-1 as well as the MPEG-2 extension to Lower Sampling
Frequencies. All three audio layers (Layer I, Layer II, and Layer
III a.k.a. MP3) are fully implemented.
MAD does not yet support MPEG-2 multichannel audio (although it
should be backward compatible with such streams) or AAC, nor does
it support the so-called MPEG 2.5 format.
MAD has the following special features:
- 24-bit PCM output - 100% fixed-point (integer) computation -
completely new implementation based on the ISO/IEC standards -
distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License
(GPL)
The software is distributed as a library (libmad) and
command-line front-end (madplay).
WWW: http://mad.sourceforge.net/
After more than 2 months, this is an overdue release. There are a lot
of bugfixes and new features, see the distributed ChangeLog for details.
Main changes:
* The main new feature is that the OpenNap servers are now the default
for nap. The reason for this is that Napster Inc. has modified their
servers to use a new client auth scheme, which means that nap users
can no longer connect to their servers. Nap will automatically
download a list of available servers from napigator.com, and then
connect to the first available one.
* Nap's sourceforge page has been updated and now fully operational.
You are encouraged to use sourceforge's facilities for bug reports,
feature requests, etc.
closed after doing an eject, something which caused the
tray to never eject until the program closed and the fd
was closed that way.

id3ed is an interactive console interface for editing the id3 tags
found in mp3 files. It can also remove or just view tags.

* both encoder and decoder are significantly faster
* flac now has gzip-like command-line usage (should be more intuitive)
* the -# options have been tweaked for efficiency; -5 is the new default
* flac now autodetects WAVE input
* flac now ignores (with warning) unsupported WAVE subchunks
* new -o and --delete-input-file options
* new SEEKTABLE metadata block for storing seek points (speeds up seeking)

Grip is a front-end to external cd audio rippers (such as dagrab
or cdda2wav). It also provides an automated frontend for MP3 encoders,
letting you take a disc and transform it easily straight into MP3s.
The CDDB protocol is supported for retrieving track information
from disc database servers. Grip works with DigitalDJ to provide a
unified computerized version of your music collection.
- config files are moved to ~/.nap directory (old files are
automatically moved there for now)
- fixed several memory leaks, general code cleanup
reviewed by naddy@
Brief ChangeLog:
- In dynamically loaded user library code, prefix symbols with "_" on
a.out systems but not on ELF ones as naddy@ suggested.
- Made dynamically loaded user libraries support optional -- disabled
unless USERCMDS is defined.
- Fixed two segfaults and a curses positioning bug.

*) enable separate build, change version managing style
*) remove pkg/MESSAGE and unneded patches
*) better DESCR
*) bump NEED_VERSION
Brief Changelog:
- After asking you for the needed information, nap now creates the
.napconf file automatically. No sample distfile anymore.
- Added some keybindings for the main window.
- Fixed Ctrl-C so that it can break a nested loop; Ctrl-L so it really
redraws the whole screen from scratch.

There was a horrible bug in nap which prevented uploading at all, this
is a bugfix release. Upgrade is advisable.
Brief Changelog:
- Fixed id3v2 bug; all id3v2 files should now be sharable and
downloadable
- Additional control over what is displayed on the result screen.
Some command line parameters can be accessed internally now with the
commands /set, /unset, /pvars.
- md5 hashes are now calculated in the same way as the other clients.
from maintainer
- rename patches to new style.
- bye, bye USE_GMAKE, we have recursive variables now.
- pass COPTS through.
- a few more patches so that we get most prototypes
- integrate COMMENT
from maintainer
Brief Changelog:
- Pressing 'u' on an item at the search result list shows the nickname
of the user who's offering the item.
- Added item queueing and /forceq command to deal with stuck queue
items.
- /pdown shows the firewalled clients.
- Fixed "percentage completed" calculation in case of a "resume". It now
shows the percentage of the total file.
- Fixed bug in numbering of results if "/set noresultscreen 1"
xhippo interfaces to a wide gamut of programs, including video-only
stuff such as xanim. There's no reason I should have to install mpg123
on a machine without a soundcard to use xhippo to browse through videos.
The nap isn't really maintained by the real author anymore. Instead,
there is another project which aims to continue the original author's
idea. The new version is A LOT more stable, with various new fixes and
improvements.
The homepage is http://theory.stanford.edu/~selinger/nap/
Quick changelog with the main things:
- fixed a security bug (string format attack)
( http://www.shmoo.com/mail/bugtraq/sep00/msg00942.shtml )
- added --user, --pass, --email, --upload, --download, --dataport,
--connection, --maxusers options to override settings in config file.
- look for config and library files in user's home directory, rather
than current directory. Also, renamed these files more discreetly as
.napconf and .nap_shared.
- fixed several memory leaks and null pointer bugs.

flac is a free lossless audio codec. It does not compete with
MP3/OggVorbis, which are lossy compression schemes. Instead, flac
can be considered an equivalent to gzip/bzip2, optimized for audio
recordings (wav files).
+ add @dirrm's for share/gqmpeg/skins to conform with
gqmpeg Makefile (unbreak the port)
+ populate SKIN-SPECS in empty skins directory
+ README.plugin remains in doc/gqmpeg
(sorry rohee - i meant to update the port last night but you beat
me to it before I got to tell you the PLIST was broken.) -- this
is your original PLIST with my addition of README.plugin in doc
compressed bitstream into a more robust, useful form. For example,
the Ogg bitstream makes seeking, time stamping and error recovery
possible, as well as mixing several sepearate, concurrent media
streams into a single physical bitstream.
audio using a simple API on a wide variety of platforms. It currently
supports:
. * Null output
. * WAV files
. * OSS (Open Sound System)
. * ESD (ESounD or Enlighten Sound Daemon)
. * ALSA (Advanced Linux Sound Architecture)
. * Solaris (untested)
. * IRIX (untested)

originally written for windows.
Napster is a great tool for exploring and experiencing
artists and music you've never heard before, using protocol
for sharing MP3 files between users. With Napster, the files
stay on the user machine, never passing through the server.
The server has the ability to search for particular files,
initializing direct transfer between the clients.
