Now I just wish that I could find a command-line encoder that I could do the same thing with for transferring those speeded-up tempo's to my mp3 player (ipod, creative player etc). So far I see audacity CAN do it...but no commandline support. Several old audio manipulation programs that can do it...but nothing command-line driven. Searches for "fast" and "increase speed" always give results relating to the speed it takes to ENCODE the mp3, and not the adjusting of the speed playback. After much stumbling around I found some other keyword searches like "tempo" but there's only a limited result from that too. Anyone else have something out there? Any info appreciated (drop me an E-mail too would be much appreciated) Thanks, David Troesch I found that early on when listening to podcasts on my computer and love it.
