Supported audio formats (looking for APE)
Submitted by phoenix on Fri, 2006-02-03 23:58
I was looking in moc for APE (MonkeyAudio) support, but it seems that this format is no supported. If i am wrong please let me know. If this format is not supported, are there any plans to put support for it to mocp ?.
There are plans, but I don't
There are plans, but I don't know when. Maybe someone else do this?

I updated my ffmpeg libs and realized that there is now support for playing APE files via ffplay.
It seems that MOCs ffmpeg-decoder can be used to playback APE files by just adding this filetype to its known formats.
This worked on my machine - there is definitely some investigation to do as to find out how to check in MOC's configuration whether the ffmpeg-libs on the machine support APE...
But using ffmpeg seems to way to go...
Just my two cent.

patch to play .ape via ffmpeg
Thanks for the patch.
I edited ffmpeg.c manually since aac is moved to a separate plugin in the latest svn revision.
But it works like a charm :-)

Maybe you can use mac-port
Maybe you can use mac-port to decompress APE files (i don't know if it is possible on the fly).

Is there any chance to make moc to play ape files, that would be a really nice feature, not many players under linux and especially console players are able to play them.
Playing ape using cuebreakpoints and shnsplit
I can't play ape file but i can play flac, so here is what i do :
cuebreakpoints sample.cue | shnsplit -o flac sample.ape
this commands splits the ape file and produces flac files
cuebreakpoints sample.cue | shnsplit -n name -o flac sample.ape
this one does the same but names the flac files
