But it might offer a way of extracting marker data from an audio file that contains such? Your bat file might need to examine aspects of the left & right files (perhaps via soxi or the stat/stats effects), eg checking (for the sake of sanity) that each file has the same number of samples, and perhaps approximately the same dynamic level. It might need to run other commands to extract marker data from both files and (say) check that those values are the same. Then it might want to use sox to merge the audio data. And then after that it might want to use some other tool to place the marker data back into the merged file. You shouldn't expect that all of this can be done in one step. -- Jeremy Nicoll - my opinions are my own ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Developer Access Program for Intel Xeon Phi Processors Access to Intel Xeon Phi processor-based developer platforms.
