convert wav to ogg twice produces diffrent binary files

convert wav to ogg twice produces diffrent binary files

[Dennis Muratshin]

for example run these commands:

sox.exe src.wav dest1.ogg -G rate 44100
sox.exe src.wav dest2.ogg -G rate 44100

It will produce two files with small difference between them:

Is there any way to avoid it?

It could be due to dither.  Try the -R option to use a fixed seed for
the random number generator.

It's hard to tell from the screenshot how big the files are... but they
look as if they might be tiny.  The line 1 difference might I guess be
a date/time stamp, if the file format allows that.

Then ... do we have just one or two 'frames' (if that's an appropriate
term) of audio?  Might they also have a date/time stamp in them?

I'd have thought a dither difference would affect many bytes in the 
audio
stream, but then again maybe that depends on what the audio in the file
actually is - silence, test tones, real music?

Thank you! '-R' option helped. Now files are identical:

sox -R src.wav dest1.ogg -G rate 44100
sox -R src.wav dest1.ogg -G rate 44100
