[vlc-devel] Listening to some .ra streams works, but dumping or transcoding fails!

[Steven Woolley]

In reply to myself, I tried it on the new 0.9.2 release, and the transcoded
audio is now playable, but the speed of the audio is sped up (same
commandline as below).  Do I need to mess around with:  --scaletempo-* or
somesuch?Steve
