>Description:
Hi,
When I was learning to use burncd, it forced a question to freebsd-questions,
to save other people time the man page could be updated with this information.
Currently, if you are burning a data cd, there is a comment at the end of
the man page explaining that the data track must be made using a port called
mkisofs. I assumed the audio format must be in wav, because there is no such
comment for audio tracks. Using wav format does not work.
	
>How-To-Repeat:
Get a new person to try and burn an audio cd (:
	
>Fix:
A possible ammendment to the last paragraph in the EXAMPLES section could be:

  Audio tracks are assumed to be in raw format. The utility CopyAudio(1) which
  is found in the 'afsp' port can be used to do this.

I suggest that language, because the man page sates almost the exact same thing
when detailing how to make iso format files. Hope this helps.
	


>Release-Note:
>Audit-Trail:

 From the manual page:
 
 raw | audio   Set the write mode to produce audio (raw mode) tracks for
                    the following images on the command line.
 
 From the Handbook:
 
 You have to use raw PCM with  burncd(8). If you use WAV files, you will
 notice a small tick sound at the beginning of each track, this sound is
 the header of the WAV file. You can simply remove the header of a WAV
 file with the utility SoX (it can be installed from the  audio/sox port
 or package):
 
     % sox -t wav -r 44100 -s -w -c 2 track.wav track.raw

 SoX is given as example in the Handbook, and also dd(1) for duplicating
 audio cd
 (http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/creating-cds.html)
 
 Perhaps burncd(8) should be more explicit, I think Soren is the right
 person to take care of this.

 I'll leave all text of previous posts in for Soren's benefit
 
 I think I searched for 'burncd' on www.freebsd.org and didnt find anything
 useful, so hadn't read the handbook, the place i found help was on google,
 thats why I found that 'CopyAudio' command.
 
 You are right, i probably should have picked up that you need to convert wav
 files.. but i didnt (:  I thought perhaps because it had a specific direction
 to where to look to find out how to make iso format images, it might be a
 good idea to do that for wav.
 
 If you guys dont think it needs to be thats fine (: just trying to be hel=
 pful.
 
 Best Regards,
 Jacob

State-Changed-Why:  
The handbook along with burncd.1 seems to cover burning CDs extensively, 
there should be no reason to include mention of every port which can assist 
in this process.  Thanks for the submission!
