I'm recording the realplayer streams off the beeb using
vsound
<http://ww
w.zorg.org/vsound/index.shtml>.  I've written a perl
wrapper
automating the recording, I'd like to set it up so that
checks to see if
the output file is truncated, has long silent gaps etc and
if has,  sleep
for an hour and has one more go. I mentioned pop and crackle
because it
would be fun to check and flag other distortions more manual
evaluation.

Audio:ata
looks like a much more interesting soluton than
Audio::FindChunks.  Thanks Andy!
