Hello,

ecasound can automatically invoke such programs (ogg123) for you. So you type:

ecasound -i some_file.ogg

and get it to play.

If you want more than 1 file, you must use chains. Like so:

ecasound -a 1 -i some_file.ogg \
-a 2 -i other_file.ogg \
-a 1,2 -o /dev/dsp

The -o option specifies the output device (which in this case is OSS blockdevice).
