play ogg file from Ruby (on windows)

[Chris Pine]

Hello,

Just wondering if anyone has managed to play ogg files from Ruby? I'm
not looking for much, just the ability to do something like this:

puts 'Playing a song...'
ogg_play 'song.ogg'
puts 'Done playing that song.'

So ogg_play would just play the song, and return when the song is done.

Anyone done anything like this?

Chris

Sorry, but I meant to say "on Windows". (Well, I did say that in the
subject, but forgot to say it in the message.

Frow what I can tell, those will only work on machines with /dev/dsp, right?

Thanks, though,

Chris

Yeah, but again, I'm looking for something on Windows.
