Yes, I worked that out from some fiddling myself, but something is awry at my 
end as I only got either static or silence in the .ogg file.

I ended up just using vsound -t -d trplayer ......

and got a wav file, so I can burn that to CD

I've never had any luck trying to record/encode/play ogg files - seems to me 
it's all a biy flaky.
