Is this possible? I need to be able to watermark some audio offered on our site and would rather not encode it at a much lower resolution. Is there a way to add a beep every 10 seconds or something like that?

Thanks!

yeah, that would be the --ruin-encode-for-greedy-moneygrabbing-reasons switch

No, you can't do it with the encoder. You'd have to create/find a suitable beep sound and then merge it into your file with an audio editor.

I suppose you could create a program that automatically inserts or replaces frames of audio with frames of beeps. There are subtle things to worry about such as vbr timing (which is easily fixed) and the bit reservoir (probably not as easily fixed), but you're plainning on corrupting the tracks anyway...
