If you know any work around, please let me know because this is by far one of the coolest KUAL extensions I've seen in a while!

P.S.(I know that there is new Python version that works on HF but it was tested on a GEN 11 and does not work for me)
I assume that the problem is that the sox binaries and libraries provided with the package would need to be replaced with HF versions for this to work for you. Thus a separate HF package is needed.

I put together the original package by downloading sox and all its dependencies from a Raspberry Pi repository with the same architecture and kernel release as the current Kindle. Assuming that you have installed USBNetlite and can ssh into your Kindle please let me know the results of the
"uname -a" command. Alternatively you can run this in kterm or any other access you may have to a Linux terminal window on your Kindle. It might also be useful to see what messages you get in a terminal window by entering the command line used in the KUAL configuration for sox. It might show if the problem is the sox binary or one of its dependencies.

It will take some time to put together and as I don't have a Kindle with HF firmware I would not be able to test it myself. It might make sense for me to start a separate topic when i gets to that point so that those with the HF firmware can do so and report their problems.
