multiple qprocess arguments

I am invoking a linux system process using QProcess. The process works, but when I supply more arguments than the three prescribed arguments it gives an error.

sox.start("sox", infile.wav -c 1 outfile.wav remix 0 1);

How can I make it accept my last argument "remix 0 1"?

Code:

---

#include <QtGui>
#include <QApplication>
 
int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
   QApplication app(argc, argv);
 
   QProcess sox;            //instantiate the process****
   QStringList args1;       //declare arguments
   args1 << "infile.wav";   //collect arguments to be envoked with qprocess
   args1 << "-c 1";         //collect arguments to be envoked with qprocess
   args1 << "outfile.wav";  //collect arguments to be envoked with qprocess
   //args1 << "remix 0 1";  //collect arguments to be envoked with qprocess
 
   sox.start("sox", args1); //pass qprocess and arguments to start method
   QByteArray output;       //understood by QString
   while(sox.waitForReadyRead())
      output += sox.readAll();
qDebug() << "sox" << args1;
}

What it is "it gives an error" ? What error ?

Are you sure that "remix 0 1" is a single argument?
Would you pass that quoted on the shell?

My guess is that these are actually three arguments

Code:

---

QStringList args1;
   args1 << "infile.wav";
   args1 << "-c";
   args1 << "1";
   args1 << "outfile.wav";
   args1 << "remix";
   args1 << "0";
   args1 << "1";

---

or

Code:

---

QStringList args1;
args1 << "infile.wav" << "-c" << "1" << "outfile.wav" << "remixe" << "0" << "1";

---

Rule of thumb: any space on the commandline starts a new argument, unless it is escaped or quoted.

apologies for not posting correctly.

When the system process is called by QProcess it does not produce any result, however when it is entered on a terminal it works. Here is the complete command:

sox infile.wav -c 1 outfile.wav remix 0 1

As anda_skoa said : You have 7 args not 3.
