I have a 2.9 MB MP3 file. Would like to use about the first 10%, to embed sound on a web page. The Packages I have in Applications > Sound & Video don't seem to be able to edit the file like that. Is there a Package I can get from a Yum Repository that will do that? Using CentOS 5.5 (32 bit). TIA!

Audacity should be able to handle that I believe.
Rpmforge carries it.

Yes, I can second that. Just load the mp3 file into audacity, select the part to cut, then save the remaining part of the file to a different name.

No offense to ffmpeg fans, but I'd go with Audacity - it's a first class GUI sound editor.

ditto. I second that motion. Peace, Allan

<snip> Thanks, to each of you, for taking the time to reply! I am going to get Audacity and try it with that. If that doesn't work for me, then I will get ffmpeg.

From rpmforge look for "cutmp3".
cutmp3 -i file.mp3 -a 0:37 -b 3:57 copies valid data from 0:37 to 3:57
So you could do:
cutmp3 -i infile.mp3 -a 0:00 -b 0:10
