dubstep-data
The programs I wrote for the Encoding data in dubstep drops blog post: https://blog.benjojo.co.uk/post/encoding-data-into-dubstep-drops
Note this does not work on Windows machines at this point in time
Packages Required
- SoX (Sound Exchange) - Convert various formats of computer audio files to other formats. Also applies various effects to these sound files
sudo apt-get install sox
- Google Golang - Google's Go Language
sudo apt-get install golang- Note: You will need to set the GOPATH
- FFMPEG - Decode, encode, filter and play files
sudo apt-get install ffmpeg
How to run
- Note: If you have not set your GOPATH correctly, it will not be able to perform the
go getcommmands
Acquire repos:
go get github.com/dgryski/go-bitstream
go get github.com/benjojo/dubstep-data
Once they have downloaded, navigate to the 'github.com' folder. By default it can be found through the home/ directory
cd benjojo
cd dubstep-data
go env
go build
Once go has compiled the main file, you will need to edit the bash script 'prep-wav.sh'.
Change
./ASK-dubstep -input in.f64.data -data "$2"
to
./dubstep-data -input in.f64.data -data "$2"
This will be fixed at a later date.
./prep-wav.sh "*.wav" "`date`"
If you encounter an error with Sox, saying that the "filter frequency must be less than sample-rate / 2", this might be an indication that the wav file is corrupt or too small.
The script file will complete, creating new files, most importantly the 'encoded-bassline.wav'.
Move to the decode folder
cd decode
go build
ffmpeg -i ../encoded-bassline.wav -f f64le -ar 44100 -ac 1 -y in.f64.data
To show steganograph:
mkfifo sound
ffplay -f f64le -ar 44100 -ac 1 -i sound & cat in.f64.data | tee sound | ./decode -input /dev/stdin
Otherwise run cat in.f64.data | tee sound | ./decode -input /dev/stdin
To view the decoded message:
./decode
