Vorbis - Oct 2009 - flac in xiphqt seemengly behaves incorrectly playing 24bit files

Hello,

upon installing flac1.2.1 and xiphqt0.1.9 component on a mac, 24bit  
flac files, whose integrity has been proven and which otherwise decode  
and reproduce flawlessly, play in quicktime player with wrong volume,  
i.e exactly 2^8 = 256 times too loud.

I guess, the appropriate amplitude scaling routine might have been  
accidentally omitted somewhere in the code.
In case this issue goes beyond your concern, please be so kind to  
report the problem to whomever it may concern.

Hardware: MBP
OS: 10.5.6
QT: 7.6 (472) Pro
FLAC: 1.2.1
XiphQT.component: 0.1.9

Thanks in advance,

Regards,
SJ

Hello Stanko,

I've entered your bug into Trac against XiphQT as ticket #1670 and put
you on the Cc: for the bug discussion.  Thanks for reporting the
problem!  I don't have an immediate answer but hopefully Arek or
another of the XiphQT devs will see it soon.
