I think there is another major issue for me: In METADATA_BLOCK_STREAMINFO the field for the length is only 36 bit, that's not even half an hour at 40 MHz sample rate, resulting in that the encoder sets it to 0 for longer captures. In the seekpoint the sample number is 64 bit, which is more than enough. But how does the decoder handle the seektable when the total numb...

According to http://flac.sourceforge.net/format.html#metadata_block_streaminfo : "FLAC supports from 4 to 32 bits per sample. Currently the reference encoder and decoders only support up to 24 bits per sample. " This is why I'm confused. I though one of the benefits of FLAC was it's ability to encode in word lengths longer than 16 bits. MW -----Origi...

I am making a program to obtain information from FLAC files in Visual Basic. NET language. If somebody needs it I can send it. I can also translate it to C #. But I have read the documentation and I have looked for in sdk 1.2.2 and I don't find how to get the frames number of the file and the used compression level (5 default and others) Can somebody help me? Greetings. Santiago Jimeno

...frame headers not just point to streaminfo and it be specified in streaminfo as all 1s ie 2^20-1 = 1,048,575Hz? It would be really good to be able to use 1MHz and beyond for some of my/our work. Does anything currently support this? Regards Graham Extracts from https://xiph.org/flac/format.html METADATA_BLOCK_STREAMINFO <20> Sample rate in Hz. Though 20 bits are available, the maximum sample rate is limited by the structure of frame headers to 655350Hz. Also, a value of 0 is invalid.

...nly implement the Flac subset will not be able to play the resulting file. However, I'm confused that it says that it will not be streamable. I would have thought a file is streamable as long as all information needed for decoding is contained in each frame header rather than just in the METADATA_BLOCK_STREAMINFO at the beginning. When encoded with --lax, I've checked that the resulting binary flac file does indeed place the sample rate in each frame header. It does so via the extension to have 'unusual' sample rates at end of the header. In this case the sample rate field is 0b1110 (0xE)...

...FLAC specification needs to allow for this. The Microsoft specification can be viewed at: http://www.ambisonia.com/Members/mleese/file-formats/multichaud.pdf/view The underlying problem is that FLAC has got itself into a mess over channel assignments. The number of channels is specified in the METADATA_BLOCK_STREAMINFO, but using only three bits. (Three bits is insufficient for the channel assignment, even though this information is STREAMINFO.) The number of channels is repeated in the FRAME_HEADER, this time using four bits. It appears that these four bits were then used to specify the channel assignment. T...

Hello! I'm implementing custom flac metadata parser. Currently the very big trouble is to parse StreamInfo metadata block. According to specifications (http://flac.sourceforge.net/format.html#metadata_block_streaminfo) we've got 2 bytes fir minBlockSize, 2 bytes for maxBlock size, 3 + 3 bytes for min/max FrameSize. Now the interesting point -- sampleRate. number of channels, buts per sample and total samples in stream. 20 + 3 + 5 + 36 == 64 bits == 8 bytes. To parse sample rate I take 3 bytes then reverse...

Hello - I am new to the list and new to FLAC and I have an encoding question. I am using Goldwave to create a file which is 32 bits, signed, little endian. I am doing this to avoid the added step of converting from 16-bit samples to 32-bit samples. All works well except that encoding a sine wave does not output an exact replica of the sine wave -- far from it. When I encode a 16-bit sine

...ckTicks` (which is similar to how local components have been named and referenced in the FFV1 and Matroska documents). Thus “METADATA_BLOCK_HEADER” would be `Metadata Block Header` and expressed with that same case and quoting at each reference. I also suggest that the metadata block types such as “METADATA_BLOCK_STREAMINFO” and “METADATA_BLOCK_APPLICATION” simply be renamed as `Streaminfo Block` and `Application Block` and that each of those components be defined as being a `Metadata Block`. I may send a pull request for this soon but wanted to ask around in case there’s some reason for or advantage of the ALL_CAPS_...

I believe you can do this with Ogg FLAC. The Ogg container manages the multiple FLAC streams. Theoretically, we'll never see limit

As far as I know, that is not limited to 32-bit in the format itself, only in the implementation. However, there are two residual coding methods now: rice and rice2. rice2 was added
