Are there some (old) programs that will not accept WAVEX headers? I'm trying to think of why the flac utility worked this way in the first place.
In any event, it seems like it would be prudent to add a command line option to preserve the existing behavior, just in case anyone has archived their audio using FLAC and would need to maintain compatibil...

Yes there is. To avoid this wanring the it should have a WAVE_FORMATEXTENSIBLE
wFormatTag. Its trivally easy to convert your legacy format file to
WAVEX using the sndfile-convert program that is part of

warning that legacy WAVE file has format type 1 but bits-per-sample is 24
Hello,
I've tried encoding a FLAC file from a WAVE file saved with
24-bits-per-sample, using the flac executable. I get this warning:
WARNING: legacy WAVE file has format type 1 but bits-per-sample=24
The code is currently here on line 373:
src/flac/encode.c
where the comment says
let these slide with a warning since they're unambiguous
I do not really understand the warning

Define 6.1 and 7.1 channel mappings
...hough being unfamiliar with it, I have no idea what this really means
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
One of the main issues, IMO: the different sets of channel labels in use for "surround" channels.
First, there are the WAVEX channel labels:
- back left (BL)
- back right (BR)
- back center (BC)
- side left (SL)
- side right (SR)
And then, the ones typically used by commercial 6.1/7.1 capable codecs:
- left surround (Ls)
- right surround (Rs)
- center surround (Cs)
- rear surround left (Rls)
- re...
