Yep, that's the bad news, you need an ID from Microsoft to make sure this ID is only used for FLAC. But since it's a 16 bits value, you can probably put anything randomly (only few are reserved). And I don't think it's illegal to use a number like that. Ingo Ralf Blum wrote: >>WAVEFORMATEX >>yes, that's the way to know what the codec does. >>But no

Hi, >That's what I wanted to say a month ago. Mr. Blum, I'm really sorry for misunderstanding you. My mistake. I choose an ACM codec because it's the only option that works on every Windows Platform, and since the DirectShow has a generic wrapper that allows it to use ACM codecs, it appeared a good idea. I didn't note that the file format was going to be a problem. But I think

The commit http://git.xiph.org/?p=flac.git;a=commitdiff;h=99257e177eac96fa41a107b423080232f59ebe45 also requires some changes in write_iff_headers() function: currently flac don't write WAVEFORMATEXTENSIBLE header if decoder_session->channel_mask is equal to 0, 1 or 3. After the commit 99257e17 flac should do this for channel_mask equal to 0, 4 or 3. The patch fixes this.

At the risk of throwing more fuel on the fire, I found the following document on the Microsoft website. It appears to be the file format counterpart to the API documentation presented by Chris Wolf. I'm not familiar with the WAVE format, so I'll let you guys interpret it (or tell me it is irrelevant): http://www.microsoft.com/HWDEV/audio/multichaud.htm [As an aside: Why does Microsoft

A friend of mine recently had a problem with a "broken" .WAV file (as you call them) because oggenc first printed out a warning and then didn't accept the file because of a "unexpected EOF error". Because I was interested in the issue, I decided to take a look at the oggenc source, and in fact, it is your .WAV reader that's wrong. More precisely: there are two version

HI Josh, I'm starting now to compile the ACM codec. I don't know how long it will take, since I do it in my free time, but I guess it will not take to long. About Mark Powell's comment, with an ACM codec there will be a lot of Windows GUIs for FLAC. I'm writing this message to talk about the FLAC format. The GUIs for the Audio Codec Manager, including Winamp and Windows Media

Hi, Is there a defined format tag for Opus that should be used with the WAVEFORMATEX structure? See wFormatTag (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/dd390970.aspx). /John

Hi, As a potential user of the Speex ACMs and DirectShow filters to come I am also curious about how many ACM codecs for Speex there are under development right now. Also, the WAVEFORMATEX structure must be planned so that it is extensible, with backward-compatibility, without having to ring back Microsoft for further WAVE_FORMAT tags. For instance, it is a good idea to put a flexible sub-format

Prior to having your ACM codec, I was manually compressing Speex audio and writing it into one stream of an AVI file. To be able to use your codec for playback, I simply appended your WAVEFORMATEX extra data (the extra fields in SPEEXWAVEFORMAT) to the audio format. In looking at your code trying to determine how to fill in that data, it looked like the fmtnotice was optional. Is this truly the

Hi Guys, I've just faced a wrong warning trying to encode a 24 bits WAV file if(wFormatTag == 1) { if(bps != 8 && bps != 16) { if(bps == 24 || bps == 32) { /* let these slide with a warning since they're unambiguous */ flac__utils_printf(stderr, 1, "%s: WARNING: legacy WAVE file has

Christian, I have successfully integrated your ACM codec in our applications, but I have run into one minor issue. In a code comment you imply that fmtnotice is an optional part of the WAVEFORMATEX extra data. I tried to play a file that had no fmtnotice but Windows did not recognize it as valid and did not play the audio. Your work is very much appreciated here and we are anxiously awaiting

does there exist anywhere a useful source version of an ACM for vorbis audio? I've seen the binary one somewhere in Japan, and there's an abandoned project at SourceForge, but I'm having a helluva time building it. I know all the caveats about CBR vs. VBR, ACM/AVI problems etc. but I need it anyway. Thanks in advance - ___ Dan Miller (++,) Founder, CTO, On2.com --- >8 ----

I have arranged for an official Speex ACM format tag from Microsoft (see below). Feel free to use this in any ACM codec work.

The IETF passed the application/ogg MIME type some days ago. I couldn't bring you the news earlier because of the MS SQL worm that has been wreaking havoc all over my local networks. The IETF wants some clarifications in Silivias draft for the Ogg stream format, but apart from that I think it will also be passed soon. The RFC and IANA registration of this mimetype will probably be published
