[linux-audio-dev] libsndfile breakage

[james at dis-dot-dat.net]

Hi peeps,

   I've only just started playing with libsndfile, so I hope this
   isn't a dumb question.

   I get a segmentation fault when I try to use sf_readf_float on some
   wavs.  The odd thing is, if I re-save the file in the same format,
   (with something like audacity or sweep) it works.  I thought I must
   have been confused, and that the format was different the next time
   around, but it isn't - at least as far as libsndfile's SF_INFO can
   tell me.

   I don't think the file is broken, because audacity, sweep, mplayer,
   etc. can all load and play it without any complaint.

   And it's not just one file - it's quite a few of them.

   What am I doing wrong?

   I've packed up an example (small - just a kick) in working and
   broken form in case anyone wants to try it.  It's at

   Thanks for listening.
