No problem for me :D

Wav Pack has been updated again to 4.31.

The decoder has never (even the stable versions) worked for me: The file 'M:\- - E l e k t . r u - -\Бурундук Квартет — Пур-пур [2003]\Бурундук Квартет — Пур-пур [2003] [EAC+WV, CUE+LOG inside by djet].wv' could not be opened.

and the encoder crashes if I try Ogg to WV conversion.

>Бурундук Квартет — Пур-пур [2003]\Бурундук Квартет

Unicode characters, it will be dMC R12 before these can be read.

[djet]

But same with all other files:
The file 'E:\a.wv' could not be opened.
I tried reinstalling dMC & WV codec, but it didn't help. Maybe it uses short file names which are currently disabled?

[Spoon]

Check the files with another program, they might not be valid .wv files.

[djet]

They are all valid and some of them were converted to WV by dMC.

Edit:
Couldn't reproduce that decoding bug under VMWare, but an Ogg2WV conversion still crashes.

>The file 'E:\a.wv' could not be opened.

Which program is reporting this? If you take a normal wave file, convert to wavepack, then convert wavepack to wave, does that work?

[Spoon]

Updated to wavpack 4.3.1

Found the guilty. That was an old WavePack.dll inside the installation folder. I should wipe it out from the beginning..

Since this is a beta, which seems to work for me, I would add a suggestion for a missing wavpack feature.

Wavpack has an extra processing option, -x. It increases compression while not affecting the decode speed. While wavpack does have a 1-6 option for -x the author discourages its use since plain old -x selects an appropriate numeric level based upon the compression mode. fast, normal, high. So my suggestion would be for a simple check box for extra processing.

Now released from beta.
