    Converting ape to wav

    I converted wav to ape, and this ape to wav.
    Created wav file is 2byte bigger than original wav file.
    This wav file header is 46byte...?
    Is this bug?
    If this is bug, I wish modify in next version.
    Thank you.

    Have a look at these threads

    I downloaded DBpower AMP Music Converter & flac codec. When I decode some flac files to wavs they decode OK and play OK but they fail the md5 test. If I use another flac decoder they decode fine and pass the md5 test. Both file sizes are the same. Unfortunately I have had to uninstall DBpower AMP Music Converter now and


    and

    Whenever I convert a file to wav format, there are 2 extra bytes of 0 in the header section: the 21st and 22nd bytes. According to wav format spec, these two bytes are not needed. If I open the file with CoolEdit and save it right back, the 2 bytes are removed. Also if I do WAV->FLAC->WAV, the last file is not


    With explanation of the reason why you get 2 bytes more. Suffice to say that the WAV data itself is untouched.

      Release 10 doesn't add that extra 2 bytes.

        Thanks RossRoy and Spoon.

        Oh, this is WAVEFORMATEX.
        I didn't know.
        But I am glad to hear Release 10.
        I am looking forward to Release 10.
