#7047: Noisy AIFF audio files ------------------------------------+---------------------------- Reporter: humdinger | Owner: stippi Type: bug | Status: assigned Priority: normal | Milestone: R1 Component: Audio & Video/Codecs | Version: R1/Development Resolution: | Keywords: Blocked By: | Blocking: 7677, 7679 Has a Patch: 0 | Platform: All ------------------------------------+---------------------------- Comment (by Pete): Is anybody looking at this? I've found out exactly why AIFF files sound like white noise, anyway. The endianness of the samples is not recognized! AIFF data is always big-endian, but ffmpeg seems to be assuming they are little-endian. (AIFC files can be little-endian, and somewhere I read that these can sound like noise in a standard AIFF player, which led me to this realization.) After a bit of fiddling with sox, I generated an "AIFF" file with little- endian samples (attached), and MediaPlayer handles it just fine! Not sure where the fix now lies, but Ihope that's helpful. -- Ticket URL: <http://dev.haiku-os.org/ticket/7047#comment:15> Haiku <http://dev.haiku-os.org> Haiku - the operating system.
