Hi,
in current CVS wavparse and wavenc don't handle audio/x-raw-int files with
width!=depth correctly.

Our own representation of such samples has the lowest $depth bits set while wav
expects the highest $depth bits to be set. So every sample should be shifted by
"width-depth" to the left before writing/after reading.


http://www-mmsp.ece.mcgill.ca/Documents/AudioFormats/WAVE/Samples.html

contains a sample file. For wavenc just try to open a file with width!=depth in
audacity :)


Bye
