this is reported a lot.  usually it is a misunderstanding in how
to send samples to FLAC__stream_encoder_process() or
FLAC__stream_encoder_process_interleaved().  if you could send
your code where you are doing that, it would help.

note that samples going in to the process calls must be converted
to signed 32-bit integers (this is lossless) regardless of the
initial format.  see also:
http://flac.sourceforge.net/api/group__flac__stream__encoder.html#ga63

from your description it sounds like you might be sending packed
16-bit samples somehow which could cause every other sample to get
encoded.

OK, now I'm totally stumped.

I can confirm that I'm sending the encoder 32-bit signed integers, and that they are correctly representing the original file. I still get a silent file.

I tried making the resulting integers forcibly little-endian, and I got a FLAC file result that sounded like what a byte-reversal might sound like - noisy when there's data, but 0 is 0. I've heard it before, I recognize it...

But why when I send it *correctly* to the encoder do I get silence?

Another clue is that they see to be super-small files, but with the proper length.
