here was a quick hack i put together for same issue, be sure to
back up your files beforehand! unix/linux only obviously ;-)
#
# sfoddfix - Sound File ODD size FIXer
#
# NOTE: flac v1.1.2 pukes on files that have an odd byte count, this pads them
files=${*:-*.wav}
for file in $files
do
size=$(stat --printf='%s' $file)
if [ $(($size%2)) -ne 0 ]; then
echo "size=$size"
echo "echo -e \"\\0377\\c\" >> $file"
echo -e "\0377\c" >> $file
fi
done
By the way, the padding that is required is only a single byte. All
WAV chunks, whether audio or not, must have an even number of bytes,
and be aligned to 16-bit word boundaries. This is only difficult
with 8-bit and 24-bit audio, and I assume you are recording at 24-
bit.
