That file is not audio file, this is what file reported: onemoretime-onemorechance.wv: PE32 executable (console) Intel 80386, for MS Windows, UPX compressed Inspecting data in hex editor is looks like exectuable stuff was put at begining of wv data. If this is not some kind of trojan/virus than its probably feature that allows to auto decompress wv files on sytems without wavpack decoder. > > Regards, > > Cyril APAN. > _______________________________________________ Libav-user mailing list [email protected] http://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/libav-user
