New submission from James Lee <j...@jbit.net>: http://svn.python.org/view/python/branches/py3k/Lib/sndhdr.py?r1=56957&r2=56987 seems to have broken sndhdr as it incorrectly detects files as voc (all that time ago and nobody has noticed...):
[j...@miku]~$ xxd test.wav | head -n 1 0000000: 5249 4646 2478 e001 5741 5645 666d 7420 RIFF$x..WAVEfmt [j...@miku]~$ python3.1 >>> import sndhdr >>> sndhdr.what("test.wav") ('voc', 0, 1, -1, 8) I'm a little unsure why it got changed from indexing to startswith() at all, but changes like the following are just totally incorrect. - if h[:20] != b'Creative Voice File\032': + if h.startswith(b'Creative Voice File\032'): Attached is a patch against the py3k branch which fixes the issue as well as some other things obviously broken by the same changelist, although it might be a good idea to review the changelist again to make sure there's nothing else obviously broken :) >>> sndhdr.what("test.wav") ('wav', 48000, 2, -1, 16) ---------- components: Library (Lib) files: sndhdr-fix.patch keywords: patch messages: 110172 nosy: jbit priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: sndhdr erroneously detects files as vox type: behavior versions: Python 3.1 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file17981/sndhdr-fix.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue9243> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
