Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: None Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Chaz (cgwenapp) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: output file incorrect when using pipe Initial Comment: mp3 to wav conversion while using piping to output instead of writing to file doesn't work as expected How to reproduce error: $: sox Slipknot\ -\ Psychosocial.mp3 -t wav psychosocial2.wav $: sox Slipknot\ -\ Psychosocial.mp3 -t wav - | cat > psychosocial.wav $: diff psychosocial.wav psychosocial2.wav Binary files psychosocial.wav and psychosocial2.wav differ This should replicate with most mp3 files. Investigating with a hex editor, it appears certain bytes which should be output as "6E" get output as "80" when piped (there may be others, that is the one which manifested first in my file). I suspect this is actually "FFFFFF80" being output as "80", with the outputs being the wrong types, but haven't confirmed. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=110706&aid=3582634&group_id=10706 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ LogMeIn Central: Instant, anywhere, Remote PC access and management.
