Public bug reported:
the audio format for "SNDH Atari ST music" is checked by the string "ICE!"
But ICE is a file packer on the AtariST platform which can pack any data.
If you unpack the ICE format, you get the real SNDH file which can be
identified with
12 string SNDH uncompressed atari SNDH music file
If you want to keep the ICE! definition to say it's SNDH that's fine,
but please add SNDH uncompressed as I showed above.
One sugestions would be to add this, which works in 62% of cases for compressed
SNDH:
0 string ICE! atari ICE packed data
>14 search/40 NDH SNDH music file
>14 search/40 TITL SNDH music file
The second search is needed because ICE sometimes packes the NDH string
too well, but it still shows the TITL tag :-)
The rest 28% of files I found are very probably not in a proper SNDH
format. They are just compatible with the player but lack a proper
header. Others are packed *twice* with the ICE packer. For this I will
make a bug report to the maintainer of the SNDH files archive.
