Support for BWF (Broadcast WAVE)? about wav2png

[beschulz]

Hey Eric,

can you provide me a short/small example file to reproduce the Problem?

Best,
Ben

I'm currently using this tool to process a lot of WAV files from different
sources. One of the problems it that our sources sometimes use BWF files.
This means the WAV has additional meta-data in the header. I believe this
tool is using libsndfile, but that library has support for BWF chunks in
the header.

The problem is: when I try to use the tool on a BWF file, I get:

Not a valid error number (-1).
Segmentation fault

If I try on normal WAV files, without the extra metadata, it works great.

My bad, I just noticed that wav2png was using the wrong libsndfile. I had a new version available in /usr/local/lib, and my old (CentOS5) version in /usr/lib. The old version does not support BWF, the newly compiled version does. The actual message (Not a valid number) came from libsndfile, so I guess it was a bug in the older library that is fixed.
