#97 WB problem V1.5.11 and beyond

[Anonymous]

    When I try updating from V1.5.10, the status bar starts a track with DSD and then switches to WV with variable bitrate.  Tried .17 latest with same results. V1.5.10 shows DSD.  What am I doing wrong?  Thanks.

You can do that:
1. Install the latest foo_input_sacd v1.5.18
2. Select in your playlist this WavPack file.
3. Check track Properties->Details. To be playable, the "Subsong index" parameter must be 0 for singletrack files. If it's 1, then remove this track from the playlist.
4. Add the track again and check that "Subsong index" is 0. If it's not, reload track info.
5. Try to play.

    Thanks.  Other than the bitrate varying instead of constant 5645 multiplied by X, it works.

WavPacks are VBRs, aren't they?

[Kevin Finerty]

    Probably right.  I just checked an uncompressed DSF file and it read 5645.  So, I guess things are working correctly, now.  Thanks again.

It shows what WavPack library gives as bitrate.
