salvage audio data from WAV files longer than 4G
SYNOPSIS¶
sndfile-salvage |
toolong.wav fixed64.wav |
DESCRIPTION¶
Audio files using the WAV file container are inherently limited to 4G of data
size fields in the WAV header being stored as unsigned 32bit integers. Many
applications have trouble with these WAV files that are more the 4G in size.
sndfile-salvage
rewrites the WAV file into a W64 file
with the same audio content. This file is overwritten if it already exists.
EXIT STATUS¶
The sndfile-salvage
utility exits 0 on success,
and >0 if an error occurs.
