Error when parsing wav file

Hey,

I've got a wav file that throws this error.

stdout: Error: expected file identifier 'ID3' not found

I can send you the file if necessary.

One more, from a different file

Hey Paul.
It is hard to cure the patient if she is not present.
Can you please provide the file?

[IrosTheBeggar]

First file:
got it

Second file:
got it

[Borewit]

The first file has a strange RIFF/EXIF tag 'GNR\u0001':

------[exif]------
{ IART: [ 'Shooting party' ],
  'GNR\u0001': [ '' ],
  INAM: [ 'Show me the way to your heart' ],
  ICRD: [ '1990' ] }

The '\u0001' is considered to be illegal (for good or bad reasons), causing the exception

The second file has an ID3 chunk defined, which is normally used for ID3v2 header. The header identifier is set to TAG instead usual ID3. I suspect one managed to squeeze an ID3v1 header in. ID3v1 header are typically the last 128 bytes of an audio file, I have never seen them in the middle of a file.

Thanks for looking into this!

[Borewit]

No problem Paul, I will close the issue.

Maybe useful to return an indication what is wrong: #60
