WAV files do not play sound.

[a2aaron]

It appears that .wav files do not play sound, despite seemingly load correctly. ogg files do play correctly however.

Can you provide an example of a .wav file that doesn't work?

Thanks.

[icefoxen]

Is there some way you can provide a wav file that doesn't work? All the ones I've produced work fine on my machines.

Apologies on getting this back so late. I believe that 24-bit integer and 32-bit float encoded WAV files do not play properly. None of these will play in ggez however 16-bit int encoded WAV files do play.

The files were generated via either LMMS or Audacity and all of these files play in all of the music players I could test (Windows Music, Firefox, importing to Audacity, etc)

Upon further investigation, I think this is actually a bug in Rodio. Gonna close this and open one there.

Rodio will probably tell you it's a bug in hound, which is the crate that does the actual wav decoding. Good luck though!

...I do have to ask though, why are you bothering with wav instead of flac if you want lossless audio?

[a2aaron]

The main reason is that wav and ogg are the only export options in LMMS (I am using it for music and sfx purposes), and I wanted to just directly export without going through Audacity. I don't actually need lossless audio for my project.

Fair enough, I was just wondering. If it helps, ogg should work fine afaik.
