I'm having an odd problem with AIFF files exported from DoggieBox. Though they open and play fine in QT player, I can't seem to open them in Deck (via "Add sound to library"). I am able to access them in Deck if I first open and re-save the file in Amadeus II, even though I leave the format (44.1 Khz, 16 bit) the same.
One difference I notice is that in Finder, the DB output's "Kind" is shown as "AIFC Audio", where Amadeus's is "Audio IFF Document". Do you know what the distinction is?
Hi Lee, and others, Following up on this... are you still having this behaviour with DB 1.0.1? I just tried exporting the demo song, using the default settings (AIFF, signed 16 bit), and the finder info describes it as "AIFF Audio File" -- not what I was expecting! Indeed, doing a dump of the file shows it is saving as a FORM AIFF, not an AIFC. Now, this is on my iBook with 10.2.4. I will be able to test this again on my G4 system when I am back tomorrow, but I don't expect the result to be different. Having said that, I was pretty sure from before that I too was seeing "AIFC Audio" in the finder description. So has this fixed itself, or is something still amiss? :) -ben -- Ben Kennedy, chief magician zygoat creative technical services 613-228-3392 | 1-866-466-4628 http://www.zygoat.ca
