Rockbox

Playing an AIFF track recorded using Garage Band on an iMac using Snow Leapoard 10.6.4 in Rockbox Daily Build 23-Jul-2010 r27530-100723) fails.

I have a new iMac computer. I recorded a short tape using the Line In on the Mac. This was recorded using Garage Band and output to an AIFF File with bit-rate of 1411kbps and 16-bit Stereo Sample rate 44,100kHz. These numbers are identical to WAV files I have recorded on Windows XP before. iTunes reports the bit rate as 1411kbps and finder "Get Info" reports it as : 1,411,200. That last figure is is bits. I was able to write this track to CD successfully using Garage Band. This file that I tried to play on Rockbox was the direct recording from Garage Band. I also downloaded Audacity to try that. The WAV test track from Audacity played.

I tried this on Rockbox 3.6. I have now downloaded todays latest build 23-Jul-2010 (r27530-100723) and it still isn't playing.

In the following forum post http://forums.rockbox.org/index.php?topic=25240.0 Saratoga suggested I provide a test recording using Flyspray since the forums won't allow you to send large files.

Here is a test recording that won't play in the current build of Rockbox (23-Jul-2010).
