lvqcl,

Would you be able to have alook at this one? I think its
Windows related:

    https://sourceforge.net/p/flac/feature-requests/114/


The relevant changes are
<http://git.xiph.org/?p=flac.git;a=commitdiff;h=6a6207b52a86b1d7980a5233e297c0fc948bed7d>
 and
<http://git.xiph.org/?p=flac.git;a=commitdiff;h=e8632477774f56b4fe7ccab525cad2ceab244b8a>

the current code:

#ifdef _WIN32
    /*
     * Windows can suffer quite badly from disk fragmentation. This can be
     * reduced significantly by setting the output buffer size to be 10MB.
     */
    setvbuf(file, NULL, _IOFBF, 10*1024*1024);
#endif

The commit mentioned in the feature request should not cause such
behaviour, as it only does short-lived operations (opens a file, does
stuff, closes the file immediately after) and is clearly distinguishing
between disk files and pipes (which is how you, presumably, stream data to
other processes for whatever reasons).

I don't claim that FLAC doesn't do buffering, as the OP described, just
that this commit is unlikely to be the cause.

Maybe you mean some other commit? For example,
<http://git.xiph.org/?p=flac.git;a=commitdiff;h=d66f6754bf94bc8ba23d3579d0b5650cd380c9f0>
 ?
Because setvbuf() should definitely change libFLAC behaviour regardless of 
files/pipes/etc.


The attached patch *should* resolve the issue. libFLAC will call setvbuf(file, 
...)
only if GetFileType(...file...) == FILE_TYPE_DISK.

Attachment: buffering.patch
Description: Binary data
