I wondered about that. It has played just fine in the past on multiple machines and programs including cmus. I understand that RIFF is a container format that can hold MPEG/3 and PCM data. $ xxd ~/tmp/music/under-dog-theme.wav | head -3 0000000: 5249 4646 ba4d 0100 5741 5645 666d 7420 RIFF.M..WAVEfmt 0000010: 1e00 0000 5500 0100 112b 0000 c409 0000 ....U....+...... 0000020: 0100 0000 0c00 0100 0200 0000 0401 0200 ................ which is clearly RIFF rather than MP3. At your nudging, a quick renaming it to .mp3 works without crashing. So there appear to be two related issues: 1) a file with a .wav extension can apparently be a RIFF file containing MPEG/3 data 2) cmus can segfault on data it doesn't understand rather than gracefully logging/ignoring the problem file So this is would no longer be "important" priority since the footprint of the bug is far smaller; rather it's just "normal" priority as it seems to be a narrow edge case (I'm insufficiently familiar with BTS, but I *think* I managed to change this in a previous email to control@). -Tim _______________________________________________ pkg-multimedia-maintainers mailing list pkg-multimedia-maintainers@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pkg-multimedia-maintainers
