Full Version: Riff audio problem

Hope someone can help me please.
I have a few audio files that have been encoded a way that I can't play ot decode them.

They look like normal wave files but are infact I believe riff format.

Details of one.
RIFF 'WAVE' (wave file)
<fmt > (format description)
Microsoft ADPCM format
2 channel
22050 frames per sec
88200 bytes per sec
4 bytes per frame
16 bits per sample
<data> (waveform data - 4072933 bytes)
<ump3> (8 bytes)
"····l":·"
(0,0,0,0,108,34,58,0)


I would really like to be able to play these files and convert them to a nornal wav/mp3 format.

Been looking though this forum for help but could only find RiffStrip, which did strip the file, made it a bit smaller and left me with a .stripped file which I don't know what to do with it.

Please can someone help me with this problem?
Cheers

All wav files are in riff format. Riff is a container that can contain different types of audio data. An "ordinary" wav-file has PCM data inside.

Your riff container seem to contain audio data in "Microsoft ADPCM" format. To play them you need a codec that can handle that format. Windows used to have that, I believe... Maybe your files are broken?

I've tried a lot of ways to play these files (Windows, Mp3 Player,) but nothing will.
Also tried putting the adpcm codecs on again from here

ADPCM INSTALLING

but sadly still no joy, hope someone can help me.
