They play just fine in WMP but foobar only gives the error message "Unrecoverable playback error: Invalid audio stream specifications".
Please what could be causing this ?
TIA !
Full Version: WAV containing 2+ channels gives ERROR message.
Hi, how come that foobar won't play any WAV file that contains more than 2 channels ?

with my foobar i can play even 8chanels WAV's.
if it is possible, re-install foobar. looks like a codec mistake. can you say, what the console sys when you try to play/open the file?

same problems here
trying to convert a 6 channels 24-bit wave to 2 channels aac
have problem playing it with the latest version of foobar, 0.9.4.3
no problems playing it with foobar 0.8.3
here are the info of the error file
CODE
File Name : cd1.wav
File Path : G:\-\cd1.wav
Subsong Index : 0
File Size : 2 290 097 744 bytes
Last Modified : 2007-06-15 23:17:10
Duration : 44:10.576 (127227647 samples)
Sample Rate : 48000 Hz
Channels : 6
Bits Per Sample : 24
Bitrate : 6912 kbps
Codec : PCM
Encoding : lossless
Notice : None of the selected items are in the Media Library, their playback statistics are not collected.
in the end manage to convert it by going thru the following step
use foobar 0.8.3 to convert it to 2 channel 24-bit wave
then use 0.9.4.3 to convert it to nero aac file

ok after some more reading from this forum, i found this
It seems that Foobar does not like WAVE_FORMAT_EXTENSIBLE (0xFFFE) as format tag.
If you change it to PCM (0x0001) it plays OK.
The same issue is with conversion, so this should not be a output plugin bug.
so i use winhex and change the format tag, and the file play with version 0.9.4.3
so is it a bug with latest foobar?
