[Live-devel] streaming WAV files...

[Ross Finlayson]

OK, I've now found and fixed the problem.

The problem was, indeed, byte-order related.  After reading the samples 
from the WAV file, I was converting them from 'host' to 'network' (i.e., 
big-endian) byte order before streaming them.  This was incorrect, because 
the samples are always stored in the file in little-endian order.  The 
correct thing to do was to convert them from little to big-endian order 
prior to streaming.

I have now installed a new version (2004.04.09) of the "LIVE.COM Streaming 
Media" code that fixes the problem.  "testWAVAudioStreamer" and 
"testOnDemandRTSPServer" should now stream WAV audio files correctly, even 
on big-endian machines (like the Mac).

Matt, thanks for bringing our attention to this problem.
