>From memory the problem was really one of consistency. I forget the exact details of this but I seem to remember that 24->16 bits was handled as above, but 8->16 bit aligned on the least significant bit. I suggest that you forget libsndfile version 0 for new stuff. The first real release of version 1 should be out really soon. It would have been out two weeks ago but compiling on Win32 and MacOSX was broken and I wanted to fix it before release. Anyway, today I took possession of an iBook (which will run MacOS 9, OSX and Linux) and I also have just ontained access to a Win32 machine so stuff should be sorted out really soon.
