Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] gettting Unhandled WAV chunk on scan
More info on the reported errors: DMC = DBPOWERAMP MUSIC CONVERTER BEXT = BROADCAST AUDIO EXTENSION CHUNK In 1997 the European Broadcast Union published the specification of the Broadcast Wave Format (BWF) for the seamless exchange of audio material between different broadcast environments and between equipment based on different computer platforms. BWF is essentially a WAV file with a Broadcast Audio Extension chunk () that can store metadata. CART = CART CHUNK Cart Chunk is a metadata format which was designed for WAV files used in the radio industry. It was formally ratified as a standard in 2002 by the Audio Engineering Society (AES) posnos's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=62955 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=106466 ___ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter
Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] gettting Unhandled WAV chunk on scan
so looking at the code, these errors relate to unknown tags that are in the WAV (or aiff files). Further investigation shows that for example, the 'DMC" reported errors relate to the dBpoweramp Music Converter. This makes sense in my case as I did convert a lot of flac files I got from HDTRACKS to WAV files so I guess DMC tagged these in a proprietary way that gets reported as Unknown by the WAV file parser called by LMS. So I can conclude, based on my testing and the above code, that these errors are benign (ie the library scan doesnt skip any files). Many thanks to myself for finding this out;) posnos's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=62955 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=106466 ___ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter
Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] gettting Unhandled WAV chunk on scan
Found a reference to the error on github in the project
https://github.com/jrmuizel/AudioScan-opus
The file ~/src/wav.c is used to scan WAV files and get their metadata
and this source code has the same error message format:
- else {
PerlIO_printf(PerlIO_stderr(), "Unhandled AIFF chunk %s size %d
(skipped)\n", chunk_id, chunk_size);
buffer_consume(buf, chunk_size);
}-
Looking at the readme for the project we see:
-AUTHORS
Andy Grundman,
Dan Sully,
COPYRIGHT AND LICENSE
Copyright (C) 2010 Logitech, Inc
-
So I guess its related to the scan retrieving the metadata for each
file.

d6jg wrote: > Do you have WAVs in your library? I actually have 31 aiff files (from early HDTRACKS downloads) and did notice I got "Unhandled AIFF chunk COMT size 26 (skipped)" messages as well as those WAV errors listed above. So I copied only these into a separate folder and re-ran a scan against them The ssh session returned 35 "Unhandled AIFF chunk COMT size 26 (skipped)" messages (4 more than the actual aiff files I have) If I browse inside LMS, I see all 31 aiff files and I have started playing the tracks without any issues. So I can conclude (at least for this small aiff test) that the files appear in LMS and play ok. Would still like to know what the issue means and whether I can 100% ignore it.

[SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] gettting Unhandled WAV chunk on scan
I just moved from windows to linux (Centos 6.8). I started LMS manually and while rescanning, my terminal session reported many messages of the type: Unhandled WAV chunk UITS size 1108 (skipped) Unhandled WAV chunk bext size 858 (skipped) Unhandled WAV chunk DMC size 16 (skipped) Unhandled WAV chunk cart size 2048 (skipped) Are these an issue?
