Actually, I'll bet you're really receiving kAudioConverterErr_FormatNotSupported ('fmt?'), and then casting it to an OSErr (which is a 16-bit value), right? 29759 == 0x743f == 't?'... Try getting the return code as an OSStatus, and print it as a long value.


mSampleRate=44100.0
mFormatID=lpcm
mFormatFlags=
  source:
         kLinearPCMFormatFlagIsSignedInteger |
         kLinearPCMFormatFlagIsBigEndian |
         kLinearPCMFormatFlagIsPacked;
  destination:
         kAudioFormatFlagIsNonInterleaved |
         kAudioFormatFlagIsPacked |
         kAudioFormatFlagIsBigEndian |
         kLinearPCMFormatFlagIsFloat
mBytesPerPacket=32
mFramesPerPacket=1
mBytesPerFrame=32
mChannelsPerFrame=8
mBitsPerChannel=32
mReserved=0

So, you're trying to convert 8-channels from a source that is 32-bit signed integer, interleaved to non-interleaved 32-bit float format, right?


If the destination is not interleaved, you need to set mBytesPerFrame (and thus mBytesPerPacket) to 4 (i.e. bytes per channel sample), not 32. You only multiple out by mChannelsPerFrame if you are doing interleaved.

Thus your destination format is not self-consistent, so the AudioConverter is returning kAudioConverterErr_FormatNotSupported.

All works fine when I remove the kAudioFormatFlagIsNonInterleaved flag
from the destination.

And this would make perfect sense, since for interleaved it should be 32, whereas for non-interleaved it should be 4.


I still suggest you use the proper type for receiving your return codes, though, as this will continue to be confusing for you in the future if you use a short to receive an OSStatus.

Hope this helps...
