Hi Doug,

please s.b.

The data format you're supplying for the file is incompatible with
the file format.  For WAVE you probably want a little-endian 8, 16,
or 24-bit linear PCM format.

I tried to set this in order to write out an AIFF file but it still doesn't work. If I fill in the AudioStreamBasicDescription as follows

	theFormat.mChannelsPerFrame	= 2;
	theFormat.mSampleRate			= 44100.0;
	theFormat.mFormatID			= kAudioFormatLinearPCM;
	theFormat.mFormatFlags			= kLinearPCMFormatFlagsAreAllClear |
kAudioFormatFlagIsPacked | kAudioFormatFlagIsBigEndian;
	theFormat.mBitsPerChannel		= sizeof(short int) * 8;
	theFormat.mBytesPerFrame		= theFormat.mChannelsPerFrame *
theFormat.mBitsPerChannel / 8;
	theFormat.mFramesPerPacket		= 1;
	theFormat.mBytesPerPacket		= theFormat.mBytesPerFrame *
theFormat.mFramesPerPacket;

then the call to ExtAudioFileCreateNew succeeds but then
ExtAudioFileSetProperty in DCAudioFileRecorder::ConfigureOutputFile
fails. I am using the code without change, except for trying AIFF
instead of MP4 AAC.

I don't get it... how do I have to fill in the
AudioStreamBasicDescription to write a 16bit integer AIFF file, 2
channels @ 44.1kHz?? Could you let us know what I have to change to
write AIFF instead of MP4?

See my earlier message today for examples of how to determine the
compatible data formats for a given file format.

I will but that's a lot of stuff to take in... more than I really wanted to know ;-)

I was previously using Stefan Bernsee's miniAIFF library
(http://www.dspdimension.com) for reading/writing audio files which is
great and works like a charm, but I'd like to support more audio
formats than just AIFF.

Thanks again
