SNDFILE-SALVAGE(1) BSD General Commands Manual SNDFILE-SALVAGE(1)NAMEsndfile-salvage — salvage audio data from WAV files longer than 4G
SYNOPSISsndfile-salvage toolong.wav fixed64.wav
DESCRIPTION
Audio files using the WAV file container are inherently limited to 4G of
data size fields in the WAV header being stored as unsigned 32bit inte‐
gers. Many applications have trouble with these WAV files that are more
the 4G in size. sndfile-salvage rewrites the WAV file into a W64 file
with the same audio content. This file is overwritten if it already
exists.
EXIT STATUS
The sndfile-salvage utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error
occurs.
