Reporting Bugs in libsndfile

Before even attempting to report a bug in libsndfile please make sure you have read the Frequently Asked Questions. If you are having a problem writing code using libsndfile make sure you read the Application Programming Interface documentation.

That said, I am interested in finding and fixing all genuine bugs in libsndfile. Bugs I want to fix include any of the following problems (and probably others):

  • Compilation problems on new platforms.
  • Errors being detected during the make check process.
  • Segmentation faults occuring inside libsndfile.
  • libsndfile hanging when opening a file.
  • Supported sound file types being incorrectly read or written.
  • Omissions, errors or spelling mistakes in the documentation.

When submitting a bug report you must include:

  • Your system (CPU and memory size should be enough).
  • The operating system you are using.
  • Whether you are using a package provided by your distribution or you compiled it youself.
  • If you compiled it yourself, the compiler you are using. (Also make sure to run make check.)
  • A description of the problem.
  • Information generated by the sndfile-info program (see next paragraph).
  • If you are having problems with sndfile-play and ALSA on Linux, I will need information about your kernel, ALSA version, compiler version, whether you compiled the kernel/ALSA your self or installed from a package etc.

If libsndfile compiles and installs correctly but has difficulty reading a particular file or type of file you should run the sndfile-info program (from the examples directory of the libsndfile distribution) on the file. See here for an example of the use of the sndfile-info program.

Please do not send me a sound file which fails to open under libsndfile unless I specifically ask you to. The above information should usually suffice for most problems.

Once you have the above information you should submit a ticket on the libsndfile GitHub issue tracker.
