If you send me a sample of a file i can make it work. yeah i know the Mac AIFF files are big endian as well. If you send me a sample of a file i can make it work.

I believe they're the big endian version of RIFF files. I get a "The File does not have a RIFF header" message. I'm trying to get a better look at a really old (1992?) .dir file (used by Macromind Director) What about RIFX files? I believe they’re the big endian version of RIFF files.

Soundpad used to do that sort of thing. ITs a bit out of date but i might be able to get it to work. –Ben– You didnt leave any contact info. send me a message at menasoft.com (dennis@) and i think i might be able to get a converter for you.

I recovered some files from a MAC formated drive I had poop out on me. It had Protools ercording sessions on it and nothing else. Instead of .WAV files I know have .RIFF files. Can I convert these to WAV or AIFF so that I can put my session back together? any help would be useful. Thanks very much Ben Hello, i hope you can give me a hand here.

For the sake of completeness ;) it would also make sense to support the 'RF64' extension to allow >4GB WAVE files.

The AVIX's seem to be displayed fine now. But the tc_O and similar chunk names seem be displaying a question mark instead of underscore - e.g. "tcXO" where X is a question mark (I've avoided using a literal question mark as I think that may be what messed up the formatting in an earlier post). Also, I'm not sure what the JUNK, dmlh and Tdat display on the right is supposed to be telling me. I was expecting to see a hex dump for data which riffpad does not understand, but it just seems to display like this: 0000: 0001: 0002: 0003: 0004: 0005: 0006: 0007: 0008: 0009: 0010: 0011: and so on. The count doesn't seems to correspond to the chunk length either. For example a JUNK chunk of length 272 goes up to "0168:". I'm a bit mystified. Thanks for your work on that.

It has experimental support for AVIX format AVI files. That is it will allow multiple RIFF headers in the same file. It has the effect of allowing RIFF files greater than 2G. If anyone has problems with it, just send me a message and maybe even a test file that is having problems and I'll fix it. I just updated to RiffPad 7.2.
