There are about 700 different ADPCM algorithms and if you don't have the correct one, it will not decode correctly. > (8kHz, 1 channel, (12,16,25 or 32) bit) > I've tried sox and libsamplerate, libsamplerate? Sure you don't mean libnsdile? Try the sndfile-info program on the file. If there is a file header, that program should find it and do the right thing. If there is no file header, there is a decent chance that the file is VOX ADPCM encoded. To test this, rename the file so it has a ".vox" file extention and then try opening the file with a sound file editor which uses libsndfile (eg Sweep or Audacity). If it opens, look at the file and see if it plays back correctly. If it does, then it was indeed a VOC ADOCM file. > The data are from a voice-recording machine, with very limited documentation. Probably VOX, which is indeed headerless. For any headerless file which has a ".vox" extention, will be assumed to be VOX ADPCM. > sfinfo.format = SF_FORMAT_IMA_ADPCM | SF_FORMAT_RAW; If the file does not have a header, the above is 99.9% guaranteed to be wrong. IMA ADPCM specifies an algorithm, which is so poorly specified that I know of at least 3 implementations.
