How can it be working fine, if the read/write functions don't exist for 24-bit files? I looked at the code, and it seems that if the read/write functions haven't been set, pacat treats the files as raw PCM data. This is not good, because the user requested wav files, not raw files. If wav files are treated as raw files, then the wav header will be played to the speakers, and when recording, the wav header will be missing from the output file. If getting the read/write function fails, pacat should print an error message and exit. -- Tanu
