Here's a list of what I (erikd AT mega-nerd DOT com) think needs to be
done. The list is by no means exhaustive and people are encouraged to
email me with suggestions.
o Add pipe in/out capabilities. libsndfile should be able to read
its input from a pipe and write its output to a pipe.
o Add checks of the error state after fseek???? Use ferror ().
o Modify tests/lossy_comp_test.c to add tests for stereo files.
o Testing compilation and correctness on more platforms.
o Improve testing routines. Must test all combinations of inputs
and outputs.
o Test sf_seek function on write???
o Add more sound file formats. People should contact me with their
requirements.
o Add support for accessing sound formats with multiple audio
data sections (ie samples within tracker files, Soundfont II and
multi-sample sampler formats).
o Add an interface to allow reading and writing of sample loop points
and other info within AIFF and other file formats. This must be a
general solution.
o Improve documentation. Is HTML documentation good enough?
o Look into the possibility of optional sample rate convert on file
read.
As I am the person who knows libsndfile best, I can probably implement
any new features faster than anybody else (and you can spend your time
writing applications with libsndfile). All I need is some
documentation and some sample files. Please contact me before emailing
me documentation and sample files. I would much rather pull them off
the web than have them clogging up my email inbox.
