Hello,

I'm trying to join two .wav files with the wave module. But when I try to
use wave.open(filename, "rb") I receive the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
 File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
 File "F:\PortablePython1.0\lib\wave.py", line 483, in open
   return Wave_read(f)
 File "F:\PortablePython1.0\lib\wave.py", line 162, in __init__
   self.initfp(f)
 File "F:\PortablePython1.0\lib\wave.py", line 143, in initfp
   self._read_fmt_chunk(chunk)
 File "F:\PortablePython1.0\lib\wave.py", line 264, in _read_fmt_chunk
   raise Error, 'unknown format: %r' % (wFormatTag,)
wave.Error: unknown format: 85

I read somewhere that there are various wave formats, only some supported by
Python. Is this true? If so, is there any way I can convert my wave files
into a supported kind?


Thanks!


Try creating your own wave fiel and open it. It may be that the one you're
opening is corrupted.

BTW Agent Krycec: what' that black, oily fluid in your eyes? ;-)
