This patch resolves two issues: 1. ADPCM compressed audio files reading. Such files have frame size of 4 bits. Aifc lib cannot represent 4 bits frame size because it uses integer bytes count variable. I have replaced it with bits count. 2. ALAW/ULAW/ADPCM audio data decompression. According to documentation (http://docs.python.org/library/audioop.html), adpcm2lin, alaw2lin and ulaw2lin are using 'width' argument to represent output frames width. However, in audioop.c module there are checks that are raising exceptions if input frames length is not multiple of 'width'. I have replaced checking of 'len' to match 'size' with checking of 'len*size' to match 'size' in order to retain only basic length validity checks.
I have put changes to both aifc and audioop module in this single patch. The reason is that aifc test reading compressed frames will work properly only after audioop fix has been applied.
Hi Oleg, thanks for your interest in aifc module! I think that if the fix for audioop has a reason for itself to exists, then another issue (for that only) has to be filed and set the accordingly dependency on this one.
Ok, I have opened issue 13806 with audioop fix alone. However, I cannot change current issue's dependencies to reflect that current issue depends on issue 13806. Could anyone do this for me please?
