APE Files Fail To Play Cleanly But Work With Programs Built Against SDK
Convert a file to 48 kHz, 24-bit APE.
Play it with VLC and it plays bursts of static.
Play it with Winamp, JRiver Media Center, or anything else built against the official Monkey's Audio SDK and it plays fine.
The Monkey's Audio SDK builds on all three platforms so you could just use that.
If you have custom code, please fix it so playback of 24-bit 48 kHz works.
Thanks.
