CoreWavPack 1.5.1
CoreWavPack enables you to play WavPack files (WV and WVC) in any DirectShow based media player, such as Windows Media Player, Zoom Player, MPC-HC and GOM Player.
WavPack is an audio compression format supporting lossless, high-quality lossy and a hybrid mode (lossy output files and a correction file).
The compression ratio varies between 30% and 70%.
This set of filters offers support for WavPack streams embedded in Matroska containers, too.
The two components of CoreWavPack are:
- WavPackDSDecoder.ax (WavPack Audio Decoder)
- and WavPackDSSplitter.ax (WavPack Audio Splitter).
CoreWavPack is available in two versions, the 32-bit and the 64-bit installer.
These filters are an up to date tool, and new versions of them are released regularly.
The latest versions have undergone important changes: moved to VS 2008, decoding streams with full headers (a feature tested with LAV splitter), created the 64-bit version and its installer, fixed the crashing bug related to hybrid files with DNS, fixed other issues as well (custom sampling rates being ignored; the 12-bit, 20-bit and 32-bit integer playback; non-standard channel configuration etc.)
Incredibly lightweight and completely free, CoreWavPack allows you to enjoy the advantages of the WavPack compression method and play files obtained in this format in your favorite DirectShow based media player.
