[asterisk-users] WAV49 output in sox

[Eric "ManxPower" Wieling]

[root at pbx-1 vm]# sox -h
sox: Version 12.17.8

[root at pbx-1 vm]# sox msg0000.wav -g -t wav test.WAV
sox: Overriding output size to bytes for compressed data.
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

[root at pbx-1 vm]# sox msg0000.gsm -g -t wav test.WAV
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
[root at pbx-1 vm]#

msg0000.wav and msg0000.gsm are both messages in a user's voice mailbox.

I'll see if I can get a newer version of sox.
