Comment:

 Replying to [ticket:1843 cgo]:
 > ffmpeg produces wav files with a 18 bytes size fmt section (hardcoded in
 libavformat/riff.c:ff_put_wav_header()). Some software expect the header
 size to be 16 bytes if wFormatTag is 1 (pcm), as the standard suggests
 that.

 Could you point us to the standard?
