I'm working with the libmad library and I'm trying to decode an mp3. I've follow the guidelines in the Install file, the configure and then the make. And I've got no errors. After all that I did: $ make minimad $ ./minimad test.mp3 test.pcm

but after that the test.pcm file is empty.

Can anybody help me, because I realy don't have a clue why it doesn't work. What am I doing wrong?

minimad uses stdin and stdout:

./minimad <test.mp3 >test.pcm
