Description
Summary of the bug: Only .aiff recognized as AIFF file not .aif
How to reproduce:
Apple Music rips CDs and names files with .aif extension.
FFmpeg does not recognize them. It only recognizes .aiff.
Is it possible for FFmpeg to recognize both .aif and .aiff as AIFF files? Otherwise, everyone needs to rename all Apple CD Rips.

Hi,
I suggested @lastone25 submit the ticket but after subsequent investigation it appears that the ffmpeg plugin used by latest Music Player Daemon (MPD) is working correctly.
The .aif extension is being excluded by MPD because MPD now queries ffmpeg at runtime for its list of demuxers and [aif] is not in the list. Refer to this MPD issue https://github.com/MusicPlayerDaemon/MPD/issues/2268
I think the ticket can be closed and we will follow up with MPD project.



This needs more details, i.e. upload a sample. The AIFF demuxer actually does not have a file extension set and the probe function checks the contents of the file, not the file extension. Additionally, the muxer is already auto-selected if the extension is any of "aif", "aiff", "afc", "aifc".
