DSDPlus DSDPlus not properly writing output sound files

[rolypolyman]

I've noticed that my copy of DSDPlus is not properly writing output WAV files. It appears to be completely ignoring the -I interval value that I've set. I've tried 30 minutes and 15 minutes with no effect. It just keeps piling on a single WAV file that grows endlessly.

The command I use that calls DSDPlus is as follows (copied and pasted):

dsdplus -T -v0 -i20002 -o4 -ds62 -dd35 -dv19 -I15 -OM soundfiles\dsd.wav -Pwav

Currently the directory looks like this:

09/23/2021  12:12 PM    <DIR>          .
09/23/2021  12:12 PM    <DIR>          ..

The WAV files simply keep piling up in a single WAV file. The only reason you see multiple files here was from me stopping and restarting DSDPlus.

Here's a status message so far. I've been running it for about 6 hours, and you can see here it is ignoring -I15 and letting it pile up into a massive file:

2021.09.23 12:05:34  1512.0 seconds (24,192,000 bytes) of synthesized audio written to 'soundfiles\dsd.2021-09-23@0635.wav'

Note that THIS DOES NOT CONCERN the per-call WAVs, which are something different and are called with -P. Those work perfect.

I don't see any command to check the program version. This is not the Fastlane version though. I'm a Fastlane supporter but I'm running regular DSDPlus on this frequency until I get time to change it over.

Is there anything obvious I'm doing wrong?

... I don't see any command to check the program version. ...

dsdplus -h gives the version info, followed by a usage summary. Does it show that it supports the options you are using?

Add

-O NUL

this will stop the creation of the continuous .wav/.srt files AFAIK..
