sndfile_info() in ext_sndfile.h
I'm trying to port my old sfmarkers~ external to ARM and just noticed it doesn't work for AIFF files since some Max versions.
I does work with Max8.1.11 but not with 8.3.3 and later (on intel, 64bits).
As far as I still understand my 20+ years old code, the call to sndfile_info() sets a NULL pointer to the markers pointer in the _sndfileinfo structure, even if markers are present in the soundfile.
Other fields like sr are set correctly with this call.
Did something change in sndfile_info() between Max8.1 and Max8.3?
I contacted c74's support but their answer is not really helpfull:
Due to the very small size of our support department we are unfortunately unable to offer developer support. For help updating your external I recommend posting to the Dev forum.
So if anybody has some ideas before I create my own sndfile_info() function they are most welcome.
Note that my problem is not to port to ARM, the object stopped working on intel with Max versions after 8.1.11.
I could use the sfmarkers~ object right now. It served me well a few years back. Did you make any progress?
I updated the object for ARM and it seems to work, but I didn't test it extensively nor did I receive feedback from other users.
It can be downloaded from here: http://www.crfmw.be/max/
There is no support from c74 for developers, and nobody answered this thread. So I had to code my own sndfile_info() function.

Thanks a lot! Seems to work fine so far.
