Well.
What do i know  about ACT ?
1. it usually has .ACT extension (not reliable)
2. First 44 bytes are regular WAV header with 0x01 PCM tag (not reliable)
3. bytes 44-256 and 264-511 are filled by zero (not reliable too)
4. the rest are 512 bytes long chunks with 2 of 6 zero-filled padding
data at the end (unable to differ from WAV data).

So there is no reliable method for format detection.
We always can create correct WAV file which will look like ACT

According to above what will your suggestion about probing?

Looks like only extension check can be used.

No, only with 8000hz.
There is no sample yet for 4400 to check bytes order (i'll try to see asm code).
I'll disable 4400 support for a while.
