What version of LZ4 to use for sample data? Error 44 : Unrecognized header : file cannot be decoded

[svanschalkwyk]

All versions of lz4 (even latest build on GitHub), gives me this error:
"Error 44 : Unrecognized header : file cannot be decoded "
Which version are you using, and/or, what should I be using in scripts?

From the pom.xml:

<dependency>
  <groupId>net.jpountz.lz4</groupId>
  <artifactId>lz4</artifactId>
  <version>1.3</version>
</dependency>

That's the most recent release. Its ~ 3 years old but I would have hoped that the standard would not have changed in that time (and that changes would be backward compatible). We would need steps to reproduce the error to resolve this. i.e. which app produced the file, what platform etc.
