[erlang-questions] blowfish cbc mode decrypt

Hi,

I have a stream of data called EncryptedData (with randomiv header
specification).
I want to decrypt  using:
crypto:block_decrypt(blowfish_cbc, hexstr2bin(Key), IV, Rest).

where:

EncryptedData is formatted as follows:
<<IvSpec:8/binary, IV:8/binary, Rest/binary>>

IvSpec == <<"RandomIV">>

However the decryption does not works and garbage is generated
(the function  ) .

What could be done given the fact that IV is an 8-byte quantity
the Key is formatted according to crypto test suites and is 16 bytes long

Am I missing something?

Thanks,

Bogdan
