WMReader, DirectShow interface we use for reading this format, is not able to read this file. Windows Media Encoder, Windows Media File Editor and some other tools for WMA repair I tried have also the same problem with this file. So this does not seem to be our bug.
I tried Media Foundation Source Reader (in Windows 7, I'm working on input plugin for playback via MF) and without problem, so in Win7 we can use this new input plugin.

I wonder what happened with Input Plugin project based on BASS Engine?

It looks that this could solve some issues?

I don't think it makes sense to switch decoders just because one corrupted file that doesn't play well, there can be other problems in the other decoder. So, I believe that what Michal wrote makes sense.

Fixed in build 1300.
Merged into 1266.

I've found simple workround and it seems to work good. Only progressbar now visually jump from 0s to 2s (instead of 1s) in this case, but this is detail, I think.
