|
Note: both files had .MPEG extensions so if I Change extension to .MP4 files are imported Correctly. My guess is that this is same/similar issue as 0006416 where around MP3 file user writes RIFF header. As pointed in 0006416 http://www.ventismedia.com/mantis/view.php?id=6416#c20514 MM should be able to detect right CODEC/Format according to headers and not assume correct format based on Extension. Additionally to not lose time that should be done on the end scanning with or without dialog that will notify user about nature of error and that MM will try to determine right format. |
|
|
The file is not MPEG1, nor MPEG2, so the extension is wrong (evidently, the file is normal MP4). I plan some "detect wrong extension" feature, which should resolve this problem I think. MM detect format using file headers, but, without right file extension, it cannot choose right format plugin for detecting this format... |
|
|
Exactly my point, I'm thinking that Format plugins should have small function to return RAW header or FOURCC ID so that MM can after initial scan and in error dialog ask user to try to check/detect correct file format. That way I think we will not lose on scan speed and we will get feature to fix such issues for them due the fact that trying each file against each format plugin is high risk and CPU/MEM intensive. |
|
|
Format plugins now returns error "-2", when the given file is not in the expected format they know. I think, only in this case should MM try to detect file type (container) by reading some data from it, the function is already in f_video plugin, the question is only the MM side, how to handle it from user's view (e.g. collect all such wrong files during scanning and show some dialog after scanning for easy renaming a rescanning?). |
|
|
Fixed in build 1368. If the format plugin refuses some video file, application tries to detect the right extension and uses appropriate other format plugin. |
|
|
Reopening. There are still problems with playback of some files with incorrect extension. Reported here: http://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=57433 |
|
|
Fixed in build 1369. I've tried F4V, FLV, MPG and AVI renamed to MP4 and it seems ok already. |

User indicates there are still some problems in 1369: http://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=296334#p296334 |

Fixed in codec pack 1.11. F_aac_codec.dll was fixed, but not released. |
