[Bug 661922] Re: ffmpeg generates mono ALAC .m4a sound files which play double speed in totem (but play fine with ffplay and alac-decoder)

2012-01-04 Thread Justin Ruggles
I might be wrong, but from what I can tell, gstreamer does not parse the alac atom, but relies only on the sound sample description to get audio properties. The problem with this is that, in mp4, channels in the version 0 sound sample description is reserved as 2 no matter what the actual number o

I can confirm that this issue still exists in Libav master branch. I was able to reproduce with Totem on Maverick. Interestingly, if you output to mov instead of m4a then Totem plays it correctly. Both file formats play correctly on QuickTime Player for Windows. -- You received this bug notifi

thanks for the explanation. I don't think that I have an ipod around here to test, but this is indeed an indication for an faulty alac encoder. Next steps: we need to know if this still happens with ffmpeg trunk's alac encoder and if yes, then forward this upstream. Just to be sure, can you plea

I sent a message to the author of alac-decoder (David Hammerton at craz.net) asking if he would comment on this bug. He reverse- engineered ALAC and likely has the needed expertise. Incidentally, his latest release of alac-decoder behaves the same as the older version in Ubuntu. -- ffmpeg gene

To answer Reinhard's qustion (why I reassigned to ffmpeg): Initially it seemed like a playback (decoding) bug with totem, since the same files "work fine" using alac-decoder. So I filed the bug against gstreamer (totem's decoder). But later it seemed more likely that mono ALAC files were enc

I mentioned forwarding to FFmpeg only because the iPod had issues with the ALAC output as well, but that may be a separate issue and it may be more suitable to report this to Totem instead. -- ffmpeg generates mono ALAC .m4a sound files which play double speed https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/6619

ALAC output from FFmpeg SVN-r25628 on Maverick is also distorted in Maverick's Totem. Totem 2.32.0/gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg 0.10.10 in Arch Linux x86_64 also has distorted decoding from the same output. FFplay from Maverick repo and FFplay SVN decode the file properly. Consider reporting it upstream
