Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-media

I am using Ubuntu 9.10.
Problem stems from package: gnome-media:
  Installed: 2.28.1-0ubuntu1
  Candidate: 2.28.1-0ubuntu1
  Version table:
 *** 2.28.1-0ubuntu1 0
        500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com karmic/main Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

On Thursday, I used the Gnome Sound Recorder 2.28.1 to record audio from
a mixing board, via my laptop's microphone input.  I recorded as "CD
Quality .MP3".  When I finished recording, the file played very nicely.

The next day I used the same Gnome Sound Recorder 2.28.1 to record audio
from the same mixing board, via the same laptop's microphone input.  I
recorded this time as "CD Quality AAC, .m4a".  When I finished
recording, I tried to play back the file.  Unfortunately, I received a
"This file contains no playable streams" error from Exaile.  I then
tried to make a simple recording using my laptop's built in microphone,
using the m4a setting.  I received the same error when trying to play
back the file.

It seems that my Gnome Sound Recorder 2.28.1 cannot record a valid m4a
file, when configured to use that setting.

Please let me know if I am missing something.

Please let me know if there is any way to fix my seemingly corrupted
file, as it was the only recording from a sound board from this
particular performance.

I am attaching the smaller of the m4a files I tried to create.

Thank you,
-Brett Berry
