  • Status changed from New to Rejected

No error here. First try updating FFmpeg to the latest version, then report the problem to the FFmpeg project if the problem persists.

#2 Updated by Se Li over 7 years ago

This systematically happens with .mp4 videos files downloaded from YouTube and treated with MP4Box to extract the audio to a .m4a file. Would it be possible to ignore this error silently? Other players such as VLC do not indicate any problem. (Using Arch Linux, all packages current.)

#3 Updated by John Lindgren over 7 years ago

This bug was already closed since it was not reproducible. If you have a test case for which Audacious reports and error and command-line ffmpeg does not, then please open a new report. If ffmpeg reports an error, then you can try reporting a bug to ffmpeg, but it is likely you have a corrupt file.
