| Summary | 0010241: Import iPhone mp4 recording by drag & drop does not import the audio to the end | ||||
| Description | I received an iPhone mp4 recording I wanted to import to Ardour as an audio track. The simplest solution was to drag the mp4 file to the Ardour Edit view. Works fine ... almost ... about 5 seconds at the end of the recording are not imported. | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | Drag and drop a mp4 file into Ardour Edit view. As I had similar effects with importing ogg or mp3 IMHO this effect should be easily reproducable. | ||||
| Tags | No tags attached. | ||||

Sadly YHO isn't relevant. I regularly import mp3 and ogg files just fine. Could you provide an example file that fails? Thanks in advance. |

Dear x42, thank you for your reply - looks like I should have thought a little deeper :-( . I cannot easily share the file without checking and asking for permission - haven't received it yet. But 2 further experiments showed that should have taken more pre-analysis before raising this. * I produced a recording as example to create a file that I could upload --> no issues with this one. * I installed Ardour freshly on a different (Windows, sorry ...) machine to avoid issues with audio configuration. --> same negative and positive behavior here Increases the probability that it's is something with the import file. (and makes me worry as I seem to have so many of them - and that "playable with VLC" was not a good criterion ..) Is my assumption correct, that the core of the import is a matter of ffmpeg processing the file, like what is shown in the log ? If yes then it's for sure not related with Ardour9 let's close the issue here. I'd rather open a thread in the discussions to get community support. |
