Title: fatal error in opening .wmv
Post by: anctop on October 18, 2018, 02:05:35 AM
Dear all,

I am writing to report a fatal error encountered when opening a .wmv file.

My system is Win-7 64-bit, Avidemux version 2.7.1 build r180929_win64Qt5_538.
Default values are kept for Avidemux preferences.

The target file is an old .wmv file created some years ago (see attachment "01.jpg" for file properties).

When opening the .wmv file with Avidemux, a fatal error appears (see attachments "02a.jpg", "02b.jpg", "03.jpg").

Is there any solution to the problem ?

Please provide a sample video which allows to reproduce this crash. There are known issues with very big (>=4 GiB) .wmv files, but this file is obviously not that big.

With the information available, it is impossible to assess what the problem is (apart from that it leads to a crash).

The size of that file is 4.5MB, but this already exceeds the limit of 192KB for attachments.
How can I submit the sample ?

"Windows Media Player" can play it without problem.

Please use a service like WeTransfer, Mega, Dropbox, Google Drive or similar.

This indicates that the file is not corrupted, but doesn't help to locate the problem.

I am sorry for my late response.

Here is the .wmv file : "https://drive.google.com/file/d/1maxZovIhITUB4ml3_paOnu2UTon_zRrf/view?usp=sharing"

Should be fixed now (https://github.com/mean00/avidemux2/commit/53ced953da0b38b31158e91e203733116c75756e), please test with future nightly builds.
