  • Ticket #10696 – Description

    initial v1  
    5656Monkey's Audio 3.99 reports no errors with it either, and both versions of MA have no problems decoding it correctly.  Then, the resulting WAV can then be turned into FLAC etc by ffmpeg just fine.

    58 ''I did notice that using MediaInfo v0.7.80, the number of tracks is hugely incorrect on these files.  The attached test file here shows as 2,500 tracks in MediaInfo, when it should say two.  In my limited experience, MediaInfo is capable of seeing the correct number of tracks in my other ape files.  That said, most of these v2.88 Extra High ape files that show a huge number of tracks in MediaInfo still converted perfectly back to 2ch WAV using ffmpeg.

     61I want to add, even if this was a bug in a 20 year old version of Monkey's Audio that has been fixed in newer versions, the risk here is using ffmpeg to convert precious old .ape files (in my case to .flacs), **not receiving any errors at all**, deleting the old files, and discovering at some point in the future that many of your dearly valued old archives are gone.
