With what was the alaw.aif file generated ?

Replying to michael:

With what was the alaw.aif file generated ?

QuickTime, but attached file looks a bit strange because it sontains QDM2's extradata, anyway here is another file with the same problem (wrong current duration) generated by QT:

[Michael Niedermayer]

Fixed the second file, the first looks odd, can you confirm/verify this really was generated by QT and isnt truncated or something ?

[ami_stuff]

I'm not sure anymore if I used QT directly or maybe some frontend with QT-codecs support, but I have tested "aiffdec: try #2 to fix bps" patch with old ffmpeg snapshot and duration of the file matches now the real conversion duration/time, so looks like this issue is fixed?

(btw. maybe you could look at ticket #204 as well? thanks)

[Michael Niedermayer]

Seems my 2nd fix fixed the first file too :)
