Description Karri Ojala 2008-09-13 16:49:25 UTC 
All Microsoft DV AVI files over 9 minutes 26 seconds cannot be played further. For example, I have two Microsoft DV AVI files, one is 1 h 47 min long and the other 2 h 3 mins, yet Gstreamer applications like Totem and Gnome Subtitles show their length as 9 min 26 secs, and the playback stops at that point.

Could you make such a file available somewhere?

What version of gst-plugins-good? (gst-inspect-0.10 avidemux | grep Version)
Comment 2 Edward Hervey 2008-09-14 08:33:11 UTC 
Weren't they fixed by this commit ? We support ODML AVI files (greater than 2GB) except that some applications didn't respect the standard correctly.

	* gst/avi/gstavidemux.c: (gst_avi_demux_read_subindexes_pull),
	(gst_avi_demux_read_subindexes_push):
	Some AVI 2.0 (ODML) files don't respect the 'specifications' completely
	and instead of using the 'ix##' nomenclature, use '##ix'.
	They're still valid though, this fixes the duration and indexes for
	virtually all the ODML files I have.

I don't think I can make such file available because all the files I have are huge, over 100 mins and about 22 GB in size and right now I don't have the tools (WinXP + Premiere) to make more of those AVI's.

karri@karri-desktop:~$ gst-inspect-0.10 avidemux | grep Version
  Version:		0.10.7

Ok, in that case let's just assume it's fixed already by the commit mentioned by Edward. Please re-open if it still doesn't work with gst-plugins-good 0.10.10 once it comes out (or current CVS, should you ever try it).
