Author Topic: Wrong FLAC length unless plugin is loaded but it still works without doing so?  (Read 580 times)

There seems to be an issue with FLAC files,

I've been wondering why I can read more data than stream length...
Well, I checked the file in two audio editors and indeed it's longer than what BASS says.
That is, unless you explicitly load the FLAC plugin, length is then right.

But then, how come is BASS able to read, albeit incorrectly, the FLAC file without loading the plugin?

Length in samples without loading the plugin: 16758000
Length in samples with plugin loaded: 16772112

I've uploaded the file to your FTP should you want to take a look at it.

If you could clarify what's going on, that'd be great, thanks!

(test below will fail with 16, expected for last block, i.e. it works when loading the plugin)

Length in samples without loading the plugin: 16758000
Length in samples with plugin loaded: 16772112

with plugin Bass will use bassflac,
without Plugin will use Media Foundation Codec.

Oh yes, I understand now... I remember using MF and it was pretty inaccurate, seems like it's still is...

Thanks!
