+Raphaël G. MVC Posted January 28, 2015 Author MVC Share Posted January 28, 2015 I wouldn't be posting here if I didn't have the app, now would I! If it played M4A files, then I wouldn't get the following error: Here's the file in Windows Explorer: So, if it played M4A files, then the above error wouldn't be happening! That was obviously a stupid question of mine. MusiX plays m4a/aac. I'm guessing it's not AAC format contained in those m4a files OR they are AAC files but the musiX decoder doesn't support it. Do you have more info about how these file were encoded? Also, there should be more information about why they cannot be played in the logfile. If you could send me that, it might be helpful. The logfile is at this location: C:\Users\<your_user_name>\AppData\Local\musiX\Log Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1199859-musix/page/17/#findComment-596734718 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Draconian Guppy Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Harsh! MeetJohnDoe - I second metallithrax statement, if you want help, drop the attitude. This is a guy making an application in his spare time, he has been incredible with responding to people and their issues. No you got it all wrong. People should should stop bothering raphael with issues so he can use his time to finish the new build and address issues later Speaking seriously, Raphael, your app seems to be a hit, wouldn't letting someone in to help you with issues be helpful in terms of your time management? 2 cents ( I know nothing of coding so excuse me if this comment is way off ) Skiver 1 Share Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1199859-musix/page/17/#findComment-596735028 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darrian Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 The only time I had problems playing m4a files is when I converted them from 24-bit flac. All my music is converted to m4a/aac and I haven't had any other issues.

The "Thanks" section is an almost copy paste of musiX's. That can't be coincidence.
