Summary0002703: MM has a problem with reading file info from some files.
DescriptionI found out that MM has a problem with reading file info from some files. Especially this file's http://media.revver.com/qt;sharer=14854/104039.mov info cannot be read by MM.
Additional InformationMM crashs with an exception and is closed during the execution of this line:

  FH.F_OpenFile( hndl, GetMMFormatHelpers, sa, FOM_READ)<>0

in FormatHandler.TFormathandlers.ReadFileInfo().

This is quite unpleseant, because MM now supports podcasts, but cannot handle this episode file.
TagsNo tags attached.
Fixed in build

Assigned to Pavel, it's part of f_aac.dll.

Note that .mov probably won't be supported in MM 3.0 final, it will be probably removed from f_aac.dll because we can't grant a full functionality to users (it's currently dependant on QuickTime). That said, we should check out whether the issue could be fixed.

I would like to mention that there were decided on the thing that unsupported episode files like *.mov won't be handled by MM. So the priority of this bug could be decreased.

I've noticed that *.mov was added to the list of file extensions which MM considers as known (KnownExts array).
i.e. *.mov episode files are handled and the priority of this bug is urgent again, because I use KnownExts array as a filter.

Raising of priority - this bug should be fixed or '*.mov' should be removed from the MM known extensions array (KnownExts[]) so that there were not
the problems with reading file info from *.mov episodes.

This is already covered in 0001449, anyway, Pavel, check out why this crashes on MOVs, whether it isn't indication of any deeper problem.
