Yeah, I'm working on that one too. (This machine tracked lenny back when it was testing already.) I found the ffmpeg bug report at https://roundup.ffmpeg.org/roundup/ffmpeg/issue187 but it's rather vague as to exactly which version fixed it. Though I guess it seems likely that the version is squeeze did fix it. > If you have other files from the same origin, you might want to check > the metaflac output to see if any of the files are similar in this > aspect; I expect all files should be below 64k. A quick spot check shows that ones that work are at about 12k and ones that don't are above 64k. So far, I've noticed a problem only with files on this one album, which could make sense if it has unusually large cover art. > Anyway, that's an ffmpeg bug, and if it's the 64k bug, I think it > can be fixed with the upstream patch pretty easily. You mean I should rebuild ffmpeg on lenny with the patch from issue 187?
