Tolerance - non-strict mode please? #7

Open mrlimbic opened 7 years ago

mrlimbic commented 7 years ago

As some apps may make lazy AAFs, would it be possible to have some kind of 'non strict' mode when reading AAFs?

For instance trying to read the preface of an AAF exported from Digital Performer but it gives an error. However if I convert it to XML using aaffmtconv then it looks like it does actually contain enough useful information to generate a sequence. It's not complete garbage.

I also tried an AAF exported by Logic. This also won't validate. Non strict mode is going to be required to work with many apps.
