„Big“ audiobook files have no sound after 10 Hours #497

Open semasire opened 4 years ago

semasire commented 4 years ago

A couple of audiobooks with about/over 37 hrs duration, have no sound after 09:58:58. The files work, I checked them with both pc and other audiobooks players. Can you fix this please?

GianniCarlo commented 4 years ago

Hi @semasire ! could you share with us the file so we can debug? or the other option would be if you could pass the file through ffprobe (comes with ffmpeg) and copy/paste the info it has on the file

I also ran into something similar just note. Length 43 hours, no audio after 16:40h. Also re importing the file, which did not help

pichfl commented 2 years ago

Historically there was a limit ~10 or ~13h in m4b files, maybe something in iOS still walks into this?

ahoereth commented 2 years ago

So I am able to play the full mp3 using the files app.. trying a different mp3 audiobook app (“mp3 audiobook player”) everything works fine as well.

GianniCarlo commented 2 years ago

We use AVPlayer and AVPlayerItem for playback, which are native APIs for audio playback. Whenever I run into files that are behaving oddly, I run them by ffmpeg, using the copy command which remuxes the file, and strips whatever was odd with it, basically fixing it.

Right now adding third party libraries to replace the native player, or going with a lower level API to possibly handle these cases is not within our short to midterm goals, We're working on something for users that aren't comfortable using command-line tools, so ffmpeg will be easier to use in tandem with BookPlayer

ahoereth commented 2 years ago

Do you have an example command for me? Happy to run it

GianniCarlo commented 2 years ago

@ahoereth sure! ffmpeg -i damagedfile.m4b -c copy newfile.m4b, let me know when you reimport if you still experience the issue

ahoereth commented 2 years ago

Sadly, did not help. Problem is exactly the same at the same timepoint.

Mhh after I ran the following it now works:

@ahoereth Could you by chance help me decode that command line for Apple? This is what I get when I try to run that command with ffmpeg downloaded directly from their website:

There's a typo in the original instruction, it's not capital -I but lowercase -i

Ah, thanks. That disposes of the unrecognized option error, but now I get "....mp3: No such file or directory" so I changed the command to :

ffmpeg -i *.mp3 -c:a libfdk_aac -c:v copy $1.m4b

I get the metadata and chapter info displayed but now I'm getting "Unknown encoder 'libfdk_aac'" Research points to the fdk_aac library not being included in the default FFMPEG distro due to licensing incompatibilites. Changing that command line to

ffmpeg -i *.mp3 -c:a aac -c:v copy $1.m4b

looks like it's giving the desired final output from an MP3 to correctly chapterized M4B. Thanks for your help, @GianniCarlo !

GianniCarlo commented 2 years ago

the aac is good to know 🙌 , I had to reinstall ffmpeg with the libfdk_aac option 😅. I'll add a section about ffmpeg in the wiki with useful commands
