Cannot use non-canonical full path name on win32 #151

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Non-canonical paths such as C:\foo\\\bar\\\\\\\\\\\\\\bazz.mp4 are valid, but 
mp4v2 fails to open them.

mp4v2 will insert prefix \\?\ when the path name looks like a full path name 
(to get very long file name support). However, it doesn't normalize the path.
Although win32 CreateFile() allows non-canonical path names, if seems to 
require the path to be canonical when \\?\ prefix is used.

To fix the problem, GetFullPathName() should be used when inserting \\?\ prefix.
