The pep8 test was broken in the main branch. I fixed it. Can you please rebase your PR on the main branch to fix the CI?
Tests pass, I'm happy, I merged your PR. Thanks for your contribution!
Thank you very much for the library!
I've got some *.mov files from a (rather old) Kodak EasyShare C533 camera, which have "skip" as the container's first atom, rather than "ftyp", "moov", or "free". They therefore don't pass the check in
hachoir.parser.container.MP4File.validate()
. This initial "skip" atom seems to contain some metadata like camera model name, and is followed by an "mdat" occupying most of the file, and then finally by a "moov".I use
hachoir
to extract movie's duration and timestamp, and it works fine ifvalidate()
method is tweaked to allow "skip" as the initial atom. (Apparently, all the needed info is in "moov" at the end of the file).Admittedly, "skip" doesn't look very characteristic of a movie file, but we already have "free" on the list, so it shouldn't make things much worse.
