I previously thought that it was a problem with Media Monkey, but I managed to get Media Monkey to play some m4a files and the files I know don't run in Media Monkey, iTunes, Quicktime or Media Player. Most of these players fail without useful invalid sample description information, but Quicktime gives the message in the title. The files that fail were originally ripped from CD on Ubuntu. Is there anyway I can fix up these files? music quicktime m4a share|improve this question asked Sep 1 '10 at 12:14 Casebash 2,220104376 add a comment| 1 Answer 1 active oldest votes up vote 1 down vote accepted +50 See this thread : error -2041: an invalid sample description was found in the movie. Some people reported that the problem was fixed by changing the file's postfix to .3gp, while others have proposed heavier solutions that fix the encoded video file, using software such as mp4UI, VLC or Mobile Media Convert. Question: Which operating system are you using? share|improve this answer edited Sep 7 '10 at 11:43 answered Sep 7 '10 at 11:37 harrymc 190k7166408 I am using Windows 7.

QuickTime Error: "Error -2041: an invalid sample description was found in the movie" Reported by: KSHawkEye Owned by: michael Priority: normal Component: avformat Version: git-master Keywords: mov mp3 Cc: Blocked By: Blocking: Reproduced by developer: no Analyzed by developer: no Description While trying to play back a simple video encoded with FFmpeg and lame, I get: "Error -2041: an invalid sample description was found in the movie" I'm on a Windows machine and am unsure if the problem is just on Windows or on Linux too. The command line I used was: ffmpeg -i "input.mp4" -y -acodec libmp3lame -vn "output.mp4" No errors were displayed while encoding. I'm using version git-41bf67d built on 2011-08-16 mp3 should be accepted in a .mp4 container and QuickTime? should be able to play it back, so I believe this is an FFmpeg bug.

Do you believe this is a regression? If not, why do you think this is supposed to work? Do you have a mp3-in-isom sample that works with QuickTime?? (Works fine with -f mov) comment:2 Changed 5 years ago by cehoyos Keywords isom mp3 added Resolution set to needs_more_info Status changed from open to closed Please reopen if an isom file with mp3 that can be played with QuickTime? is found. comment:3 Changed 4 years ago by cehoyos Keywords mov added; isom removed Note: See TracTickets for help on using tickets.
