Crash / Failure to write file on Media Export

[bronzie94]

I have been attempting to edit mp3 files in various programs, and export these to various formats. Any app that uses BMediaKit fails, writing a 0 byte file then crashing out (either the whole app, or the export process).

This problem has occurred in the following programs *using the BMediaKit export funtion*

• BeAE
• Medo (which works when using ffmpeg and not BMediaKit to export)
• Clockwerk

It has happened on all Dev/nightly versions of Haiku since the Beta release (had not tried in a long time before). Currently on hrev55274

BeAE crash report on failed export attempt

Can you run it again from Terminal like this: LD_PRELOAD=libroot_debug.so /system/apps/BeAE/BeAE and create a ticket here ​https://github.com/HaikuArchives/beae/issues

Also affects BeScreenRecorder, cant export any video to disk (AVI/Theora/Matroska export tested)

I have installed R1B3 hrev55181+56 (ie the stable version) fresh on a DIFFERENT Core 2 Duo machine with NATIVE supported HDA audio, and am experiencing the same issues with BeAE (crashing and producing a 0 byte output file).

I also am experiencing 100% failures to transcode .wav files in the audio app Clementine (installed from Haiku Depot). I will attach its error output (it errors out from the operation without crashing or generating any output file at all, except the transcoder log per attached)

A couple more experiments -

• Restored my settings on new box back to vanilla - BeAE had same crash/0 byte export file issue

• Restored by current settings and experimented with "MediaConverter". Attempted to convert an MP3 to otehr audio formats. All failed and wrote 0 byte files, some (like OGG) also caused the app to crash - See attached crash log file.

NB - it seems that maybe the wrong codecs are being paired with containers - they seem off...
