Description Sebastian Dröge (slomo) 2007-05-01 17:10:43 UTC 
Hi,
the file at [0] is misdetected as video/mp4. gst-typefind for example correctly detects it as audio.

This is with shared-mime-info 0.20 and 0.21.

Bye

Comment 1 Bastien Nocera 2007-08-31 10:53:24 UTC 
video/mp4 is a super-set of audio/mp4. See RFC 4337 for details: http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4337

There's no way to know there's no video track without opening the file. You should make Banshee handle video/mp4 files, or the user should rename the file to a .m4a.
