I cannot see a reason why that should be so. Need to test. Can you point to a download of such a huge file?

And another 92 channel Dolby Atmos master file ... The OneDrive player wont play this so will need to be downloaded using "..." on the WEB page.

I have some WAV files that are not showing any length/duration (less then 2GB)
I have pointed to one here ... let me know if you need more.

Fixed in the next beta.
It was a general problem with files where the audio information appears unusually late in the header. So it's a welcome solution.

Re: WAV Files larger than 2GB dont show Length
Thank you ... I'll keep a lookout for the next beta.
On another note ... we have some AIF and AIFF audio files (these are detected as audio files) that don't show any information. Are you interested in getting some examples? If you are I will start a new thread and point to them. Let me know.
Thanks again.

AIF/AIFF is not (yet) supported by the XY Special Properties. No need to give me the files.

Re: WAV Files larger than 2GB dont show Length
Well I was overly optimistic. The AIF format gives me an extended IEEE 80-bit floating point value for the sample rate, and converting it to a friendly string (a decimal representation) is insane. But without that I cannot even calculate the length of the sound.

UPDATE: It's not as bad as I thought. Only a few values seem to exist in the real world (44,100; 22,050; others?), so I can read them from a small table.
