Description Lukas Sabota 2018-11-01 16:19:40 UTC
SUMMARY
Some types of wav files are not accepted by k3b in "Audio Project" mode.  When attempting to add certain wav files to a k3b project, an error dialog titled "Sorry - K3b" with the text "Problems while adding files to the project." is shown - and no details are provided (even after clicking the details button).

Not *all* wav files exhibit this issue, but some do.  I will be attaching two separate files:  one is an example of something that works, and one is an example that does *not* work.

WORKING EXAMPLE
filename: Yamaha-V50-Synbass-1-C2.wav 
"file" output: RIFF (little-endian) data, WAVE audio, Microsoft PCM, 16 bit, stereo 44100 Hz

NON WORKING EXAMPLE:
filename:  perfectRoll.wav
"file" output: RIFF (little-endian) data, WAVE audio

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Have "perfectRoll.wav" available on your system.
2. Open K3b and select new audio project
3. Drag and drop "perfectRoll.wav" into the audio project

OBSERVED RESULT
Error dialog titled "Sorry - K3b" with the text "Problems while adding files to the project." is shown - and no details are provided (even after clicking the details button).


EXPECTED RESULT
File to be added to project
