Openshot cuts off end of audio

[Kynialator]

When I import an audio file and add it to time line the end of the sound is cut off. The same also happens when i preview the recording. This happened with both the M4A and MP3 formats.

Openshot 1.1.0
Ubuntu 9.10

I have the same problem. When i import a mp3-file it almost always reports the track as shorter than the actual file. If i try to reimport the file it always gets the same length. On occasion i get a reported length that is longer than the actual audio-file. If the file is reported as longer it is correctable in the program but if it's reported as shorter you can't correct it.

Now i use ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx but i had the same problem on 9.10.
Though on 9.10 it was more often too long audio length while now it's almost always reported as too short.

I'm having a similar problem. It extends to Openshot playing the audio track past the end as displayed on the timeline. Usually only a few seconds extra.
I believe it may be related to the mp3 file being in the VBR (Variable Bit Rate) format.
If you are having this problem, please check the details of the mp3 file. You may need to find a tool that can dig deeper, as lots of tools report VBR files as the average bit rate and don't inform you it's a VBR.

Under linux, the mp3info tool will give you more details

mp3info -x file.mp3
....
Audio: Variable kbps, 44 kHz (joint stereo)
....

If we can confirm this is a VBR problem, we can look at fixes. (or reencode the problem files to CBR)

My file was VBR.
