File size problem :(

Hi all
I've used this package for a good whilie now & this problem is a first for me, but I can't find a way to resolve it. Basically I have a 19 min file that won't render properly in S/S - instead showing itself constantly as being 1125 mins long with a file length to match . I've tried it as both the original file, & also as various exported versions out of Audacity but continue to run into the same issue. If it wasn't such a superb sermon I'd forget about it, but it's one I don't want to lose off the site - however, this issue appears to be impacting on hits despite my putting up a note to ignore the length.

All other files I've uploaded (that have mostly been run through Audacity first to compress) all show appropriate sizes.

The original file was saved on a TasCam DR-05 device.

Anyone come across this before or have any suggestions on what else I could try to fix it.

Thanks

You are using an outdated version of SermonSpeaker. Please update first to SermonSpeaker 4.5.8.
I know there was once a bug related to the time calculation which I fixed, but don't remember when it was. So maybe updating solves this issue.

Also it looks like the file isn't hosted on your server but streamed from another one. Can I have a look at the file itself?

Hi Thomas
Thanks SO much for such a speedy reply (wish all Forums were this good!!). Didn't realise SS was outdated (Joomla didn't inform me in the Updates section ), so will get that sorted. Unsure why it should appear that the file's not on our server as I uploaded it directly through SS itself, but perhaps I should just do so manually instead & then refer - might also sort out the problem. Will try those first & come back to you if they don't make any difference before uploading the actual file to you.

Not sure why, but the podcasted version was showing as the correct length - intriguing

Ok - have updated the program & done a manual upload of the file but neither have made any difference. So here's the original file in case there's some issue within it that's the cause of the problem. However, even there, I redid this file twice through Audacity using the same settings as for all the other sermon files for compression, so hard to appreciate it's the problem.

Maybe a gremlin that's just not going to show itself easily

NB - tried twice now to add the MP3 file but system isn't allowing it? Any other way I can fire it to you e.g. Dropbox etc?

I probably had a wrong look at the filepath then. I was now able to find it and will have a look at it later (dinner time).

Hmm. It works fine when I upload the file from your server to my testing server: joomla16.hopto.org/index.php/sermons

What does it show in your sermon edit form for the length? For me it showed `00:21:12` when I did the lookup. Which looks about correct.
