No m4a support?
Hi there,
I just tried to Huffduff an audio file in m4a format, and it told me "MUST BE AN AUDIO FILE". Hmmm. This IS an audio file. (The file in question is http://www.boxesandarrows.com/files/b...
Are there any plans to add m4a support? Lots of podcasts seem to be in this format.
Cheers,
Martin Polley

Inappropriate?Hmmm... right now what happens is that I do quick header request to the file and check to make sure the content-type contains the string "audio". Theoretically this should catch m4a files (content-type: audio/mp4a-latm).
Either Boxes and Arrows is serving up m4a files with the wrong mime-type or (more likely) I'm doing something wrong in my code. I'll look into this as soon as I have a chance (I'm travelling right now so it might be a little while until I can roll out a fix).

Inappropriate?Okay. It should be catching .mp4 files now. The form checks for content-types of "content-stream" as well as "audio". Seems to work for the Boxes and Arrows material. It should work for any other .m4a files too.
