Thanks, I've been told the seriousbitch sample seems to contain an
MP3 stream, which might be the cause of the problem... Then, I guess
it's sad one cannot even "open" auch a file to read its parameters
only...

In any case, I'd be interested to know how to use Carbon modules to
take the extra step via Quicktime to access the audio parameters
and possibly even the data, if anybody knows how to do that...?

Thanks,

Dinu
