Observed a MEDIA_ERR_DECODE (NS_ERROR_DOM_MEDIA_FATAL_ERR (0x806e0005) - Error creating decoder for audio/mp4a-latm) error while try to play the ondemand asset from the specific source (which has one audio with supplementary audio descriptor and another audio is normal audio without any supplementary audio descriptor in PMT))

[Ramajayadevi]

This is the raw source file we used to create an ondemand asset and played in the dash reference player.

The source file has one Clean audio along with normal main audio.

mpd tried to play : http://hout-pl10d-c23.docroot.chn7fr1.eng.velocix.com/vod_edit2-1_new/vxfmt=dp/Manifest.mpd?device_profile=DASH_MT

When we played this mpd file, observed the below error,

“MEDIA_ERR_DECODE (NS_ERROR_DOM_M

EDIA_FATAL_ERR (0x806e0005) - Error creating decoder for audio/mp4a-latm)“.

But when we played the live channel, shared copy/cutv mpd which is created from same source file, its started playing without any error.

I can see some tickets were raised already to rule out this error, but still am seeing this error with the attached source.

Could you please check and support to rule out this error?

Your browser does not support the MPD-signalled mimeType audio/mp4a-latm. The packager probably needs transcode the audio to a suitable format and signal a supported mimeType and codecs.
