Hello,
I am struggling with Movie Importer component and AudioCodec component.


My Importer requires to pass additional infomation to AudioCodec.

If I understand you correctly, I think we normally call this a magic cookie - its data specifically related to the audio codec being used


I want to embed special atom container inside sample description of the audio media.
Is it available to access sample description for the Audio Media?

This is really a question for the QT API list; but in general this is done by understanding what the official "magic cookie" information is for that format, and then how this would be stored in a movie (or other file type)



In case of video codec, I can embed special ImageDescription Extension inside
ImageDescription(SampleDescription);
So that my video codec can receive additional information from importer component.


But from AudioCodec point of view, it seems that AC does not allow direct access
to sample description atom of Media inside Movie.

Yes - this is a QT file concept. Audio codecs deal with the basic information they need:
What is the exact format (AudioStreamBasicDescription)
Audio Codec specific information (if any) (magic cookie)
If surround - what is the meaning/order of the channels (AudioChannelLayout)

Any suggestion please, if I could?
