Description Tim Starling 2011-03-17 23:27:24 UTC
The Vorbis specification explicitly allows for the comment header packet to span multiple pages in the underlying bitstream. File_Ogg doesn't support this: it assumes that the whole packet will be contiguous on disk, and doesn't allow for page headers to be interspersed. 

This was reported on IRC when a user tried to upload an Ogg file with a COVERART comment, which contained a JPEG image encoded with base-64.
Comment 1 Quim Gil 2013-04-21 01:13:29 UTC
Is this problem still relevant? If so, should we move it to TimedMediaHandler?
Comment 2 Tim Starling 2013-04-23 03:09:12 UTC
TMH also has a copy of the relevant PEAR module, and I assume the bug isn't fixed in any copy.
Comment 3 Andre Klapper 2013-07-30 10:26:05 UTC
The OggHandler extension is not under active development anymore. It is unlikely that there will be any further active development.

OggHandler has been superseded by TimedMediaHandler:

          http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:TimedMediaHandler

Please use TimedMediaHandler instead.

Closing this report as WONTFIX as part of Bugzilla Housekeeping.

Please feel free to reopen this bug report in the future if either anyone takes the responsibility for active development of OggHandler again; or move this bug report from the "OggHandler" to the "TimedMediaHandler" component in Bugzilla if the same problem still happens when using TimedMediaHandler. Thanks.
