[BUG] Waveform Preview No Rendering in new build
« on: October 14, 2025, 11:40:28 PM »
The Waveform Seeker reports:
[Waveform Unavailable - Cannot Be Processed]

Tested with multiple types of tracks and different settings within the widget like legacy rendering.

Win10

Are the files on a NAS by any chance?

Sort of! I just realized that it generates fine for local files, but not for the ones on a mounted network drive.

What I've tested:

mp3 on my mounted "User" drive, U:/  Waveform works
mp3 on my mounted "Media" drive, M:/ Does not work

So I tried matching permissions, full control, owner, re-mounting a new network drive, network share, different letters, putting it in the root of the drive, still does not work.

I find this odd, and I know it's low-priority and i don't know if anyone else has this issue. But it's such a cool, useful plugin. If you want to pursue it I can dump logs.

Indeed that is odd especially if the permissions appear to be ok. Only thing would be for me to try to report back what a potential error code from the attempt might be otherwise it should be down to the OS to prompt if needed to get the permission needed to access things if there's a problem afaict (at least that's what I vaguely remember it trying to do with accessing some network shares).
