Hello, it seems that mediaInfo dll cannot read too long file path (>255) like this...

\192.168.6.152\360store\FOOK\SOURCE\TestArchive\ARCHIVE 1\IgnitionMover\DiskC\Users\Administrator\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\CertificateTransparency\241_platform_specific\all\sths\34bb6ad6c3df9c03eea8a499ff7891486c9d5e5cac92d01f7bfd1bce19db48ef.mp4

if I copy the file in a shorter directory path, it works...

Regards,

Fooky

Right, we rely on the "standard" Windows API, without handling the long form. Doable, but nobody took the time to add the code for handling long file path.
