[Mp4-tech] Corrupt MP4 files

[Bharat Soni]

Hi,
If you have created the file in text mode (while writing the mp4
file), it will insert the special characters in it. If later on you
try to open the same file in binary mode, those special characters
will appear in the binary mode also. So probably this will be invalid
mp4 file.
To create a valid MP4 file, you have to open it in a binary mode only
while writing.
Regards,
Bharat
