Is AC-3 stereo audio in M4A wrapper a supported format?

[sveakul]

AIMP 5.03 build 2394, Windows 10 x64.  Not posting this as a "bug" because it may simply be unsupported format combination.  I have an AC-3 stereo audio file with an M4A wrapper (and extension) to hold the tags, when attempting to play receive "Code: -1 (FFFFFFFF) Message: Decoder was not found for this format."  The bass_ac3.dll plugin is active.  Changing extension to *.ac3 has no effect.

File plays normally in XMPlay and MusicBee.  Can't be sure, but I seem to recall the file playing OK in an older (within a year) version of AIMP.

Ok, I was able to test the same file with AIMP 5.02 build 2369, and just as I remembered this older version plays it just fine.  Not sure whether to move this to the Bugs thread now??

I tracked this down to some kind of problem with the original cover art--when replaced with other images, file played fine.  Re-saved the original jpeg in Irfanview and added it again, now file plays fine.  I'm good with that.
