Hello,
I'm sorry for the late response.

At the moment this part is working more or less like a charm. So I'm not worrying at the moment.

Another big problem is that this part isn't working at all. I mean that I'm not able to write any audio in an empty mp4 file. But this isn't part of this question.
So I think I will open another one for this problem.

Thanks for this information!
