All files I process with Watch cat and Stereo tool are cut off after 3 hours, 6 minutes and 24 seconds.

How to reproduce:

1) Have Watch cat version 2.023 x86_64 and Stereo tool x86_64 version 10.75 installed.
2) Create a drag and drop output in Watch cat to a Onedrive enabled path.
3) Set it to process with Stereo tool and then to normalize to -14 dB EBU R128.
4) Set it to use all CPU cores per file.
5) Have it save to FLAC with "Same as input" and level 8 compression.
6) Check the "Copy metatags from input file".
7) Drop .flac-files to process and wait until done.
8) All files longer than 3:06:24 will have their prcoessed counterparts truncated to that length.

... This is pretty problematic as I intend to release the material this week. Please advice.

I have now tried the same process with older versions of Watch Cat and Thimeo Stereo Tool. It works and the lengths are uncut!

Stereo Tool: 10.70
Watch Cat: 2.0.6

Hi! Since 10.70 works correctly and 10.75 does not, and since the upcoming ST11 release is still a way out, I suggest trying the one that comes with version 10.74 and working your way back (10.73, 10.72, 10.71) to find the latest working release, so you can get your project ready in time. https://www.thimeo.com/documentation/ve ... story.html will show you any changes you should be aware of regarding processing changes.

https://download.thimeo.com/ThimeoWatch ... 4_1072.exe
https://download.thimeo.com/ThimeoWatch ... 4_1071.exe

Good luck with your project.

edit: Also be sure to check the latest betas. I don't see anything about Watchcat in the notes so far, but this issue may be fixed soon.

Thank you. I will look into this later. For now, I'm able to work as I have the older version available at the moment. Just needed to report this as I believe it could be worth knowing.
