Windows 7 x64 Ultimate in default installation, no codec packs.
Description
QMediaPlayer fails to play (and QAudioDecoder fails to decode) the attached MP3 file on Microsoft Windows. QMediaPlayer plays this file file on Linux and Mac, and Windows Media Player plays it fine on Windows in default installation (no codec packs), as well as GStreamer on Windows.
The problem seems to be that the file contains prepend ID3v2 tag. I have a workaround in my code where I pass a fake QIODevice which just strips the tag, as you can see here: https://github.com/gyunaev/karaokeplayer/blob/master/src/universalplayer_qmediaplayer.cpp - but this is obviously a workaround and not a solution.
