--------------- gst-plugins-base0.10 (0.10.36-1ubuntu0.1) precise-proposed; urgency=low * debian/patches/git_timestamps_discard_issue.patch: - "don't discard timestamps when consecutive input buffers have the same ts", should fix playback pausing on mp3 to ogg transitions in rhythmbox (lp: #921071) -- Sebastien Bacher <seb...@ubuntu.com> Wed, 04 Jul 2012 16:39:25 +0200 ** Changed in: gst-plugins-base0.10 (Ubuntu Precise) Status: In Progress => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gst-plugins-base0.10 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/921071 Title: sometimes stop playing when going from an mp3 to an ogg (related to transcoding) Status in The GStreamer Multimedia Framework: New Status in “gst-plugins-base0.10” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “rhythmbox” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in “gst-plugins-base0.10” source package in Precise: Fix Released Status in “rhythmbox” source package in Precise: Invalid Bug description: Impact: sometimes rhythmbox will stop playing when going from a mp3 to an ogg song Test Case: try adding some mixed mp3 and ogg songs to your playlist and see if the music stops when going from a mp3 to an ogg one Regression potential: that's a change to gstreamer, playback could be buggy, rhythmbox could stop playing when it should not --- After upgrading to 12.04, rhythmbox will sometimes stop playing daap files, only to after a few minutes start playing a different file again. Ie, if I connect to a mt-daapd server running lucid with rhythmbox on precise, I can play individual files fine. I have selected to have songs play in random order, and rhythmbox will continue to the next song fine. Occassionally audio will stop in one of the songs and then minutes later it will start up again (with no user interaction) in another song. When it does stop, I can click to fast forward to another song and it works ok. This does not seem to happen with local files (I played them for hours with no interruption), only daap served files. I have tried to correlate this with a problem with networking in precise, but do not see any messages problems in /var/log/syslog that would indicate a problem. Rhythmbox can play a mixture of ogg and mp3 files fine (ie, it is not a codecs issue). There is nothing in .xsession-errors when this occurs. I tried to strace rhythmbox at the time of the problem, but couldn't figure out what was happening. This worked fine in 11.10 and earlier.
