Hello Doug, or anyone else affected, Accepted rhythmbox into precise-proposed. The package will build now and be available at http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/rhythmbox/2.96-0ubuntu4.2 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.
Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users. If this package fixes the bug for you, please change the bug tag from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not, change the tag to verification-failed. In either case, details of your testing will help us make a better decision. Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance! ** Changed in: rhythmbox (Ubuntu Precise) Status: In Progress => Fix Committed ** Tags added: verification-needed ** Changed in: transmageddon (Ubuntu Precise) Status: In Progress => Fix Committed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to rhythmbox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/945987 Title: No Settings are available in "Preferred format", only preset defaults are used Status in The GStreamer Multimedia Framework: Incomplete Status in “rhythmbox” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “transmageddon” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “rhythmbox” source package in Precise: Fix Committed Status in “transmageddon” source package in Precise: Fix Committed Bug description: = Transmageddon = [ Description ] Transmageddon ships gstreamer preset files in a shared directory, /usr/share/gstreamer-0.10/presets. As these presets have fixed names, this is unhelpful. An upstream commit included in 0.21 moves these to a private location. [ Development fix ] Fixed in Quantal in an identical way. [ Regression potential ] If the fix doesn't work then it's possible that transmageddon won't be able to find its presets and will not be able to encode anything. [ Testing ] There should be no functional difference. Test with both the old and new transmageddon that you can still transcode some videos using a variety of settings, and that the settings you choose are the ones which are pplied. = Rhythmbox = [ Description ] No encoding preset is shipped with Rhythmbox, meaning that subpar defaults for encoding are selected. [ Development Fix ] Quantal's Rhythmbox has support for custom encoding settings. There, we've shipped the same set of "ubuntu-default" presets, but have set the default (in rhythmbox.gep) to use the user's selected custom settings. [ SRU fix notes ] We Break and Replace old transmageddons, which have a file conflict with this version. ** Thus, the Rhythmbox SRU MUST NOT be accepted, both into -proposed and -updates, without the transmageddon one. Otherwise we will introduce upgrade failures. ** [ Regression potential ] Perhaps the new settings will fail to apply and Rhythmbox will pick up a worse set than it had before. [ Testing ] Rip a CD with the new Rhythmbox with the default settings and determine that the quality and other encoder parameters are what they should be. [ Original Description ] This has been going on since 11.10 dev, maybe should be addressed In Edit > Preferences, on the Music tab the Settings button for Preferred Format is greyed out & unavailable. So there is no user available means to adjust encoding for vorbis, mp3, mp4, ect. Even using something like sound-juicer to change the very same 'Preferred.. ' is of no use, Rhythmbox doesn't use.
