I had some trouble with gambas gstreamer on Elementary OS so now I'm on
Kubuntu.

I get MediaPlayer to play a mp3 file as long as it is located _outside_ my
gambas project:
  $hPlayer.URL = Media.URL("internal.mp3") ' does not play
  $hPlayer.URL = Media.URL("/home/patrik/external.mp3") 'plays

What I really do need is to play, get the duration an position for a file
bundled _inside_ my gambas project.
Is MediaPlayer capable of doing that?

If not, can MediaPlayer play a file in my gambas executable archive with
something like:
  $hPlayer.URL = Media.URL("/home/patrik/app.gambas#internal.mp3") ?
