[Bug 1220764] Re: Rhythmbox does not add VBR headers when ripping CDs to MP3
apport information
** Tags added: apport-collected trusty
** Description changed:
When ripping CDs to MP3 using Rhythmbox, by default they are VBR,
because this is the default preset that is used in
/usr/share/gstreamer-0.10/presets/GstLameMP3Enc.prs (cbr=false). The
problem is that the VBR headers aren't added to the MP3 files, for
example:
$ mp3val 01\ -\ Gregory\ Alan\ Isakov\ -\ Dandelion\ Wine.mp3
Analyzing file 01 - Gregory Alan Isakov - Dandelion Wine.mp3...
WARNING: /home/bmaupin/Desktop/Gregory Alan Isakov/This Empty Northern
Hemisphere/01 - Gregory Alan Isakov - Dandelion Wine.mp3: VBR detected, but no
VBR header is present. Seeking may not work properly.
INFO: /home/bmaupin/Desktop/Gregory Alan Isakov/This Empty Northern
Hemisphere/01 - Gregory Alan Isakov - Dandelion Wine.mp3: 9559 MPEG frames
(MPEG 1 Layer III), +ID3v2, no VBR header
Done!
This causes most programs to report incorrect track lengths, including
Rhythmbox itself and Ubuntu's default Nautilus file manager. This seems
to be a huge oversight considering this is the default behavior using
the default apps. I'm not sure when this started because I only use the
LTS versions of Ubuntu, but I know it wasn't a problem in 10.04, because
it was using a gstreamer pipeline with xingmux as opposed to gstreamer
presets, which from what I understand don't support xingmux (which I
believe adds the VBR headers).
I currently have to fix any MP3s that I generate with Rhythmbox like so:
sudo apt-get install vbrfix
cd /path/to/mp3s
find . -type f -iname '*.mp3' -exec vbrfix {} {} \;
rm vbrfix.log vbrfix.tmp

Bug 945987 is related, which is why I mentioned it in this bug. But I don't believe it's the same; it seems to me that 945987 is referring to the inability to change encoding settings from the GUI. But it doesn't deal specifically with the problem that VBR headers aren't added to MP3. This problem is mentioned in the comments for that bug (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/rhythmbox/+bug/945987/comments/28), but I couldn't find a separate bug report submitted for it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1220764 Title: Rhythmbox does not add VBR headers when ripping CDs to MP3 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/rhythmbox/+bug/1220764/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
