Bug 130574 – Totem can't play rtsp or any other radio stream

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Abraham Marin Perez 2006-04-20 02:59:01 UTC]

Hi all, I emerged totem with almost any option activated so it could be able to play almost anything, but there are a couple of things it won't play. On one hand, it won't play any stream through rtsp or similiar. On the other hand and although it's been merged with +nsplugin, it'll open totem separatedly when trying to play this kind of media instead of duing it from within firefox.

Here the way I installed totem:

[ebuild   R   ] media-video/totem-1.2.1  +a52 -debug +dvd +flac +gnome -lirc +mad +mpeg +nsplugin +ogg +theora +vorbis +win32codecs +xine +xv 0 kB


And here emerge --info:

BTW, I forgot to say that when failing it says something about audio codec 'Cook' not handled. That made me think of a codec or option not having been installed, but since I emerged Totem with every codec-related option I discarded it as being an error of mine (although it still could be, of course).

This is a xine issue, forwarding to media-video.

[Comment 3 Diego Elio Pettenò (RETIRED) 2006-04-23 12:37:50 UTC]

emerge -pv xine-lib please.

It seems I don't have the latest stable version, I'll update it. Hoever, I'll post this so you can see my USE flags, just in case it's a flags issue instead of a version issue.

[Comment 5 Abraham Marin Perez 2006-04-25 00:22:47 UTC]

Ok, I updated xine-lib to version 1.1.2_pre20060328-r1 and run revdep-rebuil (just in case), and yet the problem persists. Same error message.

[Comment 6 Steve Dibb (RETIRED) 2006-07-19 13:34:02 UTC]

Abraham, is this still an issue on latest versions of totem + xine-lib?

I'm afraid I won't be able to check it at the momment, I'm out of the country and won't be back until the end of August. I'll tell you then.

Sorry.

[Comment 8 Abraham Marin Perez 2006-09-01 09:18:29 UTC]

Here I am once again :-). I updated to totem-1.4.2-r1 and xine-lib-1.1.2-r2, now everything works perfectly, thanks!

Shall I close the bug and mark it as fixed or you guys do it?

[Comment 9 Mart Raudsepp 2006-09-09 13:37:28 UTC]

Closing then, thanks :)
