Description Canek Peláez Valdés 2007-11-21 01:16:58 UTC
gst-plugins-base-0.10.15 decodebin cannot play MP3 files with ID3 tags; 0.10.15 is fine.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install gst-plugins-base-0.10.15
2. Try to play a MP3 file with ID3 tags using gst-launch-0.10 -v playbin uri=file:///home/canek/song.mp3
3. gst-launch-0.10 cannot play the MP3 file



Actual Results:  
The program fails with the following error:

Setting pipeline to PAUSED ...
/playbin0/decodebin0/typefind.src: caps = application/x-id3
Pipeline is PREROLLING ...
/playbin0/decodebin0/id3demux0.sink: caps = application/x-id3
ERROR: from element /playbin0/source: Internal data flow error.
Additional debug info:
gstbasesrc.c(2099): gst_base_src_loop (): /playbin0/source:
streaming task paused, reason error (-5)
ERROR: pipeline doesn't want to preroll.
Setting pipeline to NULL ...
/playbin0/decodebin0/id3demux0.src: caps = NULL
/playbin0/decodebin0/id3demux0.sink: caps = NULL
/playbin0/decodebin0/typefind.src: caps = NULL


Expected Results:  
It should play the MP3 file without problems.

(Yeah, I know; that's pretty much all of them.)

Detected the problem when Rhythmbox didn't play my MP3 files. I had just updated gst-plugins-base, so I re emerged all the plugins, but the problem persisted.

I tried the gst-launch-0.10 program, and the same error ("Internal data flow error") appeared. Looking for info, I found similar reports on videos with subtitles in totem, so I deleted the ID3 tag from my test file and tried again: the error disappeared.

I tried re emerging media-libs/taglib and media-plugins/gst-plugins-taglib (again the last one), but it didn't solved the problem. So I went back to gst-plugins-base-0.10.14, and the file (with ID3 tags) and that solved the problem.

I keep a binary package of gst-plugins-base 0.10.15 (and 0.10.14), and the error is always reproducible: it only happens with 0.10.15, and only with MP3 files with ID3 tags.

Are you mixing stable and unstable? Upgrade gst-plugins-ugly too.
Comment 2 Canek Peláez Valdés 2007-11-21 02:27:40 UTC
Damn, you're right. I though that because I have updated all the plugins it should have worked. Sorry for the noise; please close as invalid.
Comment 3 Canek Peláez Valdés 2007-11-21 02:28:00 UTC
Look at that; I can close it myself ;)
