Rhythmbox won't play my mp3's

[Zand]

Binary package hint: rhythmbox

Rhythmbox was working fine, but it suddenly started getting import errors on all my files. The error messages say: "Problem occurred without error being set. This is a bug in Rhythmbox or GStreamer" and "The GStreamer plugins to decode "SMIL document" files cannot be found". I personally have changed nothing, I can only guess that an automatic update has caused this problem. Please help!!

Running Ubuntu 8.04 with version 0.11.5-0ubuntu8 version of rhythmbox and gstreamer0.10-plugins-base version 0.10.18-3.

rhythmbox hasn't changed in hardy, that's probably due to something you installed rather.

Thank you for taking the time to report this issue and helping to make Ubuntu better. Examining the information you have given us, this does not appear to be a bug report so we are closing it and converting it to a question in the support tracker. We appreciate the difficulties you are facing, but it would make more sense to raise problems you are having in the support tracker at https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu if you are uncertain if they are bugs.

I would have thought that the fact that the error message says it's a bug when it's not a bug would in fact make it a bug... :-s

Since the auto-updates released last Friday rhythmbox has being working ok again, thanks for your help.
